  ND up 3-0 with 8:10 left in first quarter.

  Wow what a terrible spot...got an extra 2 yards there
• sherm03

  

  One down side to being independent...you get homered when playing at home.
  
  These refs are pathetic.
• grodt

  

  Big East refs are the worst group of refs in the nation bar none

  Yep...11/17 against one of the top rated passing defenses in the country...all while getting hammered almost every play is terrible.
  
  Stick to watching little boys play crab soccer and leave the sports talk to the real men.

  Good call.
• newarkcatholicfan

  

  Stanford must have over looked N.D. for this game to be this close.
• Automatik

  

  lol....nice effort on that 4th and 1.
• Leonardo

  

  Stanford with a one-yard touchdown run.
• cbus4life

  Wow. I honestly thought ND would win this one...
• sherm03

  

  I give up.
  
  New coach, new QB, same fucking shit.

  This will be another tight football game for ND and they have to find a way to make the one or two extra plays to win.

  
  
  excuse you rock? Stanford isn't playing Sacramento State today?? loloolol
• sherm03

  

  Where the fuck was THAT offense all game. THAT offense...that just executed an amazing drive would have been nice to see this whole game. Instead, they decide to shit the bed until there's 6 minutes to go and they are down by 28.

  Uh, come on, you know better than that. Its a bit eaisier to play offense with no pressure when your down almost 30pts AND the defense is playing prevent.

  THAT Offense is because Stanford called off the dogs.
  
  Notre Dame is just not a very good football team.

  Fucking Notre Dame. I love reading the homer comments by their fans. Never leaves me disappointed.

  Obviously the officiating in no way cost us this game. That being said, that spot on the 3rd and 1 late in the 1st was horse shit. Calabrese filled in and stopped Mr. 2-way for no gain. Oh well. We still got our ass kicked.
  
  Our defense could NOT get off the field on 3rd down. What hurts......our defense outplayed our offense today. Crist shit the bed. That 4th and 1 call early in the 4th after a TO was Weis-esque. AWFUL call. Handoff up the middle to Gray???? Really???
  
  Wood is a pussy on kickoffs. Get his ass out of there.
  
  Te'o played a whale of a game today. Blanton did a great job too. The rest of the defense.......eh. Walls missed a couple tackles. Brian Smith was mismatched in coverage a few times. We get ZERO pressure on the QB whether blitzing or a 3-man rush. Just disappointing.
  
  Has there been a tougher time to be an ND fan? I ain't going anywhere. These are tough times though....for sure.
• karen lotz

  

  Defense played pretty well considering how horrible the offense was. Holding Stanford to 1 TD and 4 FG's until late is a pretty good job. The offense was absolutely horrendous. They had their shot to get the team back in the game numerous times and got nothing.

  Agree 100% with everything you said.
  
  It's tough for sure...but I'll still wear my ND shirts and hats, and put on my jersey every Saturday to watch the games. But I am thinking I need to get a new one...this one seems to be jinxed.
• killer_ewok

  

  Defense overall was pretty good but 3rd down is money time and they couldn't get it done when it counted.

  Agreed. Still they gave up one touchdown. Need to get some kind of help from the offense.

  True but still. Make a stop when you need to.
