Board opinion: Is it scheme/coaching or talent with ND offense in big games? - jray - 8:53am 12/20/20 (14) [View All]
- 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
      - This is mostly true. [NT] - Frank L - 11:37am 12/20/20

  - He won't throw into a one on one matchup even if we have the bigger better receiver [NT] - OklahomaIrishman - 9:53am 12/20/20
    - ^^^^^^^^^THIS was the problem yesterday. The difference when he played well: he gave WRs a chance [NT] - jrdjr84 - 11:32am 12/20/20
- It looked like Rees coached scared yesterday. On 11/7 it was the opposite. He was aggressive. - NDavenue - 9:07am 12/20/20
  - Rees was Book’s QB mentor. He taught him everything he knows. - Aragoto - 9:41am 12/20/20
