I haven't seen this posted anywhere so I thought I'd share that Notre Dame has found the blueprint for our offense. That's it guys, we're done! We need to close down the football program and focus on basketball and baseball.

Seriously, when the article's main image is Thomas getting horsecollar tackled that wasn't called and a whole bunch of gifs where I see numerous missed blocks and bad technique, you know you're in trouble.
 
Their corners were 7 yards off and backpeddling at the snap. How did we not start throwing WR screens to eat up 5 yards a play?
 
The blue print for stopping this offense (and any offense) is to dominate between the tackles. I was, sadly, impressed by ND's front 7. GT helped them out, but they were good.

I remember when people said in the early 90s that Tom Osborne's offense was "solved" and that no one would win with an ground based option offense. Nothing has changed from then until now... great athletes are disruptive to good offenses and commentators are, generally, stupid people.

GT needs to continue to recruit like crazy to get better at the G C G positions.
 
Watching that gif, I would love to see all of GT's opponents fire their safety like ND did.

JT just missed on making them pay a couple of times. I don't see him missing against future opponents.

This. It's safe to say that not all of the '70 missed assignments' were unforced. NDs front 7 + Jaylen Brown caused a lot of those missed assignments on their own.

PJ pretty much called out the tackles during the ACC teleconference yesterday.
 
I imagine Brian Kelly got really excited a day or two before the game when he heard CPJ tell ESPN that our game plan was to "do what we do" during our game against ND.
 
If you can dominate the LOS with 3 DL's you will win every game you play, regardless of offense.
 
Blueprint: Be well coached, disciplined and have superior athletes at every position.
 
Example, count the GT OL's on the ground blocking nobody

Again, OL on the ground, nobody blocked, assignments missed

When you watch all of the gifs on that article, even if we missed assignments, they had our option completely covered. 4 guys on our 2-man option on the perimeter.

We may have missed assignments, but we also didn't scheme very well vs what they were trying to do. I'm sure each play was a mixed bag, some were just straight missed assignments, but some were also just an outmatched scheme. And some were just simply getting whipped.

PJ typically can out-scheme and adjust against most defenses, but for whatever reason they had us covered all day. I can guarantee you he is at the drawing board right now.
 
They just stole images from the One Foot Down website. I hope they gave that guy a commission or something.
 
1) On just about every play they showed, I see at least one GT blocker flopping on the ground, badly missing his block.

2) They were asking to get beat deep all game, and we couldn't do it.

3) Jaylon Smith is really, really good.
