If they can't slow them down on first down this is going to be ugly.

Yikes.
Matt, even you can't deny what we all witnessed at the end of that drive. Tony Rice was a better passer.

Can we start a petition to take the Rockne off the jersey at half? He doesn't deserve this. Kind of like the 77 green jersey game, but with more meh.

Going to be a nail biter at this rate. Unreal. Very disappointed in the offense and Wimbush. Those plays are there. He just cannot hit open wide receivers. In for a tough fight.

So do you blame Rees for the previous 2 years Wimbush was on the roster? Who was responsible for teaching Wimbush the fundamentals then? This is way more then Rees and his coaching acumen.

Bottom line Is if we can't ever get negative plays this is gonna be a 6 off possession game. At which point anything can happen. Bend but don't break option def is as annoying as anything on offense.

It seems pretty obvious that Navy could put 11 in the box and ND could run at will. Running is just too easy. No challenge. Pass and give Navy a sporting chance!

This team has regressed since usc. This is painful to watch right now. We get a field goal. They eat up the time of possession. Sound familiar. Frustrating.

Horrible 1st qtr! They play them every year and still can't figure out how to slow down smaller slower players. This game is not good for my blood pressure!

I agree but he sure doesn't seem to be improving matters much.

We should run the ball every play if we are going to play BW.

I think they want to throw it some to grow his confidence but at some point you have to cut bait. They are just hurting his confidence more and more and more.

If I'm correct, it was 3 and 6 on that previous series and MTA had a tackle for atleast 5 yards, and then it was 4 and 6...how does that happen?
