ND 2 Houston 1

Baylor 4 Houston 1

 

Scores could swing in Houston's favor if the center ref is not consistent and stong enough to keep the game under control.

Why is Notre Dame playing one of their home games at Baylor?

 

 

Good question. It was originally scheduled for Sunday at 2:00 at Notre Dame, but we're told that the game had been moved back to noon at Houston's request (which makes sense since they have a long drive home after the game). The same message said the game had been moved to Baylor, but not why. It's speculation, but it's probably at one of the coaches' request. Asumming we will be able to play on the primary Baylor field, it's a much larger and wider field than ND's field.

 

I don't think the girls really care, but it was one of only 4 home games this season (out of 16 scheduled games). With it being a Sunday afternoon, student turnout would probably be low anyway,

Thanks DonCChatt for the info. That makes sense about the field situation. Baylor's is such a nice complex....wish the Owls had something close to it. Why did ND only have 4 games scheduled for home out of 16 games? That is a bummer for your fans and players.

 

Back to the original post.....here is my prediction

 

Baylor 2

Houston 0

 

Notre Dame 2

Houston 1

 

Good luck Baylor and Notre Dame

If you think it is to get Notre Dame from its "Home Field Advantage", consider this:

1. Notre Dame does not practice at school, instead practicing at Redoubt Soccer Fields

2. At this point in the season, Notre Dame has played two total games at Notre Dame -- the Alumni game in the preseason, and a single game two weeks ago against Signal Mountain

3. At this point in the season, Notre Dame has played 4 games at Baylor (Hutcheson, JPII, Ensworth, and Baylor).

 

You could certainly argue that ND is comfortable playing at Baylor.

Look on the bright side....ND saved some money on paint this year. /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
