ND spent so much effort on it that the next week at PSU it showed (in addition to the lost of Rocket in the second half).

You wonder - blowing a 21-7 halftime lead - how much of it was just players who were worn out.

ND played PSU at home

Agree with you though.

ND seemed flat against PSU and didn't appear to have much left in the tank after playing at Tennessee the week prior.

It drove me crazy watching Holtz teams blow big halftime leads in '90(PSU-21-7) and '91(Tennessee-31-7).
You missed the 16-0 lead against Stanford in 1992.

Glyn Milburn basically ran in untouched for the final score at 33-16.

Our defense looked totally gassed and had given up.
