    I suspect most Georgia fans think their team played pretty poorly tonight. Because they kinda did.

    Do you know what the difference between us and Georgia is in the last twenty years?

    This team is an elite QB away from being a playoff team

    Instead we have an overachieving 3 star who isn’t getting any better

    Everything hurts. Beeds07 threw a great tailgate and is both a gentleman and a scholar. IrishLAX2 i am sorry I missed you.

    The UGA fans were really hospitable. Tough loss but the team played hard. Turnovers really hurt us - we needed a clean sheet. The defense was most impressive.

    I'm gassed but it was a good time. ND fans represented well in Athens.

    The one thing that is bugging me most right now is all our dudes coming back who were elite last year have been just ok or slightly better. Havent noticed Gilman, Okwara or Kareem making impact plays

    The regression is worrying. And beist has a great theory on this, I kind of agree with him. The desperation is just not always there.

    But I thought the dline played pretty well

    They went to the playoffs once, Nd went to the playoffs once....they lost a big bowl...Nd lost a big bowl in 2015


    It is exactly the same except Nd won more games and they won face to face by 8 points

    The argument that guys at Notre Dame regress because they aren't desperate is perhaps the laziest and most insulting thing I could possibly imagine as a take. It's utterly nonsensical.

    Are we talking about Georgia or Oklahoma here?

    Anyway, it doesn’t really matter. I think we kind of agree but express it differently. Frustrating loss. I think kelly hit his ceiling, it’s not disastrous but the challenge would be to find a good transition with a coach that could put Nd on top. Because I once thought that this team was never going to be able to get enough talent to win big. I no longer think that it’s the case.

    And I will give you that one Thoros of Beer , for all your negativity you always said that Nd could compete if they recruit well. There is no excuse to be made there. The talent on the field tonight seemed very comparable

    We don't really have the talent to win big, not with the current coaching staff. Time, and time again, they've proven they don't have what it takes to coach what we have into an elite team.

    A team is only as good as their head coach. I'm sure IrishLAX2 would agree. Elite coaches are everything.

    The penalties were a disgrace. That's coaching, sorry. 10 years in and Brian is managing to break his own record with most penalties committed.
