10 Wins On the Line 

Notre Dame travels to Stanford this weekend as the Irish prepare for another clash. Recently, the Irish have not performed well in Pali Alto, and it would be a nice cap to an impressive turnaround season if they can leave with a victory.

What is this team like with kizer? We sure we'll be able to throw! Maybe one loss at this point? Interesting to ponder! Now let's have a 2nd half like Standford had on ND last year!

Awful half of football.
Awful, sloppy, and oddly boring.

I've watched games all day. dumbass decisions happen all the time. you guys think this is easy? it's not.

I know. I am willing to wait for this one game. If it is done and dumb, I am done.

Adams should sit. He's not playing 100% and the other RBs would be much better.

I've never seen a football player progress less over the course of a season than Brandon Wimbush. Ton Rees is a horrible coach and Wimbush is a terrible qb. A good qb and ND is undefeated and ranked #1. I'm over the whole "he's young and developing" bs line that is being fed to us every week. There are countless examples of first time starters succeeding in the passing game. Wimbush just sucks. That's it.

No..Wimbush should have kept that

He's an LSU level passer at this point and even worse at the zone read.

Our play calling has been ****e for weeks ...no wrinkles. Just unimaginative garbage

There is almost little point in watching the referees have the thumb so heavy on the scale for Stanford. Very little chance we can beat these referees.

Ok, Oline is getting no push again, Adams is still hurt, BW is a good runner, WR and TE love screen passes, special teams suck, exempt for Yoon, Defense started ok, but can't do it all night with no help. What did I miss?

ND is the better team, can they prove it?

I don't understand why the offense is so freakin plain vanilla nowadays especially when it has been inept. What happened to the creativity from the USC game?

Also, I watched warmups today and Wimbush was throwing ducks. Something is really off with him. Book, on the other hand, was throwing tight spiral dimes. Huge difference.

Receivers other than Stepherson not making plays.

But Stanford's coaching is SO much better that it negates any talent advantage.

Everybody (including myself) has been saying "run the ball down their throats"! Well, maybe there is a reason... they can't. We certainly can't throw the ball. The last month we look like a pretty ****ty team, first 8 games we honestly looked top 4. No idea what happened?

It's a combo of BK and scheduling. Nov will continue to suck until a change is made. Hopefully in to the Acc

Halftime shows also get in the way of quality commercial watching.

Yes it is! It's a read and the read said keep it!


Your missing my point with a slow and hurt RB he should keep it every play. He should just be running the wildcat.

Costello is a below average qb and much better than Wimbush. That's why this is going to be a loss.

I agree. What is going on with this program? I'm not sure we'll ever find out but I'd love to know.
