Time of Possession

[BeatSC]

This ties into some of the threads where "we need a more balanced attack" or "crist needs to run the ball more" or "We need to rush the ball better". I'm getting tired of seeing our defense on the field 36 minutes a game. I think Kelly has been fortunate to pull that off at cincy but the ND oppostion is more varied and better than that at Cincy. The D has got to be getting tired. I think a good coach has got to learn to adjust and I think Kelly is a good coach. I don't think the approach at Cincy will weather the long haul at ND with our year in year out schedules & opponents. I also don't want to hear the "Wait till Kelly gets his recruits in here". We have a top 15 overall class of athletes. Kelly should be able to make them big and fast enough over the next two years. I'm just getting tired of watching ND play defense most of the game.

probably need to go watch another team then because is going to try and score as quick as possible. the problem is the lack of quality detph on the d side of the ball. at certain position it is good but overall it's not were it needs to be.

I think we have done a great job recruiting the 2011 class defensively. I think we have added some speed and talent for sure. I think next year, we are quicker across the board on defense and have alot more depth. We just need to be patient. And under the new system, Our offense is a quick paced one which wants to score quickly. Once we have more speed and talent on defense, we can rotate our guys more and keep the defense fresh.

Couldn't have tacked this on to the umpteen other threads about this?
