    A win is a win, keep chopping wood for four quarters every game Dawgs, only 11 more games to go. Hope my heart can take more close games like this.

    Any time you can beat a team who went undefeated (Regular Season) the previous year, while that team is likely better this year, it's a great win.

    I believe Notre Dame is a legitimate top 10 team. We will see...

    I was disappointed that the score wasn't bigger, but we could have easily scored another 3 touchdowns. I earlier thought the throw to Pickens in the end zone was PI, but it was just tough coverage.

    The drive where we got close and had the penalty that took us back and we had to settle for a field goal.

    If Simmons hadn't muffed the punt for ND's first score.

    I know those things happen, but if they hadn't, we were in position to really blow them out.

    Plus, look at the momentum that we lost when ND had the injuries (ha ha)...we were seriously driving and their D was getting gassed.

    We have a young team, so the experience they got was huge.

    Like you, I think that ND is legitimately top 10 and they played us hard. They played Clemson hard in the semifinal last year, until Clemson just wore them down and took over. That was beginning to happen in our game.

    I just hope we can build on this and open up the offense.

    I have no doubt the players are playing their hearts out. I love this coaching staff and our head coach but they are going to have to step up their game in the coming weeks from in game decisions to play calling. We have the bosses it’s just time to turn them loose. Go Dawgs!

    What if the other team doesn't just let us run them over??? Yall are some bad couch coaches. We aren't gling to blow everyone out and it's a good thing to have been tested for 4 qtrs. Win by 1 or 50 its still one win.
