I base my prediction on last years game.

Notre Dame Fighting Irish vs. Michigan Wolverines - Box Score - September 10, 2011 - ESPN

In case you forgot. UM scored 28 points in the 4Q. 5 turnovers by us. 300 yards passing, 200 yards rushing.

They lost their best receiver. They lost their 2 best DL in Martin and VanBergen. Countess is out. Denard had 108 yards rushing, the other RBs? Not so much. Hemingway is gone, he of 178 yards receiving.

We lost Floyd, our secondary is thin but capable. Our DL is in full on beast mode. Also lost Gary Gray, which is addition by subtraction.

UM won last year because ND allowed them to win. The turn overs (Mostly Rees) killed us. There won't be that many this year, if at all.

If you don't see this as anything but a blow out, especially what Alabama, Air Force and to a lesser extent UMass has done to them, then you have no faith.

Golson will give another pedestrian and efficient effort only because the run is going to gash the hell out of the UM line and LBs.

Mattison was asked if practising against Denard helps prepare for Golson and he agreed. Only difference is, imo, that Golson can actually pass and DRob arm punts.

We are going to roll and Kelly is not going to take the foot off the gas this time.

You talked me into it. I'll take ND giving up 5.5 points and the under (ground heavy attack and holding Michigan's score down).

I want trying to lecture you. I was just giving you the other side of the argument. I stayed away from the areas you got in trouble in. I don't know what happened or who was right. When i post something i am not trying to dig at you because i don't know anything about your past other than something happened and you started a thread that said you wouldn't posting anymore. Were you right? Were you wrong?i don't know i stayed away from it. Don't take anything a say personal.

You all should know I don't take anything seriously here. All I am saying is people lecturing me, phork, Mr. Negative about being real, the irony is oozing.
 

GO IRISH!!!

I had oozing irony once after a trip to Thailand. The doctor gave me a shot and it cleared right up.

Betting on your team to win is hexing your team. It's the first rule of gambling. It has nothing to do with "believing in your team", a certain amount of football is luck.

I believe in karma, and I wont allow my bet on my team (again, the first rule of gambling is to never bet on teams you root for) to make the ball bounce the wrong way.

Just my opinion...

I've won boatloads betting for and against ND. I like betting on my teams because I know more about them than anyone else. You just have to stay objective. That being said, I bet a lot on ND last year at scUM and we all know what happened

I didn't know where you were going with it. I don't know much about you on this board other than you have been banned because of trouble. If you are Mr. Negative then I can see what you are saying.

Me too. Although it should be noted I'm not picking Michigan to win, per se. I'm picking the game to be close.

While on the subject, interesting conversation I had with my girlfriend last night... how much would you pay for an Irish victory? Like if a genie popped out of a bottle and said "I'll guarantee victory For X amount of dollars" what's the highest amount you would be willing to give up? She said $100... basically double face value of her ticket... because it would be more fun and we'd have more fun after the game.

I told her I'd pay $100 just to have the game reffed fairly, much less a victory. I said I'd probably cut a check for 5 grand if given the chance... to which she said "we could go to Italy for 2 weeks on 5 grand!"... and I then had to try to justify why I'd get more utility from a program defining victory over Michigan than a vacation. She now thinks I'm certifiable, but w/e.

Key question. Would you be able to then bet the game after securing such a guarantee? Makes a huge difference in the utility analysis.

I'm already in a bunch of $$$ on this game, so I just want to enjoy it at no additional cost. Now USC, I'd be willing to throw in a few $K to lock that one down. Their fans need to STFU

Right next to Conflation H at the pharmacy.

Lax - don't argue football utility with women, just accept they are not men. Also be thankful that she did not translate those dollars to shoes. Italy trips are a much more tollerable counter to your query.

Neal returns a punt for a TD. We gash them on the ground with over 175 yards, and Chris Brown makes a big play. We win by more than 7 (though it may get exaggerated late- aka when Tuitt lays one on Denard and Teo returns it for a TD).
