Manuel is pretty good under pressure. Imagine if they had Rees back there!

Love it! haha my wish list looks strikingly similar.
I've only been on Game Cast (at work) haven't gotten to watch it. Is Rees really looking that bad?

Rees for the first half is all part of Kelly's plan... It's Hendrix time now.

I'd pay all of my vBucks to see Lou punch Mark May in the mouth... Even though he's right...

With the way the D is playing, the game plan is gonna be simple with a few shots down field.

Rees' best gameplan would be to just throw the ball up to the one yard line on every play... If it's caught: touchdown... If it's picked: then at least the other team has a long field.

Ok, screw this stuff. Put Golson in, roll him out the whole second half. Four touchdowns. We win big and have something to drool over for 9 months.

It would be worth it!



I kid.......

This sounds ridiculous at first glance, but the more you think about it.....

Loving the Defense tonight. But the offense is rather offensive. Really hope Hendrix gets more time and BK lets him run loose a little.

execution on O is not good. I was positive we would stall w/ Tommy in the game if we couldn't run it, and were faced with alot of 3 and 3+. Here we are.

Defense is playing lights out...only criticism is we are making Kenny the mouthpiece look as good as he thinks he is...I'm trying to decide who has better hang time...FSU QB or Punter. Geez!

Defense/ST will not hold up all night...they are going to give up 10 or so in the second half...and Offense is scaring me...they may give something away too (beyond opportunity lost costs...more like maybe a pick six or scoop and score).

Andrew at the helm please...we need some mobility and someone to create, and keep a drive alive...am I bonkers about Andrew thus far...no, but I like our chances to score with him better. He can make the throw to floyd tommy made (that floyd droppped), and a whole lot more...whats up with our receivers dropping easily catchable balls (TJ and Mike???)...again Geez!

ND had 22 yds of Offense in the 2Q.
FSU had 86.

In the 1Q FSU ran 14 plays to ND's 23 but in the 2Q Noles ran 22 to ND's 15.

Frustrating game. Turnover Tommy on the 4 yard line. Mike dropping a ball at the 10 that was PERFECTLY thrown. Ruffer missing another field goal.

Had an opportunity to get up big in that first half.

Hendrix needs to play in the 2nd half. I'm less than impressed with Rees right now.

ND is definitely missing JG running the ball. If he is playing the interception wouldn't have happened.
