Hatred for Notre Dame is so deep seated in this country that people will go to Notre Dame simply to sabotage our program. Look at Nate Whitaker, he might as well have been called Nate Shitkicker while he was at Notre Dame. Poor field goal percentage, terrible amplitude on his kick offs. Goes to Stanford and all of the sudden he's a good kicker? I don't buy it.

I hate to think of which players in our front seven are the saboteurs. I know it is not Manti Teo. The lack of pressure is inexplicable apart from the Nate Whitaker effect. Stanford was getting consistent pressure with a three man rush and those three men were more often than not possession defenders. It makes no sense.

Tenuta knew what he was doing --- everywhere except ND. Is it in the water?

Notre Dame's football program has been sabotaged from a variety of different angles over the last two decades. The all out saboteurs such as Nate Whitaker and Jon Tenuta (terrible play calling, unwillingness to recruit) have played their part in recent history. But it's the naive saboteurs, those who feel they are helping but are doing nothing but emasculating our program are the foremost ills in this ever descending product.

What I saw today was Notre Dame being whipped by a team whose styles is that which Notre Dame should be.
