The Irish surprised everyone with a smothering of the feared “option” attack. Tip of the hat to VanGorder and staff for an attacking defense that seemed to come from everywhere. The DL played as hard as one can and Joe Schmidt was everywhere (10 tackles) as was Drue Tranquill until he was injured on a

Brian Kelly led off the press conference speaking about injuries with the latest TE Durham Smythe out for the season and these were not preventable – it’s just just football. Questioned about ILB Grace, we learn he is dinged up with ankle and hamstring issues. What the hell was he doing on the kickoff team?

Paul Johnson, the cerebral HC at Georgia Tech has been waiting years to come into ND Stadium with a real football team as opposed to when he was at Navy. Now he has first class athletes and they are not outweighed 50lbs per man. Think Navy on steroids and after watching the UVA game, where

Complacency set in, hard work lapsed and all of a sudden TCU, Baylor, Texas A&M, Texas Tech and SMU became cool.

I’m not sure this glorified scrimmage really proved anything outside of the fact that the 2nd team OL is shockingly bad. Here I thought the stockpile of 4-5 stars players would at least make them somewhat close to the 1st teamers. The announcers were talking about DL frosh Tillery and said starting senior Center Nick

12:30 PM EST April 18 NBCSN will air the Annual Blue and Gold game. So after weeks of getting snippets of approved video, fans will see live action. It will be interesting to see both QB’s go live. I think Zaire takes the reins for 2015, but may take until 5th game to do so.
