    ND’s sledgehammered its way to a great start.

    The first quarter was what — 5 minutes long?

    ND’s defensive line needs to get more pressure on Howard. Holden is cautious about getting ripped apart by OSU’s speed by blitzing.

    Notre Dame offense was very impressive on their opening drive, not so much since in the first half. Very few penalties for both teams. Being up 14 points at the half is comforting.:) Will Howard is having a suburb game thus far and making some critical yards with his running ability.

    Kind of interesting that the halftime show doesn't take place in the stadium, I can see what's going on in the stadium on the 4K channel and it's the school bands, go to ESPN and it's the dude on the roof of the stadium.

    4 possessions 4 touchdowns. ND is in a hole that is probably too deep to climb out of.

    Yep, that's pretty much the ball game.

    Score here and we're in danger of getting beat like TCU vs Georgia.

    Maybe the SEC refs can do a camp with the B10 refs and teach them what holding is.

    The SEC refs suck too. The did call a holding on ND though.

    Nice drive for a score. Hill is still too high, but nice to see the team fight.

    Good drive comes up empty. Buckeyes just have to run some clock now.

    Surprised they tried a FG attempt at this point in the game.
