We're on the board

[sportallyr]

TT with the first TD of the year. I love that 4 RB's have already touched the ball. Hughes looked like a beast with that run. I'm getting excited! How about a toast to the Irish!!!!

 

[SouthieND04]

Yyyyyeeeeeeessssss!!!!!!!

 

[goldenlid]

Walls is going to be a stud.

 

[Mare426]

touchdown!! Here Come The Irish!

 

[goldenlid]

Hughes just might be the next Bettis.

My Dearest Jimmy,

It has been duly noted that you are an individual short on experience. However, throwing an interception at midfield is much better than fumbling at the 10. Please get rid of the f*cking ball.

Love,

KP

 

[goldenlid]

James and Hughes just made me think things are getting better.

 

[sportallyr]

Hughes is a monster. I likes!

 

[goldenlid]

I think they have found out who they are.

 

[sportallyr]

Can we get some fricking pressure on the QB. 4 games into the season and I haven't seen this new defense get through anybody's line. Maybe we need some more Kerry Neal.

 

[KamaraPolice]

We're on the board... AGAIN? No one told me? ok, maybe I can stomach this game. I'll be back when its over.

not bad play

 

[sportallyr]

Where is John Carlson. Jimmy really needs to start looking his way instead of taking sacks and handing the ball to opposing Defensive Ends. I have watched some replays of last year's games and I saw Brady Quinn throw the ball downfield whenever nothing opened up short. Sometimes, the ball fell incomplete, but many times the receivers made plays or we got PI penalties. I'd like to see Jimmy try this a few times. I don't remember him really throwing the ball downfield since his first pass attempt in the GT game.

Brian Smith is getting some PT and looks pretty good.

 

[notredomer23]

our future is bright lads. let the freshman play

 

[sportallyr]

Way to take advantage of a bad throw by Mich St. It would be great to tie or take the lead before halftime. Come on Offense.

 

[goldenlid]

Looks like the freshmen are starting to make an impact.

 

[goldenlid]

You would think ND was winning with the cheer from the fans at halftime.

 

[notredomer23]

I have a good feeling about the 2nd half.

 

[Junkhead]

Brian Smith and Kerry Neal should be the starting OLBs! Smith looks good fighting off blocks, and both look to have good size for a frosh LB. That and the Hughes and Aldridge runs are a ray of hope.

 

[sportallyr]

It's about time we get some pressure on the QB. I loved what I saw from Neal and Smith in the 2nd quarter. I think that we have found our future stud outside LB's. Lets get Toryan Smith into the game for Vernaglia, who has literally done nothing in the first 3+ games. Hope Charlie gives em a big time halftime speech and gets them to come out fired up in the second half. I think if we get a lead in this game, our running game will take over and we will win. We really need to get a lead though!

 

[NDFan4Life]

Things are looking very good. Just a few miscues. The offense and defense are playing 100% better. Now the special teams need to get going.

GO IRISH!!!

 

[CLEARWALL]

Wish our DLine could get the same pressure that we did at the end of the half. Lets keep it up!

 

[Nuffsed]

Dline has never been the problem. They are probably the best group on the team. Linebackers have been nonexistant for years. Special teams have been worthless for years. Still no tackling fundamentals shown from this team. Finally though, defense is throwing backs backward instead of letting them fall forward. Massive improvement in run blocking from oline. Irish still can't tackle. This is pure coaching stupidity when team cannot tackle.

 

[Nuffsed]

Fire Charlie. Fire the AD.

 

[goldenlid]

Sully's hurt I hope it's nothing bad.

 

[goldenlid]

Neal and Smith may start next week if they can keep this play up.

 

[SillyIrish]

Fire Charlie. Fire the AD.

You're Fired.

 

[KamaraPolice]

it was a good effort, but the wheels are falling off. Let's keep this close and build on it so we can get a win soon (next week).

 

[Nuffsed]

Two and a half years into his career, and his athletes still cannot play basic football. Humiliated on national TV, and his athletes still make no attempt to tackle correctly. At some point, you learn. This guy is not learning.
