Notre Dame Football

Because it isn't.

 

FWIW, I think the football program at PSU got royally screwed so a whole bunch of stupid people could feel good about themselves. Much the same way the PSU guy in this thread is an idiot who is tossing a bunch of crap against the wall to try to feel better about himself.

 

I know it's not. It was a (albeit poorly-conveyed) sarcastic response to his previous statement that the University was funded by a church supporting pedophiles.

trap game this weekend? mannnnn I hope not.....boys need to come to play, and im sure they will

 

intriguing games as far as national championship implications this weekend: Bama vs LSU, Oregon vs USC....hoping for at least one of the top two to be knocked off...make that road to the ship easier for ND

 

Go Irish!!

This should get interesting. Notre Dame should win their next 3(they have Pitt/BC/Wake Forest). That sets the stage for the finale @ the Collesium which imo would be a toss up. K State has a much tougher road to finish undefeated(Home against Oklahoma St/@ Baylor/@ TCU/home to Texas). Alabama has got (@LSU, A&M, W Carolina & Auburn). Then of course if they beat LSU this weekend all likel;yhood an SEC championship game against Georgia. Oregon has @ USC, @ Cal, Stanford & then @ Oregon State & then the Pac 10 championship.

 

One could argue that Notre Dame has the path of least resistence to an undefeated season. If they do go 12-0 my guess is that they are in the NC even if there is 2 more undefeated teams.

You need Oregon to lose, so USC can start gaining some traction, so when ND beats them it will help more in the computers.

 

Ahh, what a system!!

Gotta love a system where by winning a game, you hurt yourself in the eyes of the computers.

What is the deal with Gunner Kiel? Is he redshirted for the year?

 

GREAT win, way to not give up ND....obviously would have liked that to not even be close...but a win is a win

 

great question about Gunner Kiel - between Reese and Golson I havent heard a lick about Kiel....FWIW Kiel isnt even listed on ND's official depth chart

 

a google search turns up zero answers and my ND weekly magazine offers no insight either....

I was thinking before the game that ND probably had no better than a 50/50 shot to reach the USC game still undefeated. I'm not surprised Pitt turned out to be such a battle. ND has done this throughout its history -- played amazing against great teams and then struggled against much lesser competition. But I've always thought it had as much if not more to do with opponents getting 'up' for ND as it did with ND having let downs. The problem for ND is that every opponent they play has the ND game circled as one of the 2 or 3 biggest games on their schedule. ND has to be ready to meet a psyched up opponent every week, and that's not an easy challenge.

I agree completely...

 

hopefully the boys come ready to play for the next two weeks and dont look ahead to USC

 

however...I dont see Oregon/ND/K-State losing.....which means....an Irish Rose Bowl???

It's very Crayonz-esque indeed.

 

How about two 2-loss teams being ahead ahead of a 1-loss FSU and an unbeaten Louisville in the latest standings? I thought (or so i've been told) that the regular season means everything in college football?
