I know the 'first half' of the season is over but is Quinn's could've been game winning drive been lost among all the other stuff?

I've been an ND fan for a long time and I don't recall a drive that was as well executed. From play calling to execution, it was one the best drives I've seen in a long time. Even better than Mirer game winner in the 'Snow Bowl' against PSU.

True if you go head to head BQ vs. RM. However RM had more help, (i.e. Reggie Brooks and J-Rome), so one could plausibly say that BQ's drive was better. However, RM's did in fact win the game AND he made the 2pt conversation toss as well...

I'm not speaking from an outcome stand point, but an execution stand point. The Mirer drive had a sack, a helter skelter scramble. There were moments where the outcome was in doubt. In short it work but wasn't pretty.

Quinn's drive was a thing of beauty. They only had two second downs the entire drive. Every play worked as drawn up. Three plays into Quinn's drive I knew it was going to end in a TD

i agree, Quinn's and the Irish offense's execution was flawless

Hear, hear. And that drive just had a sense of destiny about it. If we'd stopped USC on their final possession, Brady Quinn's drive would've ruled the water cooler talk on Monday. Instead, it got overshadowed by the finale of the game.

But wow. What. A. Drive.

By far the best he looked all day. And the offense as a whole.

I'm a big believer or executing when it matters. When Alex Rodriguez hits a solo home run with a 7-2 lead, YAWN. Those 11 men did that at the end of the game. And the coaches mapquesting them to it did a phenomenal job of guiding them.
