Sampson basically said the honeymoon period with freeman learning on the job is over and a new phase begins. Patience is gong to run thin.

Freeman knew they had 10 men but didn’t want to take the penalty to allow OSU to regroup. Parker is outsmarting himself in key situations getting too creative. Going away from their identity.

Compares the losses to USC), Michigan, FSU, Clemson, etc… however OSU was the most vulnerable of the bunch.

I think Al Washington might have to go. We’ll see how the DL does the rest of the year.

And, beyond the obvious of having no clue what his DL was doing in the last two plays of the game.

I guess I didn’t notice this during the game but Onye didn’t see the field for a single defensive snap.

After the best game of his career, he gets benched. That sounds familiar.

Good god. Shit happens. Lost to an evenly matched team. Now if the season goes down the tubes there are concerns but let’s not act like losing to a top 5 team is a reason to fire Marcus. People need to get a grip. Still have a marque matchup against a top 10 team in USC. Let’s go baby.

My guys lost a NC when Clemson ran the same fricking pick play at the end of the game that they had scored on earlier in the game. Should Saban have been fired? No. Kirby has won the last two NCs even with his below average game management.

Freeman is an excellent up and coming coach who has what I think is the “it” factor. Great recruiter and good but not yet great coach. The only failure from last night is if he and his staff doesn’t learn from it. He will get the Irish there if he stays in South Bend. Bookmark this post.

Onye didn’t play at all? That’s crazy. Was he dressed and cleared to play?

What should have happened was our DT barreled their center pre snap and taken the penalty if you’re gonna send 10 out there for two straight plays and you knew it. I doubt he did.

Did he know they only had 10 the play before? I assume we’ll find that out tomorrow

I heard on one of the many pod cast that I have listened to today was that a few players were I’ll and not sure if he was one.

They have a very athletic defense that is solid but not quite elite. The offense should be able to grind down everyone on their schedule with the OL, the brigade of RB and the Prince who was Promised. I think we're going to see some Evans and Staes as well going forward.

The last offensive possession and last defensive stand were the lasting impressions of a game where ND was awesome for 55 minutes but gave away a win in the last five.

Absolutely gutted they were playing their best ball the last 2 possessions only to have it taken out of their hands by dumb play calling. Parker better show better than this from here on out because the dudes are too good for that.
