Well, I guess we can count on beating Purdue...yikes OSU could get 80.
October 23rd, 2010 at 1:56 PM ^
Here's the NWU that should've lost to Minny.
October 23rd, 2010 at 1:56 PM ^
28-10 Navy!
October 23rd, 2010 at 1:57 PM ^
Sparty... :-(
October 23rd, 2010 at 1:57 PM ^
Cue Northwestern's implosion.
October 23rd, 2010 at 1:58 PM ^
Crap. NW goes 3-and-out and MSU gets easy TD. NW had better score on this drive, or they could be in trouble.
October 23rd, 2010 at 1:59 PM ^
Holding back Persa, and for them to get overwhelmed on all sides, and get slaughtered.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:02 PM ^
Is there an "Irish, Nnnoooooo!!!"?
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:03 PM ^
Sparty no?
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:04 PM ^
I can't believe this. Northwestern has come out flat. At least Navy just picked off a pass.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:05 PM ^
and Kelly screaming his head off. Good for several lols.
How long will Kelly last at ND? I'll say 3 years.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:08 PM ^
He looked pretty douchy doing that. Horrible interception, but you don't see a lot of college coaches dropping that many F-bombs towards a player during a game.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:10 PM ^
I think he's going to be there for longer. He's a good coach and has a great track record. This is just year one, things will get better for them (unfortunately).
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:14 PM ^
but this is ND we are talking about. They don't give coaches time. I also think his attitude REALLY turns off ND fans. Not sure how long it will be tolerated if ND doesn't have a good record to match.
Also, Kelly was handed some pretty good playmakers so the fans won't be any more patient than normal.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:24 PM ^
His defense Weis left him is really slow and he'll get a chance to fix that. But he did seem to have some players on offense. If he needs an understanding ear to have a beer with who get the issues with transitions, I'd recommend meeting up with guys who hang out on this blog.
Stay off the Notre Dame ones.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:34 PM ^
a reasonably deep defense with plenty of upperclassmen and a star at the most important position (Teo). I'd say the defense has slightly underperformed.
The problem is that Kelly is an offensive guy and their offense has REALLY underperformed with all their talent. *I* realize he should be given time to install the system and improve, but do Notre Dame fans/administration? History says no.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:26 PM ^
Not sure about how long Kelly will be there. It is funny to watch when Kelly goes all Bobby Knight. I also agree that his attitude may not sit well with some ND fans or alums. Navy is totally imposing their will on the ND defense. This thing could get ugly.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:06 PM ^
If teams keep imploding against MSU, does that mean MSU is good? They never do anything very impressive, but they keep winning. I don't know what to make of it.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:06 PM ^
Shirtless guy dressed as a Spartan with a nipple ring. He thinks it's cool...I think he's a tool.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:09 PM ^
I saw that guy and I couldn't help thinking to myself, "who does that?"
Only a Spartan doucher...
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:18 PM ^
Didn't he have TWO nipple rings?
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:10 PM ^
Sounds like Bolden has a concussion.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:10 PM ^
3 injuries in like 2 plays for ND?! They're falling apart too.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:11 PM ^
anyone got a stream for the wifeday game? I'd even settle for audio at this point...
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:15 PM ^
i thought it'd be funny to start a new thread looking for the stream but then i figured i'd get banned.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:14 PM ^
Persavered. OK, finish your beer for that one
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:15 PM ^
But getting waxed by Navy?
<br>
<br>Still, you have to love their "stick it in stick it in stick it in!!" chant.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:15 PM ^
ND getting slaughtered. 35-10 Navy.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:16 PM ^
by Persa on that run. Looks like Northwestern is gaining momentum again.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:19 PM ^
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:20 PM ^
Persa is one tough SOB. I'm impressed.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:20 PM ^
But good decision on that keeper by Persa. Had loss written all over it. And sets up "whew" TD.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:20 PM ^
Another great run by Persa.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:20 PM ^
Persa looking good.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:20 PM ^
BOOM BABY! Damn Persa has some jangles. What a run!
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:21 PM ^
Man this kid is fun to watch, tough guy who knows how to get to the sticks. Go Cats
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:21 PM ^
I had to step out for awhile
But have we talked about how many yards of offense would Persa put up against Michigan?
O/U 500, right?
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:22 PM ^
Sparty NO! for that third and nine draw play the ran with Nichols when Cousins was having his way throwing the ball. Gave all the momentum back to NW.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:26 PM ^
I didn't understand that call at all. Northwestern's secondary was confused with the trips on the near side and thankfully MSU called that dumb draw.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:22 PM ^
We don't play NW at this point? It sucks not playing the Gophers, but I'm not sure I'd trade any of our next 3 games for the Wildcats. I'm not even sure they're that great this year, but I just see that offense giving us fits.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:23 PM ^
Persa's QB instincts + Denard's athletic ability= unstoppable. When the passing play breaks down, I wish Denard would just run it
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:28 PM ^
Hopefully Denard will start to do that later this year. He's basically had actual coaching for 14 months, so he's still growing.
On a more general note, remember when Michigan played lots of upperclassman? That was nice.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:23 PM ^
I'm in shock that Syracuse is fielding a competitive team again. They are up right now against WVU 19-14 in the 3rd.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:27 PM ^
I'm not sure if I should be sad about the Syracuse upgrade or happy about the WV downgrade.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:31 PM ^
If this isn't a one year uptick for the Cuse, and they are on the road to long term improvement, I wonder if Jim Delany would want to scratch the expansion itch again.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:44 PM ^
To find someone else too. They can't be going back to odd teams.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:24 PM ^
Oooo weee what up with that? what with that?
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:25 PM ^
Too much cushion there on 3rd and 7.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:26 PM ^
Northwestern's tackling is something our guys should aspire to. They fly to the ball and wrap up. Just a very well-coached squad. If the Cats could attract better talent, they'd be a powerhouse.
October 23rd, 2010 at 2:27 PM ^
Not sure if anyone is watching this, but Minny has over 300 yards halfway through the 3rd quarter, Kevin Newsome getting some playing time as Bolden went out with a concussion.
