I can see electing to receive when you're expecting a shoot out and think you have the better offense. But I'd otherwise always prefer to defer and start the second half with possession. No idea why we're receiving with our current OL.

Its that schematic crap we heard so much about in 2005. Receiving team that scores a TD opening drive has an exponentially higher chance of winning.

I think we would all collectively vomit if we saw the actual % ND scores a TD on all these opening drives. Bet its sub 20%.

You know the funny thing is Coan could end up being a better NFL quarterback then some recent ND grads.

Coan is the most immobile QB I’ve ever seen. It’s a freaking joke. This is the most frustrating ND team I’ve seen in my life.

Fitting ending to a beautiful drive. I just don't understand running the ball on first AND second down from the 10. They just went right down the field via pass...... special teams continues to be a let down. Polian bringing in one kid every three years from Hawaii can't be the constant excuse as to why he's on this staff

There has to be a soccer player on campus that can also kick a football

Someone explain why we ran on 1st and 2nd down when throwing was working so well?

How was he an elite lacrosse prospect? Is that sport really that far behind football or was he a goalie?

Kelly will wait til we are down by 17 before he puts in Tyler. When Tyler brings us back he will put Coan back in and lose.

So much about this team I just don't understand.

What were those play calls? How do you not know about the strengths and weaknesses of the team you are facing? How do you call those 2 runs after what you were just doing in that situation? Fuckin how? Someone explain that to me, please.

At least the defense stepped up. Let’s see what bullshit Tommy calls this drive.
