All excellent suggestions this far. Let me tell you what I want, what I really really want:
In the words of the immortal Luther Snavely (God rest his soul), the first thing is three things. 1-I want all 3 of the lads carrying the football to hit the century mark. 2-Another stingy defense. 3-At least a whole quarter of Malik Zaire. That ought to do it.

Zaire plays in the 3rd and 4th quarters because we are ahead and gets to throw at least 5 times.

In reply to Bquigz5. He's played many more games per season, so he should have many more wins. Winning percentage is a better point of comparison.

Stay healthy – that’s first and foremost.

Second, now that we are in the new “committee era” – Style points are going to matter again. “Half a hundred” should do it.

I have bad news. Apparently we lost the Michigan game except for a few bad calls against the Wolverines. And Frank Clark played a game that only JJ Watt could match.We had no answer for him and he had 20 almost sacks. At least that is the view at maize and blue nation.
Yes, it is hard to let go of last week.

I can’t quite wrap my head around why fans aren’t buying into Kelly by now. Granted he lost 4 games in 3 f his 4 years, he also led us to a 12-1 season, has consistently recruited top 10 classes, and by the way, he is the winningest coach through 4 season in ND history (more than Rockne, Leahy, Ara Parseghian, Devine, etc.) Not saying he’s better than these folks, but he has more wins, that has to count for something. Disgruntled alumni, I get it. Tradition, yadayadayada. But I think they’re positive changes he’s bringing, and the damn players love it so put on your ’70s Irish cap and shut up already. We’re seeing SUPER young football team play really fricken good football here, especially impressive defensively. This shows me BK is building depth across the board, really proving to me that this “Next man in” slogan that I originally thought was bull for “we stink becasue we’re hurt, bad luck” BS is actually coming to fruition. I’m on board. Go Irish, and Go BK.

What one thing do I want to see against Purdue? Another shutout! I know that is asking a lot, but you should set your goals high.

I’d like to see EG “throw a man open” in addition to “throwing to the open man.”

Dominate an inferior opponent from start to finish. Empty the bench by the 3rd quarter because the game is over.
