Bold predictions for 2013

[notredomer23]

Hopefully this will get the board's mind off of EV and EG.

-Tommy Rees throws for 2800 yards with 22 touchdowns to 13 interceptions
-Amir Carlisle will rush for 1000 yards if healthy
-Stephon Tuitt and Louis Nix each have seasons that get them drafted in the top 10.
- Taraen Folston returns a punt(okay, maybe this a little too bold) and a kickoff for a touchdown.
-ND wins 10 games.

 

[magogian]

Tuitt doesn't leave after this year.

 

[Chris P. Bacon]

Tommy- Throws for about 2,700 yards 26TD's 11 int's , I feel we're going to be throwing more than usual this year, and I really think Tommy goes all out his senior season. Kid's gotta be jacked to know he's got the reins back of this team and doesn't want to lose out again to a FROSH QB.

Cam- 1,200 tough rushing yards, 8 TD's

Carlisle- Get's hurt early and unfortunately only gets about 200-300 yds on the ground, maybe 1 touchdown.

Greg Bryant/Tarean Foster (Hope I didn't miss spell)- I think they both have about the same season that GAIII had last season.

C.Robinson- 700 yards, 6 TD's

Defense still ranks in top 10 this season, secondary become lock down studs this season, and our rush defense actually improves from last season, but we struggle because our offense has too many 3 and outs.

 

[Buster Bluth]

Brian Kelly leads this team to a national championship and then leaves, via ascending directly into heaven.

 

[ShakeDown]

Wes Lunt runs out of the tunnel as an Irish QB.

 

[KPENN]

Louis Nix wins the Heisman.... As a QB/NG
I don't break anything watching a game

 

[FearTheBeard]

I don't break anything watching a game

Now this would be a very bold prediction for me as well.
Hercules is gonna go beastmode this year, cant wait

 

[Riddickulous]

* Malik Zaire starts multiple games.

* Greg Bryant will be the starting RB by season's end.

* Tuitt only puts up 6 sacks.

* Michigan fans will only predict a 70 point win against us this year.

 

[ACamp1900]

Rees is benched during the UM game but no one else can take the tarting job away so it becomes a cartoon of pulling him one game, starting him the next... ND sets the modern turnover record for D1

Every running back becomes fumble pone or gets hurt from facing 11 man fronts every down...

Tuitt and Nix declare after Michigan State game...

Temple takes us to triple overtime...

Every single current commit bounces and we finish with the 82nd ranked recruiting class...

BK is fired and Tyrone Willingham comes out of retirement...


ACamp says he told you so...

 

[Old Man Mike]

10-2 plus a win in the bowl. Mark May publicly craps pants.

Even a few IE trolls decide that Kelly may be good afterall.

NDs recruiting class ranks second in nation on every service but ESPN.

Even I am {mildly} surprised when Jarrett Grace has more tackles than did Te'o.

ND defense scores six touchdowns. Notre Dame receives honors for six All-Americans {not all first team}. Seven players get drafted.

ND has two huge DTs sign on NSD.

Fanbase awaits next set of "impossible-to-recover-from" dramas.

Dream season followed up by nightmare offseason. Sounds about par for the course at ND

 

[pkt77242]

9-3

Rees throws for 3100 yards, 25 td's and 12 ints.

Atkinson runs for 600+ yards
Carlisle runs for 600+ yards
Bryant runs for 500+ yards

D is top 10 for the season

 

[magogian]

Carlisle- Get's hurt early and unfortunately only gets about 200-300 yds on the ground, maybe 1 touchdown.

.

What a jerk!

I'll take it!

 

[irishff1014]

9-3 with losses to USC,ASU,Michigan.

Chris Browns speed helps him to 6td catches.

The defense is slightly worse then last year.

Jaylon smiths plays a lot.

Rees gets hurt and then have no choice but to use Andrew.

We have a blocked FG to win against a team we should kill.

All bs aside this is where I would be, some good happens, some heartbreak happens and we win about eight to nine games...

This Guy, haha.


BOLD PREDICTIONS for 2013, I'm predicting it to happen, not wanting it to, bit of a difference there.

 

[notredomer23]

Cam McDaniel leaves early for the NFL.

Okay seriously though, one I forgot about was at the tight end position. I think Ben Koyack turns into a receiving type tight end and will get about 400-500 yards this year while Troy Niklas is more of a blocking tight end, but also a redzone threat for his height.

Bennett Jackson seals the Michigan game with a pick six

 

[BeauBenken]

Every EE plays.

 

[Kanye West]

Notre Dame wins 10 games.

 

[pkt77242]

Irishpat will be given a cold shower by a MOD sometime this year.

Ok that isn't very bold.

 

[greyhammer90]

Irishpat will be given a cold shower by a MOD sometime this year.

Ok that isn't very bold.

I'm calling within the week.

 

[arrowryan]

*Jarron Jones gets 5 sacks

*Jarrett Grace has over 100 tackles

*GA3 drops to the 3rd or 4th running back

*KVR has 7 interceptions and becomes known throughout all college football

*Malik Zaire starts and has a similar year that Golson had last year.

*Golson comes back in January 2014 in time for spring ball with the academic stuff cleared up. Setting up a really intense quarterback competition between Golson and Zaire.

 

[Praytorian]

The right side of the line turns out to be a strong part of our game. 2,800 yards on the ground.
Hendrix starts as he can actually run the option from the shotgun formation, and have other teams fear his running ability.
Low (1800) yards passing but C. Robinson turns out to look like a MEGATRON in the making.
D stands tall, top 10 vs pass and 5 vs the run.
We finally pull a 5 star CB.

 

[irishfan]

ND goes 10-3.

Rees/Hendrix are serviceable enough to avoid any real upsets and to keep Zaire on the bench.

Nobody cracks 24 points against us.

We have three backs run for 600 yards, but no receiver go over 600.

With Golson back and 7 returning starters each on O and D (yes, I'm counting Tuitt), we enter 2014 as a Top 3 team.

 

[DomeX2 eNVy]

The offense still has 11 full scholarship players starting the Stanford game.

 

[irishMT]

9-3 with losses to USC,ASU,Michigan.

Chris Browns speed helps him to 6td catches.

The defense is slightly worse then last year.

Jaylon smiths plays a lot.

Rees gets hurt and then have no choice but to use Andrew.

We have a blocked FG to win against a team we should kill.

We aren't losing to USC. Maybe a loss to Michigan but I think the troops will rally for that one.

I see losses to Stanford, Oklahoma, and Pitt.

 

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

All 3 of our scholarship QBs start a game.

 

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

2002 = 2013

Star misses the year due to academics, defensive power but nothing really good on offense, defense will have to win us games, we start out strong but fade at the end due to bad QB play.

 

[arrowryan]

We land a 5 recruit that currently doesn't have a thread made on IE
