Wimbush would have held them to below 90 snaps..........

The "Wimbush would have" jokes won't ever get old.

Postgame thread?

With 300+ passing yards, and 10 different receivers getting balls, hoping we become more attractive to some WR recruits.

Postgame thread?

Just put one up.

Wimbush would have said otherwise

This is how we should have looked vs BS and Vandy. Credit to BK for making a very tough call. Props to Book for making the most of it. Hated seeing BW on the sideline though. Heartbreaking thinking of what he's going through.

Yeah, it was definitely the right call. Book was outstanding today. Not to discredit his performance, but it will be interesting to see how he performs against a strong defense. Wake was horrible.

Was great seeing Book light them up today. I think this is the right choice, and maybe there's still some packages for Wimbush because he's a playmaker and should be on the field in some capacity. If that means cross training at RB and some HB passes, that's fine. It was the right call at the right time to make the switch though, better now than at the end of the season.

We'll know more about the team after the next two weeks.

#NotreDame coach Brian Kelly did not commit to Ian Book for rest of season. But in a candid postgame, coach said the entire offseason was spent to get Brandon Wimbush ready to beat Michigan. Which Wimbush did.

I was at this game. I moved Charlotte recently and I got tix for $25. Was a lot of fun. the offense was fun to watch. The defense looked strong fast and organized. The game was really hot. This team should be really fun the rest of the year.

 

[Irish YJ]

We can put Aaron Rodgers back there but if Chase Claypool keeps quiting on routes or getting off his route line & Boykin continues running wrong route & both of them along w/ Finke keep dropping catchable balls, it’s not going to matter. Not to mention, none of those three have shown they can get behind a defense.

Well said!

So does this mean Book > Rodgers?
