Second Half ND Game Thread

Rourke why did you have to throw that interception early.  As soon as this happened the entire team collapsed the rest of the way.

Athletes. Strength. Size. It matters. A chip on your shoulder because you were under recruited will only get you so far.

I love Cig. Great season. But this was a poor effort by everyone, including coaches.

It is like Woodson took over the team for this game.

Hopefully Cig recognizes the speed, size, and skill gap because he needs to get some of that from the portal.

I do recall salty JMU fans saying “just wait” until we get into big games and have head scratching play calls… that seems accurate. But the talent gap right now can't be understated. It may be similar next year. Gotta get bigger faster stronger. Need more 4 stars.

ND and O$U are on a completely different level talent-wise. 

Not throwing in the towel (well, OK -- I am), but that we won 11 games with our holdovers and a bunch of transfers is pretty impressive.

Agreed. The stupid play calling is a real concern

I hope our big donors still see the potential and we garner more NIL to get 4 star athletes.  I hope the coaching staff recognizes we need better athletes and better ranked recruits.

Maybe it’s partly a talent gap issue but there is no doubt that the offense played wide open, with varied/creative play calling,  while going completely conservative (and playing not to lose) when playing better teams.

Notre Dame holds all the time!

Defense doing its job, messed some tackles, but having a nonexistent offense sucks

If we can see it from our couches I have little doubt he will recognize the issue.

Too little too late

[rcbowla 7,125]

Play TJ here. I know what I said earlier lol

[IUFAN1976 3,166]

If we can score a TD here, then could be a slim chance.  I actually think our D has played decent despite some missed tackles 

[RoadRage 1,852]

Cig just doesn't trust Tayven....our OL can't protect Rourke, we need a mobile QB to compensate!

[IUHoosier5 1,608]

You got to take a shot. 

[Brass Cannon 24,813]

We don’t have time to use our Rbs what the ****. 

[Banksyrules 4,807]

These days I hope Coach Cig has people who are honest with him to move forward as a program.  Can’t coach and play scared.  

[Hoosierfan1901 6,301]

Why are we running
