Comments on: Tigers Stand Between Notre Dame and Elusive 10th win https://dev.ndnation.com/tigers-stand-between-notre-dame-and-elusive-10th-win/ The Independent Voice of Notre Dame Athletics Tue, 01 May 2018 13:08:44 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Jake https://dev.ndnation.com/tigers-stand-between-notre-dame-and-elusive-10th-win/#comment-22606 Tue, 02 Jan 2018 03:59:13 +0000 https://dev.ndnation.com/?p=6360#comment-22606 In reply to Lonnie.

Lonnie,

You shouldn’t drink.. It makes you look stupid. I stand by my comments.

We looked terrible today.. Lucky LSU couldn’t finish any of their drives..

Incredible play by Boykin! Needed a win like that to calm the fan base and create momentum in the offseason. I don’t think Kelly is the answer but as long as he recruits well and they win 10 every few years Swarbrick won’t make a change. For better or worse we are stuck with him so I’ll hope the culture changes are real, Swarbrick helps with scheduling (highly unlikely) and they find a QB for next season.

The defense showed a lot of heart. Kudos to Elko for turning things around on that side of the ball this year. They should only be better in year 2. Wimbush looked no better than he had all season, so Kelly made the logical move to give Book a chance. He looked good out there, except for the horrible decision on the interception.
It looks like we have a major quarterback competition/controversy on our hands now. I could see any of the four (including Davis and Jurkovec) leading the team next year. Let’s hope Kelly handles that decision better than he has in the past. It will be interesting.
Go Irish.

He gives ND the versatility on the pass game that opens up the running game. Glad to see Kelly finally woke up and made the right move before the game got away from him.

Sure didn’t make that look easy but a great win against a great opponent! Great way to start 2018.
So about this QB situation…clearly more drama awaits.

Flea flickers. Wide receive passes. The worst play calling I’ve ever seen. This is atrocious.

That said, for all I care maybe BK will be Tiger Bait. Almost game time–I have game on delay– ‘ cause I wanted to read Mr. Coffey’s pregame. Happy New Year– we will see ?

Thanks also for all you do for the ND fan base with this site, and have done for years. I am more determinedly optimistic and positive minded than most of your commentariat and so have never tried to join your various discussion sites, but having been around since Leahy (OK I was a very teeny fan) I can appreciate the enormous effort you have put into this effort, so… merci beaucoup ( live in France).
As for the outcome… we’ll see which teams show up, and whether LSU’s surge at the end of the season had to do some with the turmoil their last three opponents were undergoing… and like you say, is Josh really back to full speed (Dexter and Tony would be nice as well!)
