PHJIrish

I'm hoping Terry McLaurin has a career day tomorrow. He's already played a lot of games at LOS, maybe more than some Colts rookies.

Amen to that! My suggestion is that the Irish cancel the rest of their home games and play their upcoming schedule on the road.

The Irish got their mojo back and win 41-24. Estime ran for 123 yards. OL play was outstanding today.

The Irish have gone soft and the lead is down to 24-17 in short order. Pyne has become a mannequin out there. He just holds the ball. All true. They run the ball effectively and now Pyne refuses to throw to anyone but the primary read. It's got to change or this game will be a disaster!

Irish field goal makes it 24-7 midway 3rd quarter. Syracuse starting QB is out too.

Notre Dame is up 21-7 at the half.

Notre Dame looks more like Notre Dame so far in this game. Irish up 14-7 over the "Cuse.

And I thank you for carrying on this discussion.

If you had your wish, LN probably wouldn't have "qualified" for the playoffs and LC either. I believe both, with losing records, are worthy of being in the playoffs. There's nothing wrong with the current all-in system that warrants 11 pages of discussion, imho.

I forgot to mention that Cathedral running back Carson Johnson had a career night tonight. He carried the ball 33 times for 226 yards and two TD's. Most of his yards were tough yards too!

Cathedral 44, Lawrence North 35 final.

Lots of fans missed a tremendous offensive football game! It was the track meet that most thought it would be but much closer than expected, mostly because Lawrence North played their hearts out! The old saying is that speed kills, and the LN speed almost ended the season for the Irish. LN jumped out to a 21-10 lead in the 2nd quarter, but the Irish battled back a took a 24-21 lead at halftime. Cathedral led the entire 4th quarter but were only up 37-35 with less than a minute left, and facing 4th down and 10. After LN used their last time out, the Irish iced the game with a Danny O'Neil to Jaron Tibbs TD and a 44-35 win. This was truly survive and advance for the Irish! Next up is the sectional 6 championship game, as Cathedral will be at Lawrence Central for that one. It could be another track meet!

Another nice night for football! I will be good for this old fan to be up by the press box at Arlington! It's one of the best views in Central Indiana. I hope to see a lot of Irish fans, cheering the Irish on in the first game of the sectionals. GO IRISH!!!!!!

Jaron's a team player, no matter what team he plays for. If numbers are the only criteria for Mr. Football, the odds aren't good for him. Of course he did have a monster game in last year's 5A state championship game, 10 catches, 210 yards and a couple of TD's. I'm glad the Irish have Ayers and Wooten to help them win game. For Irish players, the most important numbers are the ones on the scoreboard at the end of a game, in all sports.

The Yankees, Green Bay and the Buccaneers, led by Tom Brady, all lose on the same day.

Ryan was just awful Sunday. It was just a "matt"er of time until the move was made. Lots of blame to go around, but Matt just threw the ball to the other team way too much.

I'm an old Cathedral fan boy, but I've seen very few football players in my many years as good at his position than Jaron Tibbs. He's been fun to watch. He's not bad on the basketball court either.

Terry McLaurin is a pretty good NFL receiver!😉

I believe that the undefeated 1996 Cathedral team was capable of beating anyone in the state that year.

Never ending, it's been going on for years!

Old quarterbacks never die, they just throw to the other guys!😉

That's your opinion.

Irish win 44-21, but it wasn't a good effort today. Need to get the offense going, maybe trying to run the ball outside the tackles once in a while. Pyne still looks confused.

The Notre Dame offense is just stagnant! No misdirection plays, or very few, and Pyne is having a problem throwing over the rushing linemen.. Just not Notre Dame football!

It sure will be good to get back in the stands for the Lawrence North/Cathedral game at Arlington. North Central will be at Lawrence Central in the other game Friday night.
