The new feelings are as follows: This is the first time Notre Dame has lost to Southern Cal since 2016, and the first time they’ve lost the Thanksgiving weekend game* since the fourth quarter collapse in Palo Alto in 2017. Those are really impressive runs that have sent us into December in good spirits and now we have to grapple with the inverse. Frankly, I don’t love it.
Really enjoy your work and perspective, thanks for a great season of recaps. Really wish the first two drives ended on a positive note - we needed to establish some control of the line of scrimmage and possess the ball just to set the tone of the game. Valiant effort though.
