Twitter reacts to Tyler Buchner’s second touchdown for Notre Dame
The game between Notre Dame and Marshall won’t be the romp many expected it to be. All that matters to Irish fans now is that their team escape with a win. The Herd have refused to simply roll over inside Notre Dame Stadium, and it’s an effort no one thought would pay off like it has. The Irish have been playing from behind almost the whole way.
The Irish finally put together another decent offensive drive late in the third quarter. Tyler Buchner completed a couple of long passes to Michael Mayer and Kevin Bauman, respectively. At the start of the fourth quarter, Buchner put the Irish back in front:

Buchner then ran for a two-point conversion to put the Irish up, 15-12. Irish fans have been waiting patiently to tweet happiness about their team again, and the opportunity finally came. Here a few of the folks talking about Buchner:

I just gotta keep saying it — let Buchner ball. He’s not at his best when he’s not using his legs. Doesn’t mean he has to be running every other play.
But his legs give the Irish offense some good misdirection that they desperately need. That’s why he’s the quarterback.

I think letting Buchner just be Buchner is a good idea.

You have Pyne. Run Buchner until the wheels come off.

If you're going to play Buchner you can't run the Jack Coan offense. Buchner's read option ability is going to determine the success of this offense.

This is exactly why they should of started Buchner last year. Guy would be light years ahead if he had a staff that believed in him.

Buchner should be a threat to keep the ball on EVERY SINGLE ‘and short’ play
