27-6

[buzzn]

Both streak kills (and the streaks themselves) are great sports trivia answers. I wish I could find a sports book willing to give the 10 points you're giving. I'd load up on that. Most other Irish fans seem a little more concerned after the loss of Zaire.

Tech had a 31 game winning streak broken at South Bend in 1953. That one really hurt. The pain lingers to this day.

Revenge is a dish best enjoyed cold.

 

[Jean-Baptiste Rochambeau]

I will but I doubt that will be necessary. GT will be a very tough game for us mostly because of the novelty of the offense. We've been practicing defending it since the spring so we should be prepared. I expect a fairly close game: ND 34-GT24

No you won't. You're about to be spanked like you haven't been spanked since Gerry Faust paced the sidelines. It will all become clear to you Saturday night that Manti Teo was you last claim to fame. Who plays when Kizer is carted off?

wow. I have utmost respect for anyone who is still hanging around who remembers that game. I am getting into my "autumn years" as a Hallmark card might say and the one major thing left on my bucket list is to get really old. I want to see three GT NC's in my lifetime (as long as I'm not wearing diapers for the 3rd one).

Our fans completely underestimate the skill of DeShone Kizer who will replace Malik Zaire on Saturday. My Lord, could he have entered his first game under any more pressure in C'ville last Saturday? Still, he went 8 for 12 and threw a PERFECT 40 yd TD pass for the win with 12 seconds to go. He's also 6' 4.5" and 230. Think a faster Cardale Jones with a brain. According to his HS coach he was a virtual "Joe Montana in the Cotton Bowl vs. Houston" during his HS career. He's a much better player than you folks are expecting.

I wonder how long he and the offense will be on the field?

Tulane would have beaten Virginia. Put down the pipe. Las Vegas would not agree with the Montana reference. Unless you mean Tony Montana.

What is so novel about a simple little high school offense? No preparation is even needed. Big, fast, and smart is all it takes to stop it, so no worries. You guys ought to give your first team the rest of the week off and just let your subs play the game.

Your problem is that he doesn't play defense

I think Notre Dame is a really good team, and I think that QB will cause problems for us, but I don't see you guys being able to stop us. That puts a lot of pressure on a guy making his first full start, and he will probably make a mistake or two if we can get some pressure on him. I think it will be close until we pull away a little in the second half. We will wear your defense down until they virtually give up. I think we'll score at least 42 and I say we win 42-27. It'll be a fun one.

Good to know. Thanks! I agree that it says a lot about the young man to come into that situation and throw a game winner.

 

[AE 87]

Just FYI, @Irish Jacky, we scored more than 24 in every game last year.

With the exception of the game winner in which the UVA corner was beat so bad he must have slipped or something, Kizer was 8 for 12 throwing a bunch of short outs and screens, should have thrown 2 picks, stared down his 1st option, and looked like Bambi in headlights. Our d-backs are trained to cover receivers longer than Tenuta's.

Anybody know what 27-6 refers to?

Want to guess what 27-7 refers to?

Or, you can wait until Saturday then you won't have to guess.

Your father's age, followed by your age.

Having been to South Bend, the ND fans are a classy bunch. ND message board visitors, not so much.

 

[Northeast Stinger]

Hasn't this been fun!

We get a visitor, treat him with predictable Southern hospitality, trade some technical information and stats from the two programs, and offer to be godparents to each others grandchildren. Don't you love social media?

It feels like we starting to generate some real energy for this game and it is only Tuesday.

 

[UgaBlows]

Unless you've got a front 7 absolutely loaded with stud, future NFL picks then i don't see you holding GT to 24

Irish Jacky, have you ever heard the saying, "Arrogance and Stupidity are wed"?

They cannot stop us can only hope to contain the ramblin wreck.
