It could be worse. We could be Florida this morning.

As bad as the O played, if feels good to complain with a win instead of a loss. Hopefully we right the ship on O. At least Napier is not our HC!!!!!! Maybe Lagway is a portal target come January.

I genuinely don’t get why some of y’all even watch this sport. We’re 2-0 for the first time since 2019. FIRST TIME IN SIX YEARS. And y’all cant even enjoy that fact. Yeah, maybe we won’t end up winning the natty. Or maybe shit gets figured out and they do. All I know is if being 2-0 for the first time in six years can’t bring you some type of enjoyment, I genuinely don’t get why you watch. Especially in this new age of college football with as much parity as there is.

I agree that 2-0 is great. Look around the country, plenty of teams struggling against non P4 opponents. Just get the win, learn from it, get better next week. The schedule of teams we were concerned with doesn’t look as daunting right now. We’ll be fine.

We’re 2-0, sitting at #3 in the country. If we clean things up on offense, we’ll be fine. Defense looks elite through 2 games imo. Offensively, it seems like the philosophy is to run a slow tempo, eat clock to win the TOP battle, shorten games, and let the defense get quick stops, rinse and repeat. Doesn’t seem like scoring a ton of points is on the menu for the offense at this point. Not fun to watch, but it’s got the job done so far.

ND LOST to a shitty NIU team last season and went to the championship game. The sport is much different than ten years ago where there are 1-3 dominant teams that run the table and go the distance.

They also had a worse offensive performance in that game than we did last night

We have 5 new starters on the OLine. What did people think it would look like? Seems like we handled Clemson pretty well. We ran the same plays over and over last night. We weren’t going to show Florida much. Surely we have some new wrinkles next week. Pray that Moore is back at Center.

We don't find a way to impose our will with the OL, WE WILL BE FLORIDA'S VICTIM NEXT WEEK. Florida can impose its will in the run game. Their coaches DEMAND it. Our coaches apparently ask if our players might consider being more aggressive and mean. We are softer than Charmin on the OL. That will win you exactly NOTHING of significance.

So you would rather be Florida with Coach Chia Pet than LSU with BK?

Yea, I thought the O-line played pretty well against Clemson. Much better than expected. Yea, keeping Moore healthy and DJ Chester off the field is going to be critical.

Florida just lost to USF. Please stfu and go have your meltdown somewhere private. You had two comments last week, we sleep walk against an inferior opponent and suddenly we’re terrible and you can stop typing

This looks right just given how the injuries looked. Treydez injury looked flat out bad. Credit to Moore for seeing what type of weight he could put on his ankle but that didn’t look good either. And depth was my biggest concern coming into the season

Our defense will be awesome, we’ve seen teams win natty’s barely scoring 20 pts a game. As long as we keep the other scoring less than us we win. I don’t care if it’s pretty as long as it’s a win. Who says we gotta score 40 pts a game !!!

Lol. They amassed 133 yards against an unranked team at home in the loss yesterday.
