Navy Postgame

[IRISHDODGER]

There are zero people on the planet who put ND-Navy on par with ND-USC or any of the rest of those games.

I know, that’s why I posted that as a response to someone who does think the Navy game is part of the pageantry and tradition of CFB. JFC

The one unique thing about this years matchup was zero turnovers. We usually feast on turnovers against better Navy teams. Navy actually played their A game and we played a F game for the first half (at least on defense) we played a B game second half while Navy played a C game. We have yet to plate 4 quarters of B level football. We can win next week with a B+ result.

I could be wrong here but I feel like in years past, Navy would get a ton of turnovers on the outside pitch and went heavy qb run and power run in the first half to prevent those types of turnovers.

This season is the most reminiscent of 2007 we've had in quite sometime.

Care to elaborate further on the 2007 comment? I feel like since we aren’t stinking up the stadiums & have more than twice as many wins this isn’t quite like 2007 but I’m interested in hearing more of why you feel this way.

Not ND specific 2007, but in 2007 no top team was safe from upset. Considered one of the most chaotic seasons ever.

Sorry for triggering everyone with mention of that season. lol

I knew Beau was Brian Kelly’s burner

I would never throw fifty times in a fucking hurricane.

I wanted us to have Zaire run his damn high school option offense and rack up 450 on the ground.

Gotcha, my bad on that. I might’ve been the only one that failed to pick up on that seeing as how I don’t think anyone else posted anything similar. I just think of Notre Dame as the only thing to care about in college football & don’t care to follow anyone so my only memories of 2007 are….not good. Besides watching the Duke game at a restaurant in Chicago with some alumni which was pretty cool.

I fail to understand why both coordinators act weird in the first half week in and week out only to make adjustments and look like a totally different team in the second half. It's been the story of the season thus far for me.

There was no big adjustment on offense. Gilbert wasn’t paying attention during the same RPO they ran like 8 times in the 2H. It’s the defenses fault the third drive was with two minutes left.

Felt like they ran the ball a bit more, Walton got touches, but whatever.

I'm begging to see Bubba on a KOR, not slow-ass Williams.

Thought i read somewhere Seider leads the kick return unit and only picks his unit to return kicks.

That would explain the lack of Frazier or Robinson (hell, even get Graham a touch).

Weird that Biagi doesn't control all ST personnel.

Because wanting to play Navy makes you honorable? GFYS

Yes, every damn year until they call it off. Notre Dame does not have any agency in this debt of honor.
We pledged, they accepted. We're Chewbacca here, not Han.

If you do not understand, then maybe your idea of honor needs some work. Convenience is not a valid excuse.

I have no issue with playing navy. I also have no issue with Notre Dame threatening to end the series if they continue to chop block.
