Notre Dame Stunned by Marshall; What Now For Marcus Freeman?

welcome to the shamrock i'm pete sampson,at top notre dame stadium joined by matt,fortuna back home in chicago and,matt this is a a tough one to make sense,of because,we've been covering durian a long time,this is a game door name always found a,way to win under brian kelly they won 42,straight against unranked competition uh,marshall,upsets notre dame as a 20-point underdog,26-21,the offense very stagnant they may have,a quarterback injury to deal with moving,forward there's no run game they,couldn't tackle at the end of the game,it uh,it's a very difficult thing to process,in marcus truman afterwards when asked,about you know where do you start,he kind of said everything which is i,think the most alarming answer you can,give,because,ever you can't fix everything in one,week or two weeks or three weeks um the,everything is what you need to get done,in august and spring practice and summer,workouts and here notre dame is sitting,here 0-2 marcus freeman 0-3 the first i,think the first story of head coach to,fall that went three um,it is uh,it's a tough place to be for a program,that's ranked in the top five to begin,the season and now may be unranked,entirely they should be unranked i mean,the most,the loss itself is perplexing like we,can talk about this for the next hour,and still not make a whole lot of sense,of it but what makes even less sense is,like watching that game and looking at,the post-game stats like marshall is a,better team like it wasn't even like,not even close marshall out gained the,more total yards they outrushed them 219,to 130. they averaged 5.1 yards per play,more than their name at 4.7 uh they won,the turnover battle three to nothing,i tweeted that marshall defensive line,looks like the second coming of the,steel curtain against notre dame's,offensive line i mean it was a joke it,it's one of those losses that and we can,do this i guess because it's new,coaching staff and and we don't,um,you know we don't have like the body of,work to rely on like we did with brian,kelly whereas i'm like i feel like this,is a loss that calls everything into,question like they do not look like a,functional operation right now on the,field they can't move the ball against,marshall like that's concerning if it's,fourth and one and you're going for it,and you're running with your bulldozer,running back and you can't get it,like i don't know what you do like it,was,listen to the post game i mean,not that you expect these guys have,answers postgame not that you expect,them to like go all right wrong crazy,you know right when they get to the,podium with us but you know it was very,much like it's working in camp it's,where you michael mayer was very adamant,like we ran the ball extremely well in,camp i don't think we're that far off,it's just something we're doing on game,day i don't know if he's right i don't,know if he's wrong,something has got to change i mean that,is i mean you talk about the honeymoon,period wearing off fast holy cow i mean,this this is as bad as it gets as far as,football wise i just,might but i cannot wrap my arm around,everything we just saw over the last,three hours,yeah great like i said the grace period,for marcus freeman would last to the,next loss after ohio state i thought,that maybe would be in november we're,here sitting here on september 10th,talking about it yeah i mean it's uh,notre dame sort of bring you we crawl,and i wrote about it and it was,important to people just about you know,bringing back the pregame mass and,walking the stadium and they call that,the victory march and i mean it's just,like,it just sort of turned the day turned,into ash in everyone's mouth here um,you know to get,pushed around on both lines um to to,have,really,poor quarterback play across the board,you know drew pine comes in at the end,throws it straight to a linebacker that,is just waiting for the ball to come to,him,um it it was brutal it was brutal to,watch,i think that,you know i sort of usually give players,and especially players usually often,coaches a pass about sort of the post,game emotion and reading too much into,that because,the season,basically ended today in terms of what,the season was supposed to be there's,still 10 games to go there's still a lot,to play for but,in terms of reaching your goal of,contending for the playoff or being in,the mix when the prankies come out,that's done um and like like you said,matt it calls into question everything,and when everything is called into,question that is just an incredibly,uncomfortable place to be i mean we why,don't we just start with the offense,like,norton's entire offense today the only,thing that was functional were tyler,buckler's legs and michael mayer's all,body parts that was it like everybody,else on the offense was poor um i don't,think that you could point to a single,player who who played well,other than like half of tyler buckner,and all of michael mayer you know the,logan digs third down blitz pickup which,looked just like
