Comments on: Bulls to Test Irish in Opener https://dev.ndnation.com/bulls-to-test-irish-in-opener/ The Independent Voice of Notre Dame Athletics Fri, 11 May 2018 16:51:20 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Brian https://dev.ndnation.com/bulls-to-test-irish-in-opener/#comment-4322 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 00:52:53 +0000 https://dev.ndnation.com/?p=2533#comment-4322 I agree Dave88. Sadly, I now measure my lifetime in terms of how many more ND football seasons I will have to endure before I greet (hopefully) St. Peter at the Pearly Gate!

This ND team is not BCS timbre and we could be staring at a winless September.

Very disappointed. I have no confidence in Crist. I would love to see Rees start the second half if it ever happens.

I don’t expect a fancy win but I do expect ND to win the game and build on the progress leading up to Michigan.

If ND manages to lose then it’s just same ol’, same ol’ again. I do, however, feel more optimistic about the season then I have in a very long time.

Beating USC last year was a BIG step, but not that one ‘statement’ game that I’m referring to. Beating USF is a good start, but USF, no disrespect intended, is NOT MSU or UM. These traditional opponents are BIG time and we need to BEAT them – thoroughly and decisively – on THEIR turf and on ours.
Football is a game of physical domination and it is won in the trenches – I think we’ve come back to that. Just knock the guy down in front of you wearing the different colored uniform and the rest will take care of itself.

Coach Kelly’s career pattern shows a huge improvement between the 1st year and the 2nd year in a program – he has gotten to know the team and they have gotten to know him.

I think he too is looking for that signature game, that one play, where it all comes together, and I fervently believe that we (they) are getting REAL close to that.

All of you who will be at the game – I almost envy you, but not quite. I’ll have a 6-pack and some goodies here and will be cheering along with you.

Good luck with the traffic.

Please stop the whining.

If not,the smaller,quicker opposing linemen will make them look like “mud-mollies”(Tennessee quote)
