</PRE>

 

[PADOMERNUT]

About what I expected. I actually think we will play them tougher than most expect, but USC still wins easily.

USC 38
ND 17

 

[ARALOU]

Notre Dame-27 USC-24. Walker two field goals. One from 45 with less than two minutes to go. Defense holds on. Pete Carroll is forced out and has to become our OC or whatever his forte' is. We hire Meyer as offensive consultant. Buddy Ryan decides to help consult the defense. Lou comes in on game day for inspiration. And oh, wait a minute ,,sorry dozed off there.

 

[NDOM]

Southern Cal 52
Notre Dame 7

 

[ARALOU]

DANG! Should'nt you have like a Matt Leinart or O.J. Simpson avatar or something? Just kidding man. Don't go O.J. om me ok? Been drinking tonight.

 

[scoutgod]

I predict that Kellen Winslow Jr will still be an overrated douchebag. Just like he was in high school

 

[NDOM]

Yeah well I predict that they are gonna keep playing those FUCKING ANNOYING GEICO COMMERCIAL WITH THE CAVEMEN OVER AND OVER UNTIL I GO APE SHIT ON A BROTHA!

 

[wallym]

You guys are the reason I read this board late at night...friggin' hilarous!

In all seriousness, 45-12 sounds about right. Although, I could easily predict 62-6 with 2 field goals. I could also predict that with CW job on the line, our pride hurting desperately, and with the athletes we have, we beat the spread (which is 30 by the way).

Damn it I want to believe, and with a win over NC, Pitt, and Syracuse I would be geeked up about this game. Just don't care anymore...anyone watch our hoops team, their pretty good

 

[tankjeep]

well, i'd love to be optimistic, but i just don't get that warm n fuzzy feeling about this game:

USC 55
ND 10

 

[phork]

59-0 sounds about right to me. Petey McPete is going to pour it on for BCS style points.

 

[GoIrish41]

USC may put up 100 on ND, and I think it is fairly obvious that ND's inept offense won't score a point.

 

[Catsudon]

two field goals for us, lots of tds for them, sadly

USC 42
ND 6

 

[WaveDomer]

Yeah well I predict that they are gonna keep playing those FUCKING ANNOYING GEICO COMMERCIAL WITH THE CAVEMEN OVER AND OVER UNTIL I GO APE SHIT ON A BROTHA!

I heard a marketing guy once who said that while everyone knows those commercials, nobody has GEICO as an agent.

 

[GO IRISH!!!]

Fight in the tunnel before the game gets Malaluga, Matthews, and Sanchez ejected. Pat Kuntz emerges from the tunnel covered in blood carrying Tommy Trojan's servered head.

Despite the loss of three top SC players, offense still struggles, but defense keeps us in it. Clausen goes down with an injury late in the fourth. Not wanting to waste any of Crist's eligibility, Montana is put in and leads the team down the field for a last second, game winning score. Times Sunday headline: "ND Upsets SC with Montana at the Helm!" That would be sweeeeeeet!

 

[NDinL.A.]

I heard a marketing guy once who said that while everyone knows those commercials, nobody has GEICO as an agent.

Probably jealous because those commercials are some of the best on TV (sorry NDOM; they're funny as hell!!!)...

 

[NDinL.A.]

Prediction????

Painnnnnnnnnnn...

 

[mick2]

since my predictions obviously dont mean a thing and so far this season they have been the kiss of death, im gonna stay away from predicting this one i just think it will be a lot closer than what everyone thinks.

 

[Easton Pa ND Fan]

I hope so, but...

ND is just one dimensional on offense. The Irish have a
'fair' passing game, but USC is rated 'excellent' in pass
defense. No running game for the Domers, it simply doesn't
exist...

[tripsdad]

Sorry for my pessimism, but based on the ND offensive and defensive line play I've seen so far:

SC offense scores 2 TDs per quarter.
SC defense scores 1 TD per half.
Jimmy throws an unheard-of 7 interceptions while being sacked 8 times.

SC 70, ND 0

 

[Irishkid23]

Pete Carroll hates Weis and he now has the opportunity to drive a nail in his coffin.

ND can't run and can't penetrate on D. We couldn't score on BC and SC has a better defense. I hate to say this, but SC big.

 

[NDOM]

I honestly dont think we are even going to get past midfield. Usc is going to destroy us with great fashion. I'm only watching tonight just see the look on Charlies face when Usc is up 31-0 at halftime. Clausen if I were you I wouldnt even dress cuz you are about to experience major blitzes. You WILL be sacked at least 10 times and you WILL throw at least 5 interceptions. Oh and you WILL not start next year. And Charlie Weis WILL be fired on sunday and be replaced by....???? to be continued.

 

[JeremyND07]

ND hangs with them in the first half only to give us all false hope 17-10...final score 48-13

 

[NDFLA]

ND hangs with them in the first half only to give us all false hope 17-10...final score 48-13

That seems very reasonable. Then again, maybe JC has the game of his life against his old buddies, only throws 3 INTS, and we lose 48-20.

 

[GO IRISH!!!]

There are so many vitriolic responses on here, I cut back my posting considerably this week. Even with all the negativity and with all the rumors and conjecture flying around, I am still pretty excited for today's game. After all, I still get to watch the Fighting Irish play. I am holding out the last bit of hope I have that there is still some magic left and we see something amazing today, but I am well aware I will probably have to go to work on Monday and take a huge truckload of shit from my SC coworkers. I am praying we show up today.

I have a tough time believing all the Urban Meyer, this coach or that coach, speculation. Everyone seems to have a friend "in the know", but, when it comes down to it, the boys still have to strap on the pads and go out there and hit someone. I hope they play like they have nothing to lose.

This is a game. And it is a game played by an amazing team we all love dearly. I will continue to love ND no matter who is coaching or who is playing because I have endured too many years to give up now.

Go Irish!!! Give 'em hell!!!!

 

[IrishChris209]

34 Irish 30 Usc just call me a dreamer...

 

[ACamp1900]

The caveman ads are the greatest!!! lol

Sorry but I picked ND for my pickem... If I am gonna win that contest I am NOT gonna do it picking 'them' to beat ND...


besides we do have what it takes on the right night to beat them I honestly believe that... it'll just take the perfect game we haven't played in years.................

 

[88rice9]

We have a team that has to be distracted by their coaches job insecurity. We are playing against a team that needs to win by a big margin so that they have a chance to make the championship game. This could get really ugly. USC 70 ND 0

 

[NDOM]

Score by quarters:

Southern Cal 14 10 17 17
Notre Dame 0 0 0 6

Final score:
Southern Cal 58
Notre Dame 6
