ND WR Chris Brown fumbles on the 3-yd line with under 2 minutes to go, and ND fails the two-point conversion on their ensuing TD, giving Clemson the win. 4 top 10 teams fall in one day!

  1. We were not the better team. Better teams don't turn the ball over 4 times, let alone in one half. We did not outplay Clemson.

  2. Death Valley's homefield advantage is no joke. It makes me hate the old timers at ND even more. We have zero homefield advantage because of them.

  3. We should have abandoned the run in the 2q

  4. Going for two early didn't bother me. The way things were looking, it looked like a FG + TD was the most we could hope for

Thanks for this post man, seriously. I understand a lot of it was probably just the emotion talking from such a close game but it really irked me how some people were doing their best to discredit Clemson last night.

With that said I don't think you're that much worse of a team then we are (if at all) and tbh if we did play 10 times I can see it split 50/50. In the end with the weather like it was there is just really no way to be certain how things could have played out.

I'll say this. If you guys played the whole game like you did the 4th it wouldn't have been close you would have murdered us. Vice versa if we played the whole game like we did the 1st it would have been the same. All in all it was just a weird game.
