After watching our joke of a coach today I wouldn’t want to play for this idiot. We have one of the best kickers in the country and this idiot decides to leave the game in a Freshman QB’s hands. Once again out coached, pitiful!

BK fans what do you think now. This guy is in way over his head. You cant blame this one on Charlie.

In reply to Fitz. Wow, it's deja vu all over again! Poor play calling late in the game truly can kill you. What was Kelly thinking with that last play call?? You're well within the FG range of Ruffer, who is arguably the most consistent kicker in college football, and yet you order up a deep PASS from a freshman QB, which predictably gets picked off?? I need a whole jar of Pepto Bismol to digest this game. I'm afraid Weis has been cruelly reincarnated as Kelly. Let the recriminations begin. . .

I’m pretty disappointed in the rush offense. All I heard the whole preseason is what great depth we have at running back, and a “stable” of able backs who would all play. Well, so far it’s been the Armando Allen show with special guest Cierre Wood. I’m certainly not knocking the effort of those 2 backs, but would it not make more sense to mix in more “fresh legs” and keep the defenses off-balance with different styles? Where’s Robert Hughes? Where’s Jonas Gray? Where’s the stable?

Damn sure glad we have a decent kicker.

This game has me concerned. Tulsa is no Western Michigan. They have a very explosive offense and after last week’s offensive melt down due to many injuries this week the reeling defense are the ones plagued by injuries. If we’re gonna make it to the crappy.com bowl game this year than this game is a must win. Considering this week’s tragedy I can see this one going one of two ways: either it’ll untie the team and refocus them or it’ll send them sliding even further down the unmotivated slippery slope that started with Navy. I’m glad Ruffer has proven to be the real deal as I have a feeling we’re gonna need him late to pull this one out.

Ranger, you must make your fellow ND fans so proud. Why is it that rednecks have the ability to to highlight their ignorance with the most efficient use of words?

“Send hate mail to the pinhead at the local NBC channel sports Bob Barry Jr who does nothing but talk negative about our IRISH. Call him Turkey Neck, that will get him going. Go Irish.”

Pot calling the kettle black?

In reply to Bear.

Bear said, ” If there is one thing we all should have learned under Weis, that is not a good tactic with an ND team. Learn to pound the ball”

Nice point Bear. I’ll argue finesse is fine as long as there are the players to support it in a big way. Otherwise default to run might be a better option.

In reply to Mike.

Mike said, “need to get over the Weis hangover.”

Scapegoating Weis doesn’t fly. It hardly makes any sense in explaining ND’s *worst loss* in 50 years against Navy last week. The utter lack of motivation and preparation is on Kelly and staff.

I live in Oklahoma City, and the buzz around here and the state of Oklahoma is that Tulsa will blow into South Bend and tear down the Irish and take the paint of their helmets with Hurricane force winds. The loss last weekend has emboldened Tulsa like you can’t imagine. Irish need to pick themselves off the ground from last weeks loss, morn the loss of their fellow student by sending a message, sending those morons back to Tulsa humiliated. 2012 is not far off, and the Sooners have the longest Home winning streak in the nation. We must Play like a CHAMPION. Send hate mail to the pinhead at the local NBC channel sports Bob Barry Jr who does nothing but talk negative about our IRISH. Call him Turkey Neck, that will get him going. Go Irish.
