As both ND and USC stagger to last game of the season, the question is who quits first? Don’t know the answer to that question, outside of believing the ND freshman won’t quit – not sure of upperclassmen. Both teams have significant injuries and I believe USC will start 3 freshman OL. So that could

Game time for the USC game announced: National Fox Broadcast scheduled for 3:30 PM EST

The only good news for ND fans this weekend is that UCLA thumped USC 38-20, but then again UCLA has QB Hundley and Coach Mora. So USC and ND are both 7-4. This is the 2nd week in a row that ND could easily have won but blew it with the FG unit. Zaire once

Do I look worried?? Well, lets see: North Carolina – 50 points Navy – 49 points Arizona State – 55 points Northwestern – 43 points That’s an average of 49 points per game that ND is giving up and Louisville is certainly a better team than those listed above. Yet ND is favored by 3-4

Day Game in Arizona 3:30 EST ABC TV. This is a day game in Arizona at 3:30 EST ABC TV. Well, it’s going to be hot, but it is also going to be hot for ASU players as well since they usually play at night. The only thing troubling me for ND is the pace

Notre Dame just validated the Playoff Selection Committee ranking them number 10. Look for that to drop further after this game. There is just no way Navy would even be competitive against the current top 5. So wait til next year once again. Notre Dame had to make this a statement game and they did

How many teams get screwed back to back in 2 weeks? Just one… Notre Dame. First having the winning TD called back on a completely fraudulent partisan call to the number 1 or 2 team in the country. Second the playoff committee completely disses ND ranking them #10 which virtually puts them out of playoff
