Bill the Cat – a desperate choice for desperate times!
I believe that was his Presidential slogan in ’84, yes? I woulda voted for him, but I was only 11.
The Notre Dame game was a clear coaching failure. Maybe that one game (where even a simpleton like myself could see what obviously was going to be the adjustment the Irish would make, and how we logically had to anticipate and counter it) showed a more big picture flaw – we react too much, and too slowly, rather than anticipate what the other team is going to do to counter-punch. That, combined with our lack of killer instinct, just buries us.
Thank God we do keep fighting, at least.
