I want to see alot more of the same.  O-Line setting the tone and the D staying stingy.  

Other than that I want to see how the young bucks perform in their first true road game.  I have been pleasantly surprised by the freshmen and see big things in the future for them.

What say you?

In all honesty, I want to see struggles on both sides of the ball to see how these guys handle adversity. I’d rather have to work through some issues today than I would against OSU…

this is exactly the type of game I wanted...

You wanted a boring head scratching game that didn’t really tell us anything about where this team is offensively or defensively?  Call me crazy but this is not the game I wanted.  Adversity sure…but lots more questions then answers now

I think this tells us a lot, so not sure what you mean?

Oline play, can’t they truly block?  Hartman was put on his back 4 different times that I remember. The offense completely sputtered until late in the third when the defense had two picks to set up the offense. 
No go to #1 receiver still. 
Zero pass rush.

Harper was picked on all game. He’s supposed to be our Nickel corner. 
liafau still takes bad angles. 
slow developing plays with Estime will not work. 
If this was Ohio State I’m not sure ND scores a td honestly. 
Sire there was some good. But as a coach I would have a ton to examine tomorrow

As I said, says a lot. More bad than good, so a lot to work on and improve!

 

FFS they were fueled with hot dogs...

Saw that Sam Hartman is around #5 on a few Heisman Watch lists after this week.

The games vs Ohio St and especially Southern Cal given WIlliams being on the other team will give him a chance to move up (I hope).
