Defense at least held USF to FG's. That TD was not the Defense's fault. But the TO's are killing us. Dropped passes. Poor passes. Really wont surprise me if Kelly goes with a new QB in 2nd half simply to shake up the team and let every starter know that his own job is on the line.

 

[MDewFiend]

big k better put his foot so far up the players rears that Mayb, just mayb their collective heads will POP out. we still have a chance.

 

[Mr. McGibblets]

No sense in everyone starting mini-arguments prior to halftime and getting banned for a day or 2. Everyone relax and at least wait til after the game to get banned..

 

[GBdomer]

anybody else drunk? thats all i will say about the first half.f

 

[Rhode Irish]

I know this isn't what people want to talk about, but next year can we start with freaking Central Michigan or Northern Iowa or something? I wonder how many other "good" teams came out flat today and nobody noticed because they played Akron?

We are where we are today not because of our talent, but because of stupid turnovers and stupid penalties. Obviously that is part of the game, but this is why other teams open up with patsies.

 

[IrishInFl]

Id rather see hendrix then gholson, D is getting no pressure without these all out blitzes. PUT IN THE BEAST.

I'd rather see anyone who is not Dayne Crist.

 

[IrishMoore1]

Put in Rees!

 

[North Buffalo Irish]

is it just me or does anyone else think if we put Rees in it would be worse?

Agreed, he's a manage-the-game guy. Unless Rees' throws have a special power that sticks to our receivers' hands, we are pretty much ****ed no matter what.

 

[Golden_Domer88]

USF is fast. So what was the whole "best players will play" saying? Fox is garbage. Put nix and lynch in. Wheres Shembo? If Crist comes out running this offense in the second half....i have lost all respect for BK this game. GO THE ****ING PLAY MAKERS!!!! (Floyd and wood) or hey put one of those FAST freshman WR in! Great Job DEFENSE! Only thing that I am proud of right now.

Schedule is set, but I know what you are saying....

I haven't been drunk in like three months. That may change after this game.

 

[e34croak]

Not Possible.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

I'm only hoping this is an epic comeback like MSU in 2006

 

[Riddickulous]

I reiterate my belief that we would be winning, right now, without these mental mistakes.

If sarcasm was intended in the question, then thats fine--as if you were waiting for some other maniac to pose that question. But if you were serious, it was a pretty weak question.

It was sarcasm, as are 80% of the posts on here. Sorry SW got bent out of shape. If the team looks like this all year though, it might come to fruition. I personally still think they'll have a good year. But they look like a 7-5 team right now, and you don't start in the top 25, finish 7-5 and keep your job at ND.

For the record, and before all of you get your undies in a bundle, I believe in BK and I expect a huge 2nd half.

 

[DuffHouse12]

lets get lynch tuitt nix and ishaq in every down.

and we need to stop with this back off coverage, playing guys 10 yards off the line... killing us with the dink and dunks.

You, sir, are correct.

But, I'd still almost be up for a QB change.

You think the defense is the problem?

Not to mention Taylor Dever is getting his butt whipped out there.

 

[Lepresean]

Dayne Crist admitted to being a USC fan as a child, anyone thinking sabotage?

 

[Riddickulous]

You think the defense is the problem?

Defense has allowed only two scoring drives that weren't handed to USF, amounting to six points.

 

[GowerND11]

I feel on offense we need to throw some screens, ala the 1st play of the game. We also did a good job running the ball out of the shotgun. Stick to what works.

 

[Rhode Irish]

We were down 14 at halftime against UM last year, Dayne brought us back. He can do this, but we have to play a clean half (no turnovers, no penalties). If we get a score, all of a sudden USF tightens up, and we can win the game.

 

[jfjkd01]

If I said it once I'll say it again, Crist is not the guy, and I don't want to hear any excuses from these Cali people on here. No more ******* excuses! If he can't win with this defense he shouldn't be the starter, so please Kelly put in Rees, who is a WINNER!!!!!!!!

 

[Who'saWildManNow]

Floyd needs the ball.. plain and simple.. this is sickening. Dropped passes, fumbles, bad play calls.

Not bent out of shape...however "...Who will be the coach..." "...player development..." post- come on man. Really.?...not the only person that thought those posts were "lame."

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

Time to wake the F U C K up!!!!!!

Get your heads out of your asses and let's go.

 

[military_irish]

I need to watch something funny so I am currently watch Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle on Comedy Central. Something to get me relaxed again.

I have faith in this team 100% but they have a bunch of mistakes that need to be address at halftime.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

Mike Floyd didn't need to hold on that TD...TJ Jones drops a TD...Jonas Gray turned the game around...Ben Turk still sucks! Ugg...If the deer wasn't banned today, he would have gotten banned after the first quarter!

 

[Rudy89]

i have no optimism at all guys im sorry if i acted out but i dunno if we have it in us for a good season if we play like that sorry but you gotta show me something before im optimistic and all this has shown me is we are being exposed, embarrassed, and proving our haters right
