Nah, not yet. He soaked us for two years and we're still paying his lame ass more than we're paying Kelsey. Let that sink in. I'll never let him up..

As long as were still paying him, or any other coach, they're fair game for ridicule

The game turned on two plays. In the fourth quarter Ohio State converted a 4th and 2 at the Texas 43. When they first lined up, Texas was confused and called a time out. They were still confused coming out of the TO, and the tOSU QB just ran at a bubble and got a big gain. They went on to score, 21-14. Texas then drives to the tOSU 1 yd line with a first goal and couldn’t get in. On 4th and goal from the 7, Evers is hit attempting to pass. The ball bounces right up to the tOSU player who hit him. He runs for a TD. the 4th and 2 and the 4th goal was the whole ball game.
I can’t help but watch these games, knowing how our game with ND went, and think we could play with these teams.

Maybe. I'll tell you if OSU pulls all that undisciplined crap they did last night,the Irish will take advantage of it.

Game reminded me of the games we had against Memphis State and Cincinnati. Refs were letting them get away with a lot of physical play. The one play I specifically remember is when Reyne went to the basket for a layup and was knocked halfway across the floor. Hadley got pushed around as well. At that time, could have been a big play as we could have taken the lead at that point. Glad we were able to come out of there with a win.

Oh gosh. If ND beats OSU then they are truly blessed. OSU is so much the better team and should win going away against the Irish.

We don't normally see a team of destiny in college football, but with the new 12 team playoff, it may just be the case. ND has been very fortunate to win the last two games which was the case on a few of their regular season wins, including the Louisville game.

I think the Cards lack of depth is probably going to cost us this game. The refs are just too inconsistent and the road team suffers the most.

So far this season, foul trouble hasn't been a killer, but you get conference road games like this and the Cards are two dudes short. The Cards need to make 3's and FT's to win this game, and they are not shooting well at all.

But maybe Kelsey has some magic left for this game?

Sorry but I disagree with the statement about lack of depth. Nobody fouled out, although I think Chucky and Hadley had to play more conservative. Waterman, Traore and Rooths weren't in foul trouble, they just weren't finding a way to contribute. They haven't been 2 dudes short during this last 5 game win streak. Doesn't do any good to say what if... at this point.

This team is just relentless. What an incredible bunch of players and coaches. We snagged the right coach at the right time.

Enjoy Cards fans.

I’m beginning to believe that he’s the best coach in the conference right now

Stubhub doesn’t print the tickets. They ultimately come from the university- ticket/holders who bought them resell them. So yes, the university benefits. But not really more than if we were playing Kansas State.

I don't believe the University can resell them at those prices, only ticket holders and that benefits them, not the university.

Certainly. I am not saying that. Just discussing the playing time perspective. I agree with you that it is odd that another local talent is bolting from town. Our vb program is top…what 5-10 in the country. Some are ready to take in that spotlight in their hometown - others are not.

I LOVE this team. Scrappy, competitive, and show a lot of grit.

When Rooths and Hadley were running down the tunnel they were saying to the Pitt fans "this ain't the same Ville.. Indeed it ain't.!!

I understand the people can't let Kenny Payne go. He was the worst coach ever. Time to move on from him.

There's just no other option to back up Chucky. Losing Johnson to injury was a killer.

He's a streaky player. He can give Chucky small breaks at point. His defense is good. Better than average player.
