That sucked. Hopefully the defense takes it personally. I have been impressed with WF but our defense is giving up a ton of yards and now more points than I can recall in a long time.

P.S. nice they missed the 2 point try. We can hold them to under our average.

O-line needs to make a statement on these short yardage plays! They got blown up.
After watch8ng Nelson play with out his knee braces in the second half vs North Carolina the defenders will always have the advantage in leverage and technique.

JThose victory meals are making the o line fat and lazy
Wake has been crashing hard against the run all day. If we could connect downfield more often, they'd have to play the pass more.

Put Adams in. Score stop score. Take him out.

I agree but doubt they play him.

Do you think Adams would have taken to the house the runs that Williams and Jones were caught from behind?

I hate when we play that soft coverages (prevent defense). I always told the defense coordinator don't use it until 4 minutes or less. They never listen and than wanna scream on secondary players and coaches. Smh

Why are we passing? Is WF selling out to stop the run or are we focused on getting our passing gme going?

Good news and bad news.

Bad news, Clemson has stretched their lead to 31-21 on NC State. More bad news, Penn State is back ahead of Sparty 24-21.

Good news, Ohio State is getting utterly bashed by Iowa right now. 38-17, and Iowa is set up 1st and goal at the 3 when the 4th quarter starts.

what the hell are they doing? just let them throw and catch.

I guess WF's goal right now is to to move ND off the No. 3 ranking.

Wow. I hope the defense gets this **** out of their system this week. I guess ND was about due for a somewhat ugly game

This is a shameful display by the defense. They've been utterly embarrassing the last two drives. Better shapen up ricky tick.

Thought Elko would shut this team down. They are making our D look pedestrian. Looking like a Big 12 game.
