I like that Corwin is fighting for his team as well as his job in case its in jeopardy.

I Brown will be a great head coach one day. Hopefully he gets a shot at real bob not New Mexico St or Buffalo like other black coaches get.

I have to disagree. My first reaction was that I was reading, yet again, Weis' lame excuses, "...we came out in the second half, minus one mess-up, they don't get anything."

Well, what about that one mess up? What about the first half? Beat Navy more than 1/3 times and maybe he can have some credibility.

Tough talk, lackluster results. I'd like to see/hear him defend Ian Williams.

That wasnt his point. Navy's coach said we did the same thing as last year and made zero adjustments throughout, and Corwin was just refuting that.

his point was they made adjustments for the 2nd half. the score for the 2nd half was 21-9....i'd say they adjusted.

i agree the 1st half was ridiculous, but that was the topic he was talking about.

You can't put the 2 points on the defense. More like 21-7

I think you are going to see a pissed off Irish team on Saturday night. Pitt better be ready for an absolute dog fight. I just sense a team full of guys that really know they let one get away with Navy and it will not happen again.

This team did not get outplayed by Navy, they outplayed themselves. Our O moved at will. They had three HUGE turnovers and one floundered opportunity, first and goal. Our special teams missed two FG's. Our D gave up one long drive TD. The other two scores were, one only about 35 yards after the Parris fumble and the other was a screwed up coverage by Blanton.

I do not think the team views this game as, "oh my, we are not even as good as Navy". It is more, "crap, we blew that one, but we know how to play much better".
GO IRISH!!!

I like Corwin personally but I would have enjoyed this rant much more if it were after a win

The D was also put in some short field situations. They did allow NAvy too many first downs. I have to agree with Ian that we should have been able to stop these guys.

I personally like that Corwin called out the coach for the cut blocks. The play when the guy went after RJ's knee was as dirty of a play as I've seen. Bad enough that you dive at a guys knees from out of his line of sight, but then throw in the fact that it was away from the play and the play was over - that's a BS malicious move. That guys should have been ejected on the spot.

I have been saying as much regarding the chop blocks for a while, but always got the predictable "dont talk bad 'bout our heroezzz!" response. glad somebody agrees with me.

The one cut block that was flagged for a personal foul couldve ended a career. It was 50 yards away from the play, sorry I forgot who it was on but I cringed seeing that.

As far as Corwin, I dont disagree with him standing up for himself. Navys coach had every intention of propping himself up by saying what he said. There was truth to it, their plan worked to perfection but CB is correct that you dont go out and say that. Any team that defeats any other team can say the same thing.

Anyone know when the Blanton hit took place? And can you see it on the NBC game replay?

I'm obviously not very technically savy - I haven't figured out the hyperlink with this site, but this NBC article shows a clip of the play.

Now that I've watched the play again I'm even more pissed off because of the reaction by the receiver. He throws his hands up to the ref as if he wasn't aware that diving at a player's knee from behind was an illegal play.

On second thought...i have a different opinion than I originally stated

At first I liked what Corwin said because it showed me that coaches were pissed about the loss, too. We know the players were. charlie doesn't show emotion in press conferences. Corwin got heated and I liked it.

Upon further review...this makes ND look HORRIBLE. this is notre friggin dame. their D linemen avereaged 243 pounds. they lost to temple at home. and our coaches bitch about navy playing dirty on VETERANS DAY?

wtf is going on here? even if they were throwing cut blocks ND should beat navy by three touchdowns on size and talent alone.

if corwin is pissed and thinks the stuff was dirty and wants to call the other coach, FINE. don't lash out about it to reporters. look at the national media. they're eating it up and ND looks like a bunch of overhyped, overrated whiners after losing to navy.

this is garbage

I know what Corwin's point was. I just think that he missed the point. Ok, so Navy didn't score much in the 2nd half. Something like 350 yards rushing... unexcusable.

Adjust after the first series when Navy cuts through the D like a hot knife through butter. The whole staff together acts like the Keystone Cops. That's on the head coach.

This NBC article has a clip from the cheap shot taken on Blanton. I personally love that Corwin calls out this kind of crap. This was a dirty play that could end a player's career. If that guy would've hit Blanton just a little lower or if Blanton's cleat would've planted in the turf it could've ended his career. Dirty plays happen, but a shot aimed at a guys knee when you're coming at him from behind (and nowhere near the play) crosses the damn line.

I'm calling it right now. ND beats Navy by 28 next year. IF we keep this squad together I expect it to be even worse. Number one revenge game on the schedule. Now it's a rivalry again.

Did Navy actually rush for more yards in the second half than the first?
