Pretty simple question... What do you think will be the first offensive play run against Purdue?

I think Floyd will line up in the slot and catch a bubble screen.

Make it as simple or detailed as you want. Just something to talk about to pass time.

Triple reverse and a backwards toss to Floyd, who flips it to Jones, who flips it to Crist, who fakes another reverse and then goes deep to the wide open Floyd.

First year starter. I don't think so. Play action pass bubble screen to Allen, then reverse back to Crist for a 90 yard TD run.

Tackle eligible, goal-line package, completion for gain of 2. From the Notre Dame 20. We spike the ball.

No one does it like Notre Dame!!!!

Trick question. Theo Riddick houses every kicoff/punt and the offense never takes a snap until Purdue's offense goes 4 & out towards the end of the game and we take a knee as our first offensive play.

A pass which hits a lineman and goes back into the hands of Crist, which he decides to run with the ball. He then laterals to Allen, who laterals to Floyd. Floyd then hurdles a defender and breaks three tackles, and then laterals it back to Allen for a loss of two.

my one side says it's going to be a lead or power to make sure we get positive yards. the other half of me says kelly is going all in and wants a big play

Take your pick......

1. Robert Blanton pick for a score

2. Nate takes the first snap for a quarterback sneak and is out for the season.

3. TJ slot route with a come back for 10 yds.

4. Rudolph go route up the middle for 25 yds.

We come out in The Wish bone with Hughes, Allen, Theo in the bone with Floyd wide right.....we shift to spread leaving only Huges in the back field.... quick pass to Theo for 8 yard gain.... and We never see the wish bone ever again...... STAMP IT... LOL... yea, that would be dumb and will never happen.....

After the first offensive play of the year, I may go ape and spank my pet snail. I'm tired of being offended by lack of tackling, and tired of spanking cute puppies and kitties after offensive ND football action. This season I shall take it out on the snail problem I have out my front door. Escargo.

11 yard pass to Kyle Rudolph and Cierre Wood will score the first rushing TD of the year.

going to throw a fade to floyd, which will put ND on the 2 yard line where they then throw three more unsuccessful fades and settle for a FG......wait

Revision: Handoff to Cierre Wood, who turns the corner, reverses field, does a Barry Sanders esque twenty yard swing deep into the backfield, jukes out one fool, hurdles another three, spins and jukes to elude two more, trucks another, hurdles an eighth, spins, jukes, and hurdles the final three, is wrapped up by six players who have since gotten up from their schoolings, drags them fifty yards downfield. Fifty yards later, one remains hanging onto his back. Wood grabs this lone fool, tucks him under his free arm, and carries both him and the ball the remaining thirty yards to the endzone. Touchdown Irish. Wood is handed the Heisman Trophy on the spot.

Crist to Rudolph in the middle of the field for 8 and he drives for 7 more. Maybe i"m just dreaming that we can use the middle of the field for passes again.

Or that our head coach doesn't forget that we have a 6'6 tight end that's really good.
