Married into an ND family. Went to first big college game today, in South Bend. The whole ND experience was incredible. They handily beat Wake, as expected.

 

Then came Baylor??? Amazing. But Stanford, too??? I thought for sure my Bills fandom would bring a curse to this team. They fought through it.... to #1!

As much as I'm on board, I'm not counting a win against USC yet. My first sporting heartbreak was when I was 8 years old in 1970 and I thought Theisman's team was going to win it all and they got upset by USC in the last game.

Me either. The Trojans have owned us and are a match up nightmare, despite their record. They're really talented.

The ND game day experience on campus is really special, I'm glad you got to go. People love the school and the community, not just the football. It's what the haters don't understand or appreciate about ND.

Color me a ND hater, but you guys better be praying to your Golden Dome that Michigan beats Ohio State. Because if OSU goes undefeated and you guys win the National Title, there will always be that cloud hanging over.

 

No there won't. I've been only vaguely aware of OSU's existence this year and no one will remember anything about OSU in 2012 no matter what their record. When was the last time anyone mentioned the 1993 Auburn team?

 

But I'll be looking for you to bring this up again if Alabama or Georgia ends up winning the NC. ;)

UCLA did ND a favor by taking out Barkley, I doubt he plays next week after separating his shoulder yesterday. Without him I don't see how USC has a chance.

Don't worry, I'll remind any fans of the eventual National Champs

CHAMPIONSHIP!!!! LETS GO IRISH!!!

 

if Barkley doesnt play on saturday, that spells bad news for the condoms....really, really hoping he is sitting on the sidelines (a couple plays he made in that loss yesterday were INCREDIBLE, and im not necessarily a Barkley lover, but he extends plays and makes great throws - but also makes errors) - any way ya slice it, id prefer they are playing a back up at the most important position on the field....

 

then wait a month, and championship!!!!!

As always, anything can happen, but one of the most talented coaches in college football against one of the biggest hacks in recent history? I'm expecting a fairly easy ND win.

 

The NC will be another story though. At this point, no matter who they are up against is going to be very tough.

I'm ND neutral, but living in Columbus now...no way. This OSU team would get their asses handed to them by any of the top 6 teams (OSU excepted :D ). I have little doubt that UM will build up OSU into a powerhouse but they are far from that today.

ND has beaten Albama 5 out of thelast six times they played them including Sugar and Orange Bowl games. I like hte history. I am in SEC country and one of the guys I work out this morning complained about strength of schedule. I pointed out to him that while ND was playing Wake Forest on Saturday Alabama played Western Carolina (I've never heard of it either...earlier in the season they played Florida Atlantic.).

 

I attended the Wake Forest senior day pep rally and game....they do put on one hell of an event at that place.
