Its men against little boys out there. Usc is bigger faster and stronger and better coached. Sad thing is.....we cant move the football against a defense that lost 9 starters last year. I know its not over YET, BUT I'm just stating obvious facts. Were lucky to not be down by more points.

Yeah I've noticed this as well, I just figured he was lulling Carrol into a deep sleep, time for the rope-a-dope

GTFO. We're down by 6 and the defense is playing brilliantly. Take your anti-Irish bullshit off the board.

It's like people expect them to reload with dummies. These players have been in the system for a while now

Guys it is obvious, Their Dline is manhandling our Oline, We just gotta pray that the D holds up and we can make a big play on O.


God Bless the Irish.

Clausen has connected on his last four throws and is now 7-14 for 48 yards.

USC tackles too well for us to throw those screens to Rudolph. If you're going to throw the swing, get it to Tate.

I think we could really get Clausen in rhythm if we just put Rudolph over the middle.

i just wish harrison smith would play like he did last year. he literally just roams around in the secondary and misses tackles.

Not protecting your QB

Not getting after the opposing QB =

The WRs got to do a better job getting open... It's a good thing that ND is only down 6...

if its men against boys then Weis is outcoaching Carroll....if we should be down by more, then Weis is again outcoaching Carroll

What is wrong with Brady Quinn, he's had what, four starts, give him a chance, and some protection.

Short routes and vicious running, it's time to find a sizable, vicious lead blocker. Make people thing twice about approaching a hole.

Have you guys noticed this year that every time we have a huge momentum changing play, it gets reversed? Usually it is the right call but damn, make the right call in the first place so im not jumping up and down looking like an idiot, lol.

I agree that we have to stack the box. Force Barkley to throw, he's inconsistent and fires high on half of his throws.
