Its the bowl game. I could care less who we beat as long as we win that bowl game

I think that it is the Michigan game. I think there is a psychogical edge that the Skunkbears and Condoms have over our Irish right now, and we need to break through in a big way. I think a nice win over the Aztecs, perhaps in a 28/31-10 fashion would be a nice way to start the season, so as not to get too much overconfidence heading into a game that many say we should win over UM. A victory, regardless of score, vs. Michigan could set the table for a pretty amazing season.

Biggest game for me is SDSU. I think alot of people are already looking past them but that's the make it or break it game for the Irish. We win then hopefully we have the confidence to have a very good season. We lose, I look for another 3-9 and a Weis firing. Having played football most of my youth, I know how much confidence plays into winning and no matter what anyone says, it does. I think that is what happened to the Irish last year. The ass kicking from G.T. set the tone for the rest of the year.

I have to agree that it's SDSU. This may not be their toughest competition, but this is the game that could very well set the tone for the entire season. They lose this game and I don't see us winning too many others, especially since this should be their "gimme" game, if there ever is such a thing. If they can't beat SDSU, then I don't see them beating more than half the teams on the schedule.

I seriously think they can win this one, but if they don't, it will definitely be trouble for the entire season and could mean Weis is through.

week 2 we should know how good this football team is

Agree on San Diego State. It will either cause last year to be a distant memory, or all too familiar.
