The "Show Me" Season: Notre Dame Open Thread

Bruinsnation_tiny by Nestor on in Football Comment 501 comments

We have talked enough this week. It's time for the Sleeping Beauty to deliver a deliver a blowout win in the most anticipated home game of his "show-me" season.

If the Bruins do not come out rolling and dominating the Irish, it will be a huge letdown to thousands of those who will come out in force at the Rose Bowl:

Enjoy the game today.

Here is our game day roundup and if you are headed out to the Rose Bowl again make sure you treat the the Irish faithful w/ the respect and hospitality they showed us last year in South Bend.

Kickoff is at 5:00 PST (on ABC). If you are logging on without any TV coverage, here is the link to click to track the game.

Fire away.

GO BRUINS.

Michigan St. just lost to Northwestern
And Illinois took down Wisconsin. Wisconsin just proved me correct as the most overrated team in the country. The #5 team in the country was the underdog against an unranked team. That says something.

LET'S GO BRUINS!!!
This will be my first game back as a California resident! My fiancee and I are having a little welcome home party, with the game front and center! It's nice to be back, people! I am looking forward to a good, fun game. KD is irrelevant. The Blue and Gold will live on forever!

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!!!

Heading out now......
I'm off to the Parsons lot to hop a bus to the Rose Bowl. See you all there!

Right, let's be respectful to ND. They hate SC almost as much as we do! Besides, "Rudy" has always been my favorite film. I watch the DVD several times a year.

Wear the blue! Be proud! Go Bruins!!!

I may work with the Waves, but I'm still a Bruin!

Another UCLA-ND Connection
Besides our common hate of trOJans, your post reminds us of another connection to Notre Dame.  Sean Astin, the star of Rudy, was a grad of UCLA.  Go Bruins!

Another bar night
following the Bruins (Thanks ABC). Couldn't quite make the trip to DC this weekend, but will be out in support once the Red River Shootout is done (Go Horns!).

One of my ND friends at the law school has imposed a "winner buys the first drink" post-game tonight. Hopefully, she is correct in it being merely a scam to get a drink out of me.

And Tennessee is now leading #12 Georgia 28-0.

At least ten ranked teams will lose this week.

Well, I see nothing has changed
I was totally incommunicado on the cruise ship, with the exception of about 8 million shots of various goals in various soccer leagues in various countries.  (Sorry, soccer fans.  It's BORING BORING BORING.  I would much rather watch curling or the always exciting poker championships where you know everyones' hands.)

I did a little reading, and we were behind 14-12 against OSU in the fourth quarter.  And we won because some guy on the other team had bet the mortgage on UCLA plus the points. And CTS still has a job?  This is getting really boring.

I don't think this is the "Show Me" season.  This is CTS telling everyone that he has no clue, he will take the money and run, and there is nothing that anyone can do about it.  In other words, and pardon my coarseness, but this is CTS saying its a "Blow Me" season.

He is going to make it through another season before going 4-8 next year.  And the Kool Aid drinkers will giggle, and drop little notes here saying "Blow Me!"

I am very glad I missed the OSU game.

Ya gotta remember
It's important for each and every offensive player to go in motion and then reset three or four times, and them point at everyone on the defense.  And that takes time.

Looking at the box score
I see we had first and goal on the 7.  Then we put together a drive that had a minus 4 yards.

Yep, it's vintage CTS.  He's going to play this one not to lose, and it won't work.  Bruin brothers and sisters, I feel the shock wave coming.

He's calling us out for our penalties and for not being able to do what everyone has done to ND -- move the ball and score.

did you see KD holding up his arms after the FG was good.  it was as if he won the freaking pac-10 championship game. what a joke
Go Bruins!

He was signaling touchdown
maybe he doesn't understand the difference between a TD and a FG.

That would explain a lot of things.

that makes perfect sense
no wonder he can sleep so well -- he thinks to himself "all these suckers going for the endzone when they can just kick the ball into the crossbars and get 7 points. my little secret!"

i was REALLY tempted to go find a bookie and place some action on this game in vegas.  on ND of course.

We are averaging 2.7 a carry
against a team that may have he worst rushing D in the country.

Our O line is really the problem.

They left BO unprotected. Can't open up holes.

Of course, it might help if we ran wide or did something different.

I know, the thinker will say we run straight into them to tire them out.

There isn't enough lipstick in the world to make this pig pretty.

Hey Hey..
we'll have none of that here...2.7 yards per carry.  We are making progress.  There are things that can be improved on, but overall, I think we're moving forward.  How was that for a KD 101 excuse?

by bruin78 on Oct 6, 2007 6:56 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Some stats
ND is living up to its billing - they were no. 118 in points per game and no. 118 in yards per game going into the game.  Another interesting stat - their horrible defense gives up 33.2 per game (no. 98) in the country.  Which explains how we were able to roll up 6 big points.  (By the way - ND's defense was allowing 355.8 yards per game - just awful, right?  UCLA's defense has given up 361.4 per game.

Now for this game

First downs  ND 7, us 10
3rd down efficiency (?)  ND 1-8, us 4-10 (whoopee)
total yds  ND 62, us 147.
rush yds - them 3, us 59
pass yds - them 59, us 88
Penalties - them 3 for 31, us 6 for 50.

I guess this silences all of CTS's critics.  This is the kind of game we've all been waiting for.  Perfect in every facet.

But at least I have the sound turned down.  Actually, it's turned down on the FLA - LSU game.)

Stanford 6 down with about 5 min left
Just kicked a fg -- so will have to get the ball back.

We had to call time out
they only had 10 players on the field.

It's an honor to get beat by them so KD called a time out to let them get the 11th on the field.

We should not have to rely on the firm
We should be doing what everyone else has to ND -- run the ball up their ass.

But, we don't have an O line.

And, that's on KD not the firm.

And WTF -- he's letting the firm throw more than he ever let BO throw.

TD Irish.

Why are we not running the ball?
