The emergence of the special teams is awesome. They are playing great. I love JD as the returner. The defense and the DB’s have been playing lights out! They are one of the best. I kinda hope we can keep Golden. JD and love are going to be sick next year while Estime is trucking in the NFL. Great win.

The only bad thing today was the offensive overall. Wish they would have called the down field route to Tobias earlier. Open that field up for the running backs. I still am
Not sold on Parker. He has a lot to prove. I like Sam he is A good QB but not a game changer.

Lovely win. Faison keeps looking pretty good. I'd say best walk on ever.

Our turn overs have probably gone from bottom 10 to top 10 in the last 2 weeks.

Vegas made some money on this one………interesting side note, if you take out the two defensive scores and the special team score (21 points) the total points were 44. Just under the 44.5 line.

For all the arguments of Kelly “always beating the teams we should” vs. Freeman, we are absolutely kicking the shit out of unranked teams this year. Average margin of victory of 37.8! Taking the FCS opponent out, still an average margin of victory of 34 points.

We have also covered the spread in 7-9 games this year. Beating Vegas as well.

If we can get the offensive side of the ball figured out, watch out.

That's just amazing.

Like... they didn't just transpose some numbers or get the DOB wrong.

They totally went all in on 30 years old and how crazy it is.

ND deserves better than this Walmart ass broadcast.

Defense played great…again.

ST is playing great now too (w/ exception of the missed XP)

At first glance, OL looked to have a good game.

Hartman hasn’t looked like what we expected we were getting since the CMU game. He’s been solid at best.

Evans injury looked like his knee. I didn’t notice it hyperextending so maybe it was just the direct hit giving him a bone bruise or something? Hopefully Staes can return to his early season form. Does Raridon finally get a target or two if Evans is out?

Jaden Thomas looked to aggravate his hammy. I think it’s safe to say that he can’t be counted on from here on out. Still can’t tell if Greathouse is struggling physically or just not getting open. I was hoping one of those 2 made their presence known today.

Happy for Tobias. Didn’t do a ton but he made the most of his opportunities. Hope he can build on it next week.

I’m now confounded as to whether the lack of offense is due to GP, Hartman, WR corp or all of the above.

BK Is Garbage. I wanted Weis to stay back in 2008. Bk Is the worst thing that ever happened to Our program..

I will never forget the look in his eyes while in that Tunnel during the NCG, January 2013, while looking at Alabama. We were beat before we stepped on the field and BK only had to act the part...

LSU SUCKS!

I thought Hartman was very good outside of the stupid offbalance tipped interception.

How many years have I cried? 35. We won in '93 and how about Bobby Bowden and the need from the msm to give him a ring still haunts me.

Otherwise, It's irrelevant. I'm old enough to die how I choose.

- JD Bertrand has seriously stepped up the last few games. Really want one of him and Marist to return next year.

- Al Golden might be the best DC we've had among him, Lea, Freeman, and Elko. Maybe not but he's in the discussion IMO.

- Parker was ok, solid, not great. When he runs PA it's better. I can't understand how during a game we can't find more ways to go PA to Merriweather. Why did we wait until up 40 to do that when the box is stacked all game? Not Parkers worst game though.

- Have to shout out Tyree. He's had 4 broken tackles in 4 years at ND and they call came on that one play. Really happy for him.

- Love Ford. Dude plays and blocks so hard and he plays for his teammates selflessly

- Quick reminder that J Love is Darren Mcfadden. Heard it here first.

- Young corners are studs. Not much to add. This team is having fun and that's pretty awesome given they have nothing to play for.

Make Xavier a captain for next year and let the captains drive around in leased Ferraris for the year see if he can make himself a first rounder.
