not a dos a cero repeat, but IU coming to South Bend. #2 at #8, ACC Network extra. WTF is that?


Can’t overstate how awful ND highlight videos are

I went to YouTube to see the ND-produced highlight video of ND vs IU.

In 52 seconds, they show 4 plays. It ends with an ND player cutting through IU defense and scoring. Cool, I would guess Irish win 1-0.

However, I’ve seen these incomplete highlight videos before, so I then check website, where I’m disappointed to learn ND lost 2-1 in OT.

Why even make the video? Why not make a 3 minute clip and show more plays. Certainly at least show all the goals, and a frame at the end with final score. This is basic stuff, and frankly embarrassing that the quality and thought process are so poor.


It's similar to highlights of a penalty, but not the foul

They show 4 different angles of a boring penalty make but don't show the amazing move that actually earns the snoozer of a make.

Edit: This is done more in professional highlights but it exemplifies the people making these "highlights" have no idea what actually constitute the high points of the match.


Here's a look at the golden goal...

hard to tell if the deflection came off the ND defender or not.


Why was the ND keeper a yard deep in the goal? *

The only way that goal could not be offside is if the ...

... ball was played toward goal by a bad touch by an ND player. I cannot discern whether that is even a possible justification from that video clip.


Definitely off

Impacted the keeper before the deflection even happened (and I don't know if the deliberate deflecting rule applies to college soccer anyway).


He's in the goal already. That was awful *
