1. F*** me, this sucks.

2. That Robbie Parris kid? All he does is catch first downs.

3. It looked to me like UConn won this on conditioning. It sure seemed like they had more gas left in the tank than ND did, in the second half.

4. Penalties were, again, a killer. They kept putting ND in bad down and distance situations, over and over again.

5. Armando Allen had a great game, but I wonder about his ability to carry the load. He looked gassed, late in the game.

6. Charlie is almost certainly gone. And how ironic........Clausen said that Weis would not get fired because of him. Clausen just did not look like Clausen, tonight. His numbers certainly were not bad, but he just looked like he was pressing too hard. His timing was off on quite a few throws.

7. Red Zone offense was a problem.........again. I wonder if giving Tate some looks at tailback, in the red zone, would help? You could still utilize him as a WR, by lining him up at tailback and running wheel routes with him. That might even create some very favorable matchups. If you're a D Coordinator, are you going to try to cover him with a linebacker?

8. For those who were saying that Clausen could not make the throw that Dayne Crist made, to John Goodman in the Washington State game? Did you see the throw he made to Floyd, on the play that Floyd fumbled?

kmoose, i couldn't agree with you more about jimmy, he just didn't look like himself. i can count maybe 5 to 10 balls that just didn't seem like they were in the right place or that they were forced.

redzone offense always seems like a problem imo, like maybe we don't have a killer instinct, which i think charlie has lacked his whole career.

i was depressed for 2 weeks, this week, i'm excited of new possibilities without charlie, thinking of who we might get as our next coach. i know some of you will not be happy with that statement.

i feel terrible for the seniors, and i pray jimmy and golden stay, just saying, after 5 losses, i'm looking forward to a fresh new start.
