Notre Dame 50 Syracuse 33
It looked like both teams thought it would be neat to go over 100 combined points. Both defenses were equally bad and both offenses left points on the board, but at least ND won.
Even with all this offense it was a dull and disappointing game. Can’t get jacked with ND when you know down the road someone will blow the doors down.
ND looked like they emptied their defensive bench as just about everybody played.
On offense Kizer went for 471 yards, 3 TD’s and 1 Pick. Adams went over 100 yards rushing. Equanimeous St. Brown is our next receiving star. ND has a big problem in that the OL just cannot get any push when you just need a yard or so.
I just can’t fathom that when you look at what we recruit and the backs we have it’s mostly east/west running. It was very noticeable with all the guys playing that Zaire sat on the bench.
Syracuse has a nice fast offense and those kids played hard, hell they hung just short of 500 yards on ND. Their QB hit for 363 yds and 2 TD’s. If they were luckier they could have won this game.
Kizer is a really good player, but man is he hot and cold – a lot of misses in this game. I wish to hell Kelly would leave him alone. No doubt in my mind he goes PRO.
When we hit the hard part of our schedule we gotta go over 60 points.
