This has been one of the toughest seasons ever. However, seeing those seniors at the end of the game, seeing their teammates and the crowd... awesome. What a class bunch of players. Good job. Good fight. Congrats.

It was great to see Weis like that too. You could tell he was happy for those kids. No wonder we are getting recruits. Go Irish.

I know this was Duke, but I hope this win gives the young guys some confidence and something they can build on.

Congrats to all the seniors, good on the field or not. They have a lot to be proud of regardless of the record.

If we can take this momentum and punish the Cardinal like I know we can then, next season can't come soon enoughh especially with JC a year under his belt along with my boy Duval and sum interesting new wr's we are bringin in this class...Any word on Gerrell? I was at the game and he must have been impressed with JC' darts..

Let's hope that not more than 4 incoming frosh play big minutes next year. That would mean the previous two very good recruiting classes are coming into their own.

I think there logo/symbol/mascot is a tree. I know they've changed it a couple of times because the Cardinals sued in federal court based on discrimination and civil rights violations.

They used to be the Indians, but changed their nickname a long time ago at the request of a American Indian stiudent group from the school so they kept the same colors and adopted one of their colors as their new nickname. That's why they are The Cardnial, not the Cardnials. They do however have some sort of spuce tree as their mascot. I know there were some years were their name was in limbo, so I'm not sure what the situation was then.

Stanford Cardinal refers to the color. Palo Alto (tall tree - seqouias) is where the school is located. The band is responsible for making the tree a "symbol" when they sarcastically used it in a performance while the school was seeking an alternative to "Indians" as the mascot.

I wondered about that myself a few years back, so I looked it up.

I think some of the WRs will see some action along with some of the LB's and quite likely several of the DL.

Yes it has been and I would also like to thank all the posters out there that have been loyal to the team and the site by keeping a level head about things no matter how fustrated you became at times and continuing to make this one of the best ND fan sites on the net. I'm not sure how long I would have lasted on a board that was filled with flamers and trolls. I was really happy for the players, and especially the Seniors that played hard untill the end. Today felt great. Congrats!
