I would like to think that but I’m not believing Carr or Denbrock will come through.

They’ve shown nothing to support a positive outcome in this game and in this season, 10 and 2 is not good. In fact, they’ve shown the opposite of their forecast and that includes Ash on defense. If Miami has a strong start ND won’t be able to overcome that.

It’s possible ND pulls this one out but there’s nothing in their resume of playing poorly early in games in a weak schedule which shows much promise.

I’m not sure why the Vegas line has ND by 5.

Confidence is very low.

Sadly, I think ND 10 - UM 38. I hope I’m wrong. ND has the talent to wipeout UM but game day coaching and Carr’s erratic play (choosing receivers who are covered to those who are open) missing easy throws (he should have as many as 6 INT’s against lousy competition). UM pass rush will be relentless and with their talent on D line (Carr hasn’t seen this kind of pressure all season) it’s possible Carr will be sacked many, many times.

The hype around ND early season was absolutely wrong. In game coaching has failed this team this year once again.

At his point I’m a doubting Thomas.
