I disagree on what you do if you win the Toss. Absent a turnover - ND should move down the field and score easily. Watch the tape of Navy v. Memphis - I expect us to get multiple 50+ runs. I expect a learning curve for our young Defense - so I expect our defense to be more effective in the 2nd H than in the first H. So ... you want to minimize Navy's first half possessions. When ND kicks off in the 2nd H, our D should be more effective. And you are right - you don't want to get behind this Navy Team, and the way you best assure that - take the ball first and if we stumble - you go on 4th Down, because you'll see we can push these guys around. This Navy D may be small, but they're slow .....
I could see SC giving us a game, but the other three probably blowouts. We’ve won 10 of our last 11 games (91%) with 8 blowouts, really hitting stride Freeman is now 26-8 ( 76%), same as Holtz who was 100–30 (76%)
Are these guys really as good as GT?
ReplyDeleteI don’t think so. Another blowout
You were right, not much of a game.
DeleteAs expected
That was a beat down, 51-14?
DeleteNavy has a well coached team, but. Not really a D1 school in terms of athletes. Shouldn’t be much of a struggle for the Irish

Gonna be a special month of November

Golden always has answers every week.
Is Florida state worst team left on our schedule?
