Notre Dame game thoughts

[Wickedgenes]

You may be the first Irish fan that has gotten this much respect on a Miami board without the customary **** you so congrats.

As for the game we are coming out hungry and with an old canes attitude which could be scary. Fans will be an issue as we have been waiting for this type of game since 2002 season.

If we play as I think we can play and you guys still win big ups to you but I don’t think it is happening.

appreciate it man. I was surprised at the number of ND people on this board. I do this all the time to get away from ND fans, and at most ill run into one other fan. I think its pointless to come in here and argue. I just try to throw out facts and discuss the matchup. Hopefully i don't rub anyone the wrong way. Just enjoy college football.

You guys are coming off a great win, I would very much doubt there is any let down from that because in all likely hood if you beat ND, you guys are going to the ACC champ undefeated and fighting for a #2 ranking. But, kids being kids (haha) you think there is any chance emotionally this team comes out a little flat?

I gotta imagine that place will be one of the loudest stadiums all season. Although, i was surprised to see you guys only seat 65,000. Honestly, does it play louder than that?

If both teams are on their game, this could be an epic match up. Wimbush is much more dangerous throwing than his stats let on, but that defense is suspect. what has impressed me with this ND team is their physicality (minus the wake forest game) I have never seen a more physical notre dame team. They are not the most skillful defense, but they beat you with fundamentals. When they hit you, they tackle you, not bounce off like previous years.

I saw the beginning of the USC game and South Bend and the players were so jacked up to play a rivalry game. You can feel the emotion of a big rivalry game and USC had no chance. I assume as fans you guys felt that as well.

The city of Miami, University, and players will be jacked up. The coaches may not own up to it publicly, but the players feel disrespected.

The stadium has a partial roof that acoustically traps and reflects the noise onto the football field. 65k feels more like 85k at Hard Rock. No worry though, as the Miami/ND game is already sold out. Keep in mind that most Miami fans are not your Big 10 wine and cheese crowd. It will be loud.

Other stadiums are loud, of course, but there's something different about miami fans and bigtime home games (when the team is clicking). Miami is a "college town" like no other - the fans are nasty, loud and really are unmatched in these categories. In other stadiums, the students may be like this but in Miami, the students are actually the tamest of the sections. Miami gets its fairweather fan rep fairly but there when this team is clicking and the crowds start coming, the noise is tough to beat.

HRS is as insane said - lots of noise trapped and there is a lack of circulation so it gets HOT. I honestly beleive VT was surprised at how loud it was and it truly did affect them. I think it will do the same to Wimbush and ND b/c the game will be even louder.

Obviously wimbush came back in and played. The rb had exams and was tired and not feeling well from a tough week. Lol

Wimbush has been banged up on and off all year unfortunately, still needs to learn to take a hit like a QB

I'd have expected your OL would have kept him pretty clean. This is not a good thing playing us, as we've tired out and banged up some of the toughest dual threat guys around. It's part of what we do schematically. We take out the opposing QB "from their game plan".

I think historically, Notre Dame always gets overhyped by the AP. This year, I think they are the most legit they have ever been. Honestly, they should be #2 behind Georgia. Alabama has played nobody. Hoping for a great game. Great to see these teams playing a high profile game like this.

This is the hottest ticket and venue this weekend.

Everything but the suites are sold out they say. Going to be deafening. The home field advantage will be alive again.

Obviously wimbush came back in and played. The rb had exams and was tired and not feeling well from a tough week. Lol

Wimbush has been banged up on and off all year unfortunately, still needs to learn to take a hit like a QB

I'd have expected your OL would have kept him pretty clean. This is not a good thing playing us, as we've tired out and banged up some of the toughest dual threat guys around. It's part of what we do schematically. We take out the opposing QB "from their game plan".

Not that I disagree that the defense tries to attack the QB, but we haven't exactly faced a murderer's row of QBs this season, and certainly not the "toughest dual threat guys around."

Just got an e-mail from the school saying it's officially sold out. Going to be INSANE.

Fuhk Notre Dame.

Thoughts over.

When I saw the title of this thread all I thought was **** this team..... Well played sir

Eric Dungey and Josh Jackson are very well thought of, the former in particular for toughness. Tyquin Marshall can't throw but is another running about we've punished.

Dungey is definitely the best we faced, I think.

I have a feeling we’ll be geared up to stop the running game and spy the qb, our secondary has been playing lights out. Qb gonna take a lot of hits. I’m sure UM alum will be around all week and the day of the game talking to our guys. No one picking us, home underdogs, qb dominating us.
I’m sure we’re happy having game day. More recruiting exposure for UM, positive press.

The thing that this encouraging for me is that everyone has had the idea of loading up the box to stop the run, but so far no one has really been able to, other than Georgia. However, i think the speed of your DB's will be something new to face. I think we are a better team then what faced Georgia though. Wimbush is coming along nicely. He really can throw much better then what the stats show, he just isn't getting any help from his receivers. they have the size and speed, but aren't very physical and have a case of the drops this season...

Well thats what happens when you have the best OG in the draft in Quentin Nelson and another potential 1st round pick OT in McGlinchey leading the run game.

But this will definitely be the best DL you guys have played against, and not just our starters. It is our best and deepest position on the team.
We likely won't hold you to <100 yards rushing because with they style of aggressive defense we play, we will definitely give up some 10+ yard runs. But we will very likely get a bunch of TFLs on you guys. Should be a good game. You guys are playing into our strength though. We're straight up going to press man cover your wrs with a single high safety and pressure the **** out of your OL/QB/RB ALL game.

Last week all I did was harp on stats. Not this week. The team showed me they have another gear. If Our team plays with the same intensity we played vs VT (minus the turnovers). Sit back, relax, and watch a classic. Miami 23-20.

Dungey is definitely the best we faced, I think.

we also knocked the UNC QB out of the game.

We definitely absolutely punish opposing QBs, its undeniable.

There won't be any relaxing going on if it's that close.

OP said it best in the fewest words. Kind of like Lincoln and his relatively short Gettysburg address.

 

[swampcougar1]

ND played Ga at home. They have not played a team as good as the Canes on the road and have not played a game all year as loud as this one will be. Canes started the year with virtually a new defensive backfield. Took them a while to get in sync with the front 7. This team turned the corner vs VT. The players.know the history and will be playing with a chip on their shoulders. I love the Canes chances to win this game

So this will be like the third or fourth time nd is being threatened with the best dL comment. And I’m not saying your wrong, but what makes miami different from Georgia, Michigan State, nc stats, Boston college who all stated that they had first round lineman? Bc the only one that showed nd up was Georgia. Is it just depth to keep talent fresh? Or is it talent?

Nelson is freakishly good, mcglinchy is good run, but struggles with speed on pass. Now the right side is ok at run but pretty solid with pass

I won’t relax till it’s over, even if we have a lead I’ve seen what miami can do
