ND has much more talent overall than MSU (over rated) ND was clearly a much better team than South Florida and Michigan and this week that will show. While I would love to see ND go 0-12, I think 8-4 or 9-3 is more realistic. MSU will not be able to run the ball well enough to keep the pass rush off of Cousins, MSU will be the team with the turnovers this week.
After watching the first few games of the season how do you come to the conclusion that MSU is overrated and that ND is clearly a better team than the 2 teams they lost to lol

I'm hoping that ND limits the turnovers and comes out looking like they did in the first half of the UM game.


Also, I'm hoping that Monday morning, there is another meltdown in Michigan like this one...

LOL. ND has choked on applesauce two weeks in a row so that's appropriate in more ways than one.

It's just this simple....stop turning the fucking ball over so much and you'll start winning games.

GO IRISH! BEAT SPARTY!

Note to John L Smith, learn the effin rules and understand that timeouts aren't like cellphone minutes, they don't carry over!

Instead of driving it in real deep, you let them get into halftime so fat boy can feed em pudding.

Love that rant!

^^^Shit was gold.

Wow, Herbie just said that he didn't think ND was a BCS Bowl team before the season but after the last two weeks....he now thinks they are a BCS Bowl team....if they stop turning the ball over.

Ben Turk is worse in warmups than in games if that's possible. Shanking everything.

A steady dose of Cierre Wood to start the game. Nice run.

Wood is ND's most improved player thus far this season. Not even debatable IMO.

Just as I was about to say something about how mad I am that Harrison Smith is still starting...he comes up to make a nice tackle on that play. Might have been the best hit he's had in his career.

Eh, he held him up enough and stopped him well short of the 1st. After the last two weeks....I'll take it.
