I know i met a guy a bagpipe practice thats a ND fan so we have been talking about it all week... We did look good in that game and it just sucks we lost it.. I really can't wait to see the crowd this yr for this game.. I know the fans will be going crazy we need to get the win and rush the field.

I was at the game and saw the replay last night. Does anyone else think Roundtree never had possession on the game winning catch? It still makes me think of Calvin Johnson vs. Bears everytime I see it.

It is a sick joke that we lost that game. Michigan is not good. Watching the first quarter of the game last night only drove that point home (I couldn't watch anymore than that).

Will take a look.. I tell you one thing for a qb to make wrs run back to the ball was the only way they caught passes. So many times we were to far back to block it.

I'm trying to figure out what three games were better? The only game that I enjoyed more as a football fan, not a Domer, was the LSU vs. Bama game.

Trinity, it makes me feel better that this years game is at the top of your list bro!

Watched it myself... We dominated that game.

If three simple things are fixed or better, we win by double digits:
1) Rees was fixated on Floyd, caused two INTs in the first half
2) Corners never found the ball. The First TD to Hemmingway was ugly to watch, the last TD was ugly to watch.
3) And then this of course

The better team did not win that day...

Fourth best game from 2011 and the most likely to make me dry heave by merely mentioning of it.

I think he had possession, but if they ruled that he didn't, I wonder what they would have done. With the PI call, they would have had it on the 1 with :02 left. Part of me thinks they would have tried to punch it in. One of about 200 things that happened in that game that could have gone either way, but went against us. I can't believe that could happen again.

Michigan started off not good because Michigan started off trying to go from under center 90% of the time, after the ND game Michigan moved to the shotgun (which it shouldn't move from while Robinson is playing).

...this game...oh the agony...sickening.

The deal is, even with TOs, we shouldn't have lost this. Robinson can throw an option route under 15 yards OK, but my god...had you walked into the room and just saw the camera angle on the long balls he threw, youd have thought it was a punt...the trajectory, and overall wobbly-a$$edness (is that a word) ...dead giveaway for a punt.

No excuses...HS d-backs make those plays. I can see getting roasted 1 time for the entire secondary like that...not 5 times. Our guys were in the play, and failed horrendously on fundamental D-back skills, get your effin head turned around and fight for the ball.

We did great at making it look like guys were'nt open, but when the guy heaves it up anyway...you can't stay in "coverage" mode...you gotta make a play on the ball...and good hell, I had time to get on a plane, suit up, and run my fat a$$ out there to make a play on those balls...inconceivable our dbacks let this happen.

still pissed...

I started watching the ESPNU replay and stopped when I realized I had torn a sofa pillow in half. Awful game. It makes me physically ill to think about that 4th quarter. Absolutely disgusting.

Word on the street is that scUM is planning on retiring Gary Gray's jersey because of that game. Any truth to this?

Time to give it right back. It is essential to beat Msu to ensure our team is as fired up as possible for the game

The most upset I've been after a game was probably the bush push, but I was easily the most angry after this one. I've been at ND for three years, and I've had to watch THOSE 3 ND/Michigan games... If next year's goes the same way, I'm not sure if I'll get mad again or just end up weeping quietly in the corner.

I think I can bear the USC-ND game because it was a legitimately great game with two great teams fairly matched and going back and forth. The reason the scUM games irritate me so much is that ND usually spends the first 3 quarters showing why they're the better team and then crap themselves in the 4th.
