tOSU's defense is top notch
I think they could have made almost any top notch look average today.
Texas' defense was good as well.
If he was Arch Smith no one would have any idea who he was. Name Bias.

Just a guess
First time road starts usually don’t go well.
First time road starts against a top 5 team, probably go worse.
I’m sure Arch will be fine
Julian sayin out performed him

That scares me because of all the hype and more experience than our guy but his passing was very
inaccurate. He will get better. I hope Carr exhibits better accuracy.
Both team’s offensive game plans were very conservative.

To me...that is the key. Denbrock needs to be unpredictable and use his strengths well while team
and especially the OL needs to execute and do their job. Carr does not need to be Dan Marino or Tom Brady. He needs to be CJ Carr and play football efficiently like he knows. The coaches need to counter the Miami hyper energy and use the ND strengths and they will be fine. Lots of weapons but they can't drop easy balls or allow free blitz runners for big sacks early...which you can bet Miami will try to do. But this is not the 2017 ND team...it has far more talent....and hopefully a far better plan against that disaster. After watching the four playoff games of last season (and attending the Sugar Bowl with my alum daughter), I am far more comfortable with the ability of this staff and the talent of this team to compete with anyone.
The first couple or three series for each team should be of high dramatic interest.
Agree.

Sounds like a lot of folks bought the ESPN hype.
After 40+ years of the same nonsense you'd think folks would actually stop listening to the BS and wait to see what the reality is. Guess not.
Remember it is the first game.

Kid may end up being the greatest QB of all time, we don't know.
But that was my point, folks are convinced he's a great QB with no evidence, just hype.
It seems DC-think has allowed him to get in rythm.

His throws aren’t very sharp, but O gameplan isn’t mind blowing either. First game

O Play calling sucks - OSU D is up to the task.

No athlete would make a disparaging remark regarding the demise of young Arch today as every one
of them has foundered under the spotlight. But my fondest hope when the lights come on tomorrow night is that young Mr. Carr avoids the same demise.
Watching with the same concerns. One never knows.
Manning has played meaningful snaps before.
OSU is blanketing their WRs.
Exactly....coverage seems NFL elite. Nowhere to throw it.
Fortunately...if the Irish OL is as good as their hype, ND can run it a bit more effectively than the Horns. I have faith that Freeman will test all the waters and find the safest shallows.
Manning doesn’t seem to be very accurate.

Throws a dime 35 yds downfield and misses easy 10 yd throw - all day

Reminded me of Dayne Crist. Looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane.

3,348 yards, 17 tds, 4 ints in his last two years. WTF. You’re the data Jane, dude.

^^^^This! A heisman candidate based on last name only.

Well it is the first game, I think he turns out good but today was rough and no one should mention
Heisman yet for sure.
Exactly, we have ZERO idea how Carr is going to turn out…ZERO
