Notre Dame 2022

[PHJIrish]

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

[Irishman]

Pyne decides who he is throwing to prior to the snap, and refuses to look at anyone else. he has made some bad decisions today. The run game has been unstoppable, why they spend so little time running as the game goes on is mind boggling. And now Syracue has all the momentum as the 4th quarter starts. 

[PHJIrish]

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!

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

Now I can die a happy man. I’ve lived to see the day when @temptationis rooting for Notre Dame … regardless of his true motivation.

Haha, yep.  The OSU/Michigan loser should get in with 1 loss over a 1 loss Clemson unless “the game” is a blowout.

Still gotta take care of business first though.

I'm not sure how Notre Dame will do against a ranked opponent at home. They look really good against ranked opponents on the road. Then they look really bad against unranked opponents at home. I'm not sure which direction to go in the Clemson game. It really depends on which Uiagalelei shows up. As bad as Notre Dame is at home, I don't think Clemson has a chance unless their quarterback puts together his best performance of the season.

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

So far, so good, tonight.  Irish 14, Clemson 0.  4 minutes left, 3rd period.

[Irishman]

The Irish defense has been great; special teams have been great. Offense has been ok. They get some good drives going, but then get away from what is moving the ball so well, and the drives stall. Defense and special teams setting up scores is HUGE.

Fourth ranked team on Notre Dame's schedule about to go down tonight at the hands of the Irish. But Freeman is "in way over his head." Footballking? Hello?

I'd give you my address. It backfires on me every time. 

[PHJIrish]

The way things have been going, I'm surprised that Pick Six wasn't called back.

[PHJIrish]

Outstanding defensive effort by the Irish tonight!  Got to keep it up, it ain't over ye!

So you stand by your comment? He's in over his head?

He looked entirely in over his head when I made the comment almost 8 weeks ago. ND has rebounded nicely. When he consistently wins 10 games a year like Kelly he can join the conversation.

OK, now.

Freeman has done something in his 10th game that Kelly failed to do his entire tenure: beat a good team … that they weren’t supposed to beat.

@temptation You’re welcome!
