Same with Book. You have to take shots down field. He was doing that the last several games even if the WRs were covered. Let them make plays!
Defense was obviously poorly prepared. Out of position on way too many plays. We should have been able to hold Clemson to 20/21 points.

- Board opinion: Is it scheme/coaching or talent with ND offense in big games? - jray - 8:53am 12/20/20

- I think it is hard to judge the scheme because Book never gave WRs a chance to win a 50/50 ball [NT] - jrdjr84 - 11:34am 12/20/20
- Easy. Lack of preperation. Look at ND openers, coming off bye weeks or bowl / playoff - oldirish - 10:29am 12/20/20
- Coaching. When adversity hits they seem to just fold up. Can never muster a response in big games. [NT] - jonpaultoo - 10:14am 12/20/20
- In my opinion, it boils down to Book - MarkHarman - 9:19am 12/20/20

- Well, it's basically the same D as before. The play calling kept him in as a pocket passer this - oldirish - 7:15pm 12/21/20

- I agree with this - Mark - 9:54am 12/20/20
- He won't throw into a one on one matchup even if we have the bigger better receiver [NT]
