10-3 at the half, Irish have lost 2 starters on the OL and maybe the starting QB. Nits have looked great on both sides of the ball, running it very well and their defense has just dominated our offense.
Well Leonard is back and the Irish drive the field running the ball and a great wheel route. Game tied at 10-10
ND has had better results running between the tackles than laterally. It looks like neither team is confident throwing the ball downfield to their wide receivers.
Riley throws his 2nd pick and the Nits score again. 24-17 Under 8 to play so we have to score on this possession. Riley has thrown 2 picks and so has Allar but he got bailed out by PI calls.
Quick score response by the Irish big pass play for a TD. Game tied at 24. Irish D desperately needs to force a punt out of PSU
What a game. Norte Dame gets cluch field goals at the end of both half’s to win. Hey Terry how would you feel about a Texas - Norte Dame final?
Someone started a topic on a GatorCountry forum that was titled the best thing that ever happened to Norte Dame and it was a photo of Brian Kelly in an LSU shirt.
The choice between a very good college football team in Texas and the '27 Yankee's ...errr Buckeyes is an easy one to make. Hook'em and let's go at it Jan 20th.
Great game, another gutty win by a very gritty group of Irish. They seem to be the embodiment of their coach. Smart, tough, physical, resourceful and relentless. Fun group to watch. Whoever you play in the Natty is gonna have their hands full right up to the very end.....Congrats fellas. On a side note, as many of you may recall my bride of 40 years is a Nittany Lion. When the final four was determined she stated to me that she didn't want to have to play us again......therefore, she's hoping we go down to the Longhorns. 40 years of marriage gone in the blink of an eye. In sickness and health and death do us part falls to the college football playoffs. Oh yes and sorry honey, karma is a b!tch
