Notre Dame did? Could this be a measuring stick at selection time?

I really love the way Dabo gets everyone playing time, but with our schedule this year I think we better turn it up a notch and get some convincing wins.

We’re playing 2’s & 3’s in the 1st QTR. Notre Dame would have to have a 6 hour meeting just to figure out who their 3’s are. If Notre Dame’s 1’s can’t win them the game, then it’s over.

Blow out wins aren't important. Playing well is important, and blow out wins come as a result of that.

To be fair now that it's real evaluations, I don't think so. ND left their starting QB in the entire game with a 30 point lead, that will be remembered. Their lack of depth will come to be prominent as the season goes on.

not a big deal....that was book's first start.....

so he was technically their "2nd string QB" anyways.
no different IMO than running TL out against GT when they pulled within 21 points.
we should do what any team should do when they out man an opponent at every position........and that's impose our will and leave no doubt.

That won't be needed. If it is down between us and Notre Dame at the end. Our conference championship will keep them on the outside looking in.

I don't. Wake is a classy program with classy fans. They had our back in the early 80s.

That’s all fine and good. But it didn’t stop us from beating them 82-24 in 1981, so not sure why it would stop us now...

Yes, unfortunately. It will be discussed if it gets down to

matchups in the CFP selection room.
It would truly be great to have a repeat of Saint DanniFords' 82-24 game, but I expect instead another nail biter.

Yes! Winning by 1 point is all it takes, but THIS YEAR is feeling different. Dabo does need to find a way for the co-ocs to get the offense blowing these teams out the rest of the way. And our nasty D needs to stave off late scores that make it look closer than it is. Sure we can keep going on the committee will grade us with a curve if our record is the same as the other big boys. Or we could leave no doubt that we are the best of the top 4 programs on the field!

A 1 pt win and ND loss to VT will do it. But these close games are killing my blood pressure. Hoping for at least a 21pt win.

Like someone said on here weeks ago, we will probably be undefeated with a bunch of ugly wins but it still beats 1 pretty loss.

quarter, 28 vs Notre Dame. Scored 55 on Texas AM last year. They have generally had better offensive numbers than we have the last couple of years. And they play our defense and we play theirs to figure into the stats. I hope we win, I'm not sure about blowout.
