Comments on: Naval Battle in the Meadowlands https://dev.ndnation.com/naval-battle-in-the-meadowlands/ The Independent Voice of Notre Dame Athletics Sun, 24 Oct 2010 15:16:56 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Dave90 https://dev.ndnation.com/naval-battle-in-the-meadowlands/#comment-2801 Sun, 24 Oct 2010 15:16:56 +0000 https://dev.ndnation.com/?p=1122#comment-2801 I still root for and hope that BK was the right choice, but after watching this game, I am finding it increasingly hard to believe that BK will turn ND around. I am okay sliding a little this year if I see signs that BK is really turning things in the right direction. I certainly got that sense during Lou Holt’s first season when the went 5-6. The win-loss outcome was a big disappointment, but I could see a vast improvement in the performance of the players. Two years later, we were celebrating a national championship. While ND has improved in some areas, I do not get the feeling that the tide is turning here and that ND is on the right track. I never recall seeing Holtz’s team get man handled like this. While I hope for BK, I am finding it harder to believe he is the one to turn it around. It just goes to show you how hard it is to find the right coach. I am not even sure Saban or Meyer could turn this team around.

Brian Kelly has his work cut out for himself. Hope he is successful recruiting both players as well as coaches in the next couple of years. We are far from being a high caliber offence / defense. Praying more on Saturdays than Sundays again. . .

I thought in college it was supposed to be 25 seconds. What is the deal?

TJ Jones has a big game at slot showcasing his quickness and hands. Can we run the ball effectively in the first half? It will be easier if we have a running threat at QB. Run the read-option a few times outside of the red zone. Then, punch them in the face with Hughes. If they stack the box, hit Floyd or Goodman deep.

Kelly may even be shocked at how well his backups perform although in listening to him this week that is clearly his next man up expectation. I still think that the talent level is higher than anyone realizes and expect it to break out this week.

The season may go into 7-5, depending on the reserves who substitute the injured starters.

It will show us IF the team really has what it takes to make this an 8-win regular season. (I don’t think 9 is going to happen, no matter what.) This game is going to be tough. Navy is no push-over. They’ve been in every game this season. Forget about who they’ve played. They KNOW that they can beat Notre Dame. (Thanks, Charlie.)

If Weis was still the head coach, I would pick Navy in a close game. However, the Irish still has the scent of Weis around it. The smell has been there to some degree in every game this year.

I see this game as a toss-up. I hope that we’re all not going crazy late Saturday afternoon. Crazy bad.
