I agree. Greathouse is better with a head of steam. I'd play man and force him to beat us with his route running. We have the size to match up with him and Fields.

Fields has been giving NDs All-American corners fits in practice. I'm still not convinced Miami matches up well against him specifically
 
this kid is a really good ND podcaster. He's confident its Minchey and the guy he has on (from the athletic) thinks so too. Neither sound excited whatsoever and both thought Carr was the man. This is a major advantage for us. That line will move close to a pickem if we break camp healthy.

They have no reason to think otherwise.

I could see why they have confidence, but boat racing Canes? We started Emory back to back games at 18 years old and beat Clemson and lost to top 5 FSU by 7…. Last year both losses were by one possession. Only once in the last 25 games has Mario’s team lost by more than 10.

Questionable calls from the Rio and his staff late need to be accounted for, but it’s obvious the talent has been raised significantly… idk if anyone in America is “boat racing” Canes.

They're laundry bros talking like fans.

If they're confident in this, play the Alt lines. I'm sure you can get an insane price on ND -10 or more. But they won't, because they're just fans talking like fans.

They have a brand new QB starting on the road and we have dominant lines. That's not the recipe for a boat race.

exactly.... I know how we would feel with no QB1 selected 2 weeks before opener in a hostile environment and neither QB with experience....

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve seen some UM fans online talking about “Canes by 20” and I feel the same way bout them too 😂

Like where the **** y’all coming up with these takes.

What makes you say their ends are elite? Neither were full time starters last year and they’re both undersized, converted linebackers.

Traore and Young are the DEs who will be in the game on passing downs. They are not converted linebackers. Young is a monster.

And despite playing 4 more games, ND had 44 less passing attempts on the season, than UM.
You can’t get sacked if you’re not passing.

I predict UM gets 3+ sacks in this game.

Great point. Also, they had a QB who was very difficult to sack.

according to many, burnham and the poly kid will start - they are both converted LBs. Young and Traore appear to be backups that will get some PT.

It is Minchey. Will be announced today. Great source on this, one of the other QBs.

I'll bet if you asked 100 "informed" ND fans over the summer, 98 or 99 would've told you Carr was going to start. This would be a big surprise.
