USF 23 ND 20
The day after the shock of this loss, a few things come to mind.
- This is not a BCS team
- ND does not have a QB
- ND has a schizo offense
- ND has moderate defense
- ND has a very slim chance for a major bowl.
- Kelly has to calm it down – looks like a maniac.
I think Kelly’s offense is a split second offense–sort of like a fast break for an entire game and for that to work you need a GOOD QB that can pass and run.
If you take Michael Floyd out– the offense will collapse.
With the schedule they have and the persistent problems they have in the red zone– it will be tough to win 6 games. Quite simply they have to have a high octane offense and put points up every offensive series to be competitive.
USF has a decent team but one of the weakest on the schedule.
So what do you do at the QB position? I do not believe Kelly has any time for Crist or Hendrix–so you go with Rees and slowly mix Golson into each game for a few series.
Of course that means Hendrix leaves. Now you have 3 QB’s with one solid hit on Rees just waiting to happen.
All of this spells trouble and with his over the top behavior he could easily lose this team.
Michigan is not USF and now I believe they blow out ND with Denard Robinson once again racking up over 500 yds total offense.
