Stanford is starting to wear down... Darius is finding it easier and easier to run out there.

24-3... we're depleted by injuries on both sides of the ball, and we're STILL firmly in-control of this game.

No worries whatsoever.

Tigers 3, Yankees 0, Tigers still batting in the bottom of the second. Two homers so far this inning.

It just occurred to me... I think I can speak for a lot of ND fans that we wanted a blow-out today, which is why it feels disappointing that we're "only" up 24-3 after 3 quarters.

In contrast, I think Charlie wanted a win. He's played a conservative, solid game-plan today on both sides of the ball. Not a lot of risks, lots of low-yardage high-percentage plays.

...and crud, halfback-pass for a touchdown. How many times are we gonna give THAT up this year?

Sounds like he's doing his best OyDDD Carr impersonation...

I'm not so sure that's a bad thing today. We have some key injuries, but we're up against a team that has been rendered completely impotent by injuries of their own.

Play it safe, grind it out, don't go for style points, and keep a team that is HUNGRY for an upset from even getting close to one. 24-10 in the 4th quarter. I'd say it's working...

I thought down 21 with less than 9 minutes Harris would abandon the run.

By the way, Maison, don't you have a game to watch? ;)

Michigan 14, Sparty 0; Henne tosses a 41-yarder to Manningham and Jonelle blows it by not throwing the red flag on Michigan's first TD.

Tigers 4, Yankees Nothing, Tigers up in the bottom of the 4th. Jeremy Bonderman has thrown a perfect game through 4. Damn, if he gets into the late innings with a no-no, I might have to watch that.
