Manti saying "This is my house" at the beginning of the video gives me goosebumps.

 

[peoriairish]

Hahaha. Did anyone else notice at the end, Kona rubbed Diaco's head and Diaco turned to him and said, don't touch my hair. Baha, he's a good looking man.

One of my favorite recaps this year

I will most certainly bump this.

This video, especially the end (starting at around 9:14) embodies the fight of the fighting Irish.

If you don't get goosebumps from this, then you don't have a soul

According to College Football Live:

The final score of this game was 20-17 and a Taylor touchdown would've won it for them. What a joke.

Woulda shoulda coulda....

[Luckylucci]

Its pretty ****ing annoying actually. Living in Pac12 country they all believe that somehow that was the game winning touchdown. And that Stanford would have won the game on that. Didnt anybody watch the ****ing game. I hear about it all the time.

Stanford Cardinal quarterback Brett Nottingham to transfer - ESPN

STANFORD, Calif. -- Stanford football coach David Shaw has announced that junior quarterback Brett Nottingham plans to transfer.

Shaw said during practice Saturday that Nottingham would be leaving the eighth-ranked Cardinal (11-2), who won the Pac-12 title and will play Big Ten champion Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl on Jan. 1.

Nottingham was a highly touted recruit who was the primary backup last season to Andrew Luck, this year's No. 1 pick in the NFL draft who is now playing for the Indianapolis Colts. Nottingham was beaten out for the starting job during preseason practice by Josh Nunes.

In two games this season, Nottingham completed 5-of-8 passes for 22 yards. He played in six games during 2011 and completed 5 of 8 passes for 78 yards and a touchdown. He was among the top quarterback prospects in the nation out of Monte Vista High School in nearby Danville.

Glazier coaching clinic was in the Chicago area today. Clinic had lots of good speakers. One of the speaker's Ron Crook Stanford TE/tackles coach broke down the Stanford run game schemes and OL/TE blocking techniques. I enjoyed his presentation it was pretty informative.

NW LB coach Randy Bates presentation on proper safe tackling technique and tackling progression drills was probably my favorite presentation I saw today but the Stanford coach was great too.

Sanders JR might get the starting spot too. way to early to speculate considering they are last game on the schedule.

 

[phork]

Being out of football for a year will set this kid back.

 

[STLDomer]

Will be televised by Fox next year, likely a night game. **** YES GUS JOHNSON.

I think this still holds up as one of the best recaps of a game from last year. So much energy, lots of tradition displayed, lots of leadership, just does a great job to display where the program is right now. All that College Gameday footage doesn't hurt either. Show this to some recruits, I bet theres a few that would want to be a part of this too.

Still love the one sign "SEC, this is what a library looks like" lol

Nunes Medical 'Retirement'

 

[STLDomer]

Wow that's freaky, hope he is okay to live a normal life but just cant throw. at least he goes to Stanford. had no idea Nottingham transferred too.

 

[WakeUpEchoes]

Just saw this. Man. Nuts.

Does that mean Hogan takes over or did he graduate?

Edit: Sorry, forgot that Hogan won back the starting job at the end.

That's too bad. Wish him the best.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

Jut reading that makes me cringe. Yikes.

“@agonzalezAP: Josh Nunes had surgery in Feb to reattach pectoralis major tendon with screws. Had completely ripped off bone”

“@agonzalezAP: Nunes was doing bench presses when tendon ripped off, he dropped weights on chest. His father says drop didn't cause injury.”

Yeah, bad injury, but the type (avulsion) isn't all too uncommon.

I'm glad he is getting his Stanford degree though. Good luck to him.

 

[PLACforever]

Should still get a degree from Stanford = win.

I was just about to post this.

Too bad he won't be able to play again. But it sort of reinforces the idea of having good degrees just in case football does not work out. Good to hear that he is heading to grad program.

 

[IrishLion]

Just rewatched ICON since this thread got bumped... someone had a sign that said, "Aaron Lynch, was Gameday at your wedding?"

I had never seen that, and I literally laughed out loud.

 

[RuntheBall]

Just watched the Icon video... I love Tommy Rees

 

[tko]

That ICON video was so money. I'm all jacked up right now. I will say I'm going to miss Davonte Neal. He was going to explode for us this year, damn.

 

[BGIF]

Don't think I've ever read before that a college student was "medically retired
