They've been to OU, UGA, and Bama already as well as covering Texas twice.

That explains it.

“Fear” and “worry” are the last 2 emotions that this game and opponent should evoke. It’s a good team in the biggest spotlight they’ve had in what, the last decade? ND has played in 5 games like this already this year. If the guys prepare like they can (and should) this can be a route.

I’ll be at this one with a bunch of Pitt fan friends. Rocking the kelly green blazer and shamrock tie.

Anyone else who is going, DM me. I could use some backup at the tailgate.

 

[GATTACA!]

That's great! I'm bringing a sign. Who all should I put on it? Spell, Jacob's, Fakatou, Henderson... who else??

I live 3 and a half hours from Pitt. Had been planning on going to this game for 2/3 years. Of course they schedule it on my wife’s birthday and she nixed it. Need a win otherwise it’s going to be one awkward birthday dinner

Time to trade her in for a new model that has the ND Football option installed.

Typical upper mid tier opponents Super Bowl so we need to be on point.

As long as we don’t turn the ball over we should handle them by at least two scores.

They sell out on the run as a scheme & therefore avg 80 yds a game against them, one of the lowest in the country, so it will be another game where Carr will need to punish them through the air.

I still yearn for Love in the slot, Price in the backfield with Fields boundary, Faison field & Raridon tight.

The RPOs could be a nightmare for defenses..

Holy shit, if I saw this on the broadcast I would die!

What Did Davonte Do?

Did Brick PIIHB?

"What da Fakatou lookin' at?"

I think if you’re ND you welcome the circus Pitt is going through. Lot of media hits, Aaron Donald celebration, GameDay. All foreign for them. Pretty normal for us.

Do we get a Minchey package late in garbage time?

An interesting factor depending on game state, Pitt still has everything in front of them for the ACC and a tough stretch left. Like Navy basically. Nardog is not the type, but forward thinking decisions could have to be made.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

They have a very good kicker.

#0, their MIKE LB, is a good player. They have a very good run defense.

Not the time to fuck around and find out. If they're off it, they'll lose. If they play like they have been playing defensively and take care of the ball, they'll get it done.

 

[notredamermotherpray4us]

"What da Fakatou lookin' at?"

Lol that one's great! Along with what did Davonte do...
I jumped the gun about going to game day though. I'm not gonna get to the stadium till around 10am and then I'm just gonna sit in the parking lot and start drinking beer.

How is their secondary?

[Jiggafini19Deux]

How is their secondary?

Their pass defense is bottom third of the FBS, but their pass rush is pretty good.

There will be opportunities for Carr to rip it up a bit.

I didn’t even have to watch a single snap to know this is 100% true

Legend????!

This guy made Dayne Crist look like an over achiever.

He's not analytical enough to think big picture. He's a meathead and is going to want to win this game like it's the Super Bowl.

That's just my hunch and I could be very wrong, but he's another one of these guys that has a hardon for ND.

 

[IrishBryan77]

Pitt AND narduzzi can lick my taint.....JUST the taint. (After a long workout and sauna session)

 

[Dale]

Gray is not on the injury report

Flanagan is questionable. Would think he plays given he can redshirt and finish the season at this stage

Hinish is questionable

 

[dang227]

Love that gameday will be there and will focus the boys that this is a big game

[Jiggafini19Deux]

They're better with him healthy.

I think if he's playing I'm not even sure Navy gets what they got. Pitt away will be a much stiffer challenge.

 

[sixstar]

Pitt has a very strong run D. we need Carr to stretch them early. haven't seen any this year, but might be a good game to throw in a few RB draws if the pass game is clicking.

Koon would've have gone to the game....You're definitely NotKoon

Sorry, I couldn't help myself.

 

[Some Irish Bloke]

I think Gameday being there is a good thing; more of a spectacle this is, the better for ND to avoid a sleepy noon start. Give me all of the spotlights.

I'm not too worried about how good Pitt's run D is, our run O is pretty good too. It just takes one little crease for Love or Price to make a house call. Stack the box all you want, Carr already had his down game against BC and still made some plays. Malachi and Faison are ready to feast.

Doesn't have to be close. Go Irish.

*Context was we have beat them 103 - 10 in the last two games
