The Future
Hey I am as pissed as you all are about getting beat yesterday and your team didnt get smoked despite having almost 550 yards of offense...
But we both have very young talent at the QB, receiver and rb postions as well as some young studs on defense! ND even has a couple of soph's on the o-line.
In a year or two we may both be happy....

It's probably a good idea to not enter the lions den, when they're pissed off. Might wanna come back later in the week, and try consoling everyone.

He does have a point, though. We've got what, 5 seniors starting on Offense and defense combined? The team has a lot of growing up to do, and this is one of those things they have to experience. The real test is what they learn from last night. By the end of this season, I think we'll be proud of our team, and the way they've matured in a few short months. And next year.... God help the rest of the conference. The Big 2 will be back in their usual form, and the finale will be a great one.
I'm not saying this year is a wash. Not one little bit. I'm saying this is a learning experience, and knowing Tress, it'll become a focal point for the rest of the year. We'll see a more focused, determined team next week, and look for good things to happen for us.

Nice try NDChump. But your team is fucked up much beyond ours. How many straight failed seasons have you had? When was your last BCS bowl win? When will you fire your next coach? Only an idiot would draw parallels to Notre Dame and OSU.

VPR,
I couldn't agree with you more, Am I pissed off We lost, Hell Yeah I'm pissed off, but this is a very young team, We had a record number of people from one team get draft into the nfl this past year. This team lacks experience and there is only one way to get that, and that is to play the games.
You can practice all you want, but the actual games are where you are going to learn how to make adjustments, and to become a leader on the field. So hell yes I'm pissed right now, but lets see where this team is by the end of the year and where We go from here

Youth cost us last night but it wasn't just the youth of the players, it was the youth of our defensive coordinator. One of Mark Dantonio's greatest strengths was making adjustments to what the offense was trying to do. Snyder had no answer for Northwestern's offense last night. I don't think he did a particularly good job against Marshall and NC State doesn't have a quarterback.
The young players on the team will improve with experience. Hopefully the same can be said for Mark Snyder.
