Dawson’s Game Plan w/o Mali

[TheOriginalCane]

Pound the ball until they are forced to put 8 in the box, then air it out.

I mean he has historically built his plays around the slot usage so either we trust upshaw et al to be good enough there or I think we will see at least a few different looks.

Maybe more run variation compared to UNC game to offload a bit

I’ve watched them play multiple times.

They’re frauds.

As long as we don’t miss tackles or turn the ball over, we’re gonna roll over them even without Malachi.

100% Our offense will still score 30. Just need to defense to show up which I believe it will.

Dawsons big moment … time to really shine .. lets ***ing go

Couldn't disagree more with those saying go heavy personnel groupings and play limited smash mouth. You're playing into Notre Dame's hands. For what? If we're expected to lose the game anyway, why run anything but our offense? In fact, be even more aggressive with it. Notre Dame's DC is playing zone something like 65% of the time. Carve those m'f'ers up with the most accurate QB they will face.

Throw uptempo in there so that the domers can't regroup as easily either.

We're going triple option to catch them off guard, don't tell anyone

Please be right. If we beat them without MT, it will be legendary swag!!!

I would view this as the Hetherman referendum. Even with the injuries on defense, there
is no excuse for the defense to be this bad. Cristobal just needs the defense to keep ND under 30. If it can’t even do that when the offense needs merely the tiniest bit of help, take away Hethermans play calling duties and give it someone else as he’s going to get us bounced out of the playoff picture before the end of the season anyways.
