Ian Book is the best QB we’ve ever had! Not even that close

I think that was his best!

Good for Javon!!!!!

JM good catch!

 

[Luckylucci]

There ya go. Beautiful 50/50 shot by Book. What a turn around over 5 minutes of football

 

[GowerND11]

Good thing Book is a good scrambler since our OL is struggling to block garbage ass Cuse.

In fairness, their D is pretty good. Lead the nation in takeaways, and get decent pressure. They just don’t look good on a lot of stats because their constantly on the field.

 

[KPENN]

That escalated quickly.

 

[irishff1014]

But...but it was his 1st TD of the season lol

Damn I thought I remembered him have some. My bad

After all the complaints, we’re up by half the spread at the half. For those worried about appearance, I get it but Clemson was up 6 on Syracuse with 1:30 left in the 3rd quarter.

Guys, we’re good. Deal with it

JM! BTW, was Tremble trying to get a taunting penalty?

This is what great teams do. Capitalize on bad team's mistakes and step on their necks after. Syracuse needed to play a perfect game to keep it close.

 

[irishff1014]

It's also Javon's first score of the year.

I was predicting the future lol

 

[NDBoiler]

Great turn around to end the half

 

[Riddickulous]

Book 21/29 for 252 yards and 2 TDs in one pretty sloppy half. I'll take it.

 

[InKellyWeTrust]

Great ending to a lackluster first half!

 

[notredomer23]

Book’s playing his way into a team wasting a late round pick on him

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

Book 21/29 for 252 yards and 2 TDs in one pretty sloppy half. I'll take it.

And that's counting 4 full on drops.

Thank you team for waking the F up.

For a while, felt like the makings of a game the committee would love to point to in order to say, "nah... "

Yep. The Notre Dame of the past two or three decades would be up like 10-7 right now.

New Notre Dame overcomes the slop and takes advantage of mistakes

 

[T-Boone]

I think JOK needs to come back.

Let's not forget some pretty shoddy OL play at times

Lets have a look at who ever the back up rover is.
Lets have a look at Jordan Johnson and get the ball to Lenzy.
Get Cbo out there and bench Kyren.

One more half until an undefeated regular season boys. Obviously not a national championship but a damn big accomplishment nonetheless.

I’m good with it but it does give me pause as to what Venables will cook up for 12/19. This is the second game in a row where the OL couldn’t come out and impose their will on a bad defense. Maybe it’s the changes up front but Clemson won’t have any trouble eliminating the run game if the OL can’t get the newcomers to gel ASAP. Kraemer was announced to be available in an emergency. I don’t think anyone thought it would actually come about...especially so early.

Dominate the second half ASAP so they can get the staters our and get better over the bye.
