Guess we can't be happy with a first down running. Let's run a play that hasn't worked all year.

If Notre Dame ran into a 9-man box, you would be complaining they aren't throwing too. haha It's that point in the year where no one likes the head coach.
If we want to throw we better put in Book before Wimbush gets all our wrs killed.

They sure seem to love that awful wr screen. I don't think that play has gained more than about 6 yards all year.

I never said I didn't like the HC. He's done well turning things around but a QB who is struggling throwing in dry conditions should be handing the ball off in these conditions. It's awful weather so play to your strengths...

I like the called QB runs. Maybe this will calm him down.

#NotreDame RB Tony Jones Jr. breaks off a 17-yard run. As Josh Adams gets looked at by the medical staff.

He can't hit any pass no matter how wide open they are!

Nice to score but 3s won't do it.

Hate saying this, he is horrible at throwing. Make him a RB for next season.

Chuck Knoblauch throwing to first right now. It's all in his head.

That proves my point...so run the ball bc the passing game is pathetic. What makes you think he will complete a pass in a monsoon when he can't in dry conditions

It has to be in his head. I see average QB make those throws every Saturday. Geez...

It's bad enough that they are having Wimbush throw all these passes. But they are having him do it into a 20 MPH wind. If they want him to throw have him do it in the second quarter when the wind is to your back.

Wimbush can't hit a barn. He will be under 50 percent by the end of the year. Not the answer.

Is it too early for Book?

Who coaches BW?

Does anyone know if Brian Kelly has an interview with the Eagles coming up soon?

QB competition should be wide open next year. He is a mess right now. Absolutely zero self confidence and you cannot play and be successful without confidence. I hope he finds it soon.

The QB should be able to complete a 5 foot pass regardless of the wind.
