The cheap shot right before half on Jayson Ademilola by Walker Parks wasn’t even the first one. Parks shoved JA down after the Foskey sack 20 seconds earlier. JA was pissed and Foskey had to calm him down and usher him away only to have Parks give him an even more egregious cheap shot.

College kids having fun, I doubt they were insulting the religion.
It's the sort of cringey bullshit that got Stanford's band barred from campus. They may just be thoughtless undergrads, but the fact that they keep getting away with it indicates that no one is pulling them up short for it, which doesn't speak well of the culture on campus at the moment.

Lord knows I'd be offering them some "fraternal correction" were I still in Keenan Hall.

I put this game in the 38-0 Michigan shutout and I love the Brandon Wimbush beat down of Sam Darnold of USC. Total domination that night and we were underdogs.

BTW I called the ND Syracuse score of exactly 41-24 and this week I was off as I only picked ND to win 31-17. My bad. Damn touchdowns!!!

Seriously it’s the week after Halloween and a prime time game of course there going to where costumes. It’s dumb to get upset at this.

Fair. But I honestly would have picked a fight with them 13 years ago when I was still on campus. Impiety has always bothered me.

This isn't a Halloween gag. That group of undergrad guys shows up dressed as nuns for every home game.

Umm. Have I missed it before but why are students dressed as nuns in the stands?

I'm glad someone brought this up. I'm not Catholic, but I was pissed off that they were allowed to get away with that but I wasn't sure if others here would feel the same about their own religion. I couldn't think of something in my religion that would be an exact parallel, but it is seriously disappointing seeing people that make light of what others consider sacred even if it's their garb.

I wish ND admins would do something about it.

Can we start a new thread where we talk about the terrible music that is at Notre Dame Stadium? Can someone with access to the school get in Marcus Freeman's ear about potentially hiring someone to take over that aspect of the gameday experience? I think it's important that we have a nice blend with the band, and honestly wouldn't be totally against the band full-time compared to the music that comes through the TV. But we are at a point where it's GLARINGLY BAD. Almost taking away from the majesty of the stadium honestly. It's straight disrespectful to Knute, Ara, Leahy, etc.

I think we as a board could come up with a better plan and execute that plan than whoever is doing it currently. And shit, if it gets me a box seat for home games I'll go down and execute the plan for free every game if someone will train me how to work the aux.

You need to have music and light shows just bc the players and recruits love it. Just the way it is.

ND’s music selection is the most cringe inducing mess of a mix I’ve heard at a big time sports event. Like truly embarrassing. Freeman and Rees aren’t old. They know it too.

I agree. I think the right music in any setting will make it exponentially better. But I know that equally the wrong music in any setting makes it exponentially worse. We are the latter.

By all accounts last night was the best atmosphere in years. I think they’re doing just fine and when the whole stadium went nuts over Mo Bamba, that came through the TV so well even I got hype. Keep the music and CRANK IT LOUDER

Listen, I think people are reading my original message wrong. I love the idea of music being used. And the light show i think was great. My bigger issue is the music being used is terrible. Like 20 years out dated! By all means, pump Mo Bamba! That would be a breath of fresh air! My issue is the music choices are repeated over and over and they are just not great songs tbh. We gotta do better because as I stated a couple messages above: bad music makes an experience exponentially worse, just as much as good music makes it exponentially better.

Agree 100%. During the Stanford game I remember they did that thing where they let people text in their vote to pick a 3rd quarter song. The choice was Eye of the Tiger or Sweet Caroline. Two absolute boomer snoozers. Like come on.

The University sent me a survey the week after the game about my experience and I spent the whole thing shitting on the music. It has to be better. MMFF has swag and is trying to make ND cool again. Fix the music.

Sweet Carolina has been a band and student favorite for like...at least 15 years.
And only Beta males hate on Eye of the Tiger.
That 4th down Techno thing they play really needs to go though. It's awful.

is there somewhere to look up special team stats? I want to look at the list of leading punt blocks and the gap to the next best.

And what’s the common denominator between all 15 of those years? ND hasn’t been cool in any of them.

That 3rd/4th down music should be the priority though. That audio of the creepy little girl is so cringey too.
