Just read a post by one of the mods over at Blue and Gold. The title of the post was "This is a Bad Decision".

One of the reasons stated for this being a bad decision was that the game is on Christmas Eve and it's the second holiest time of the year. I don't know about you guys but I go to church every Sunday and it doesn't bother me that ND is playing on Christmas Eve. They can get up and go to church the next day. What's the difference?

My early prediciton is Hawaii 27-ND 13.

It's the first even matchup we have had since 1995

Ouch. What a wake up call when status of ND football meets an "even" matchup with Hawaii (No offense to Hawaii - they play great football)

Guess that's why they play the game. Ya never know...

The reason we win this ball game is because Brian Smith and Michael Floyd will be back. I knew they were our best offensive and defensive players for most of the season, but having to watch the Irish play without them made me realize just how valuable they were to this team. Can't wait to see them back on the field making big plays. Irish WILL win this game and get the bowl curse off our backs!!!!

Totally agree with this post as without Floyd Tate see's double teams all day. On defense Smith is our punch them in the mouth player who doesn't need CW to motivate him to play hard. Would like to see JA play the majority of the game. Charlie needs to play like they expect to and should win. not look lie a deer in the headlights.

GO Irish!

as much as i don't have confidence in c'dub and his playbook, i think with this much time off and recharging of their so called batteries the boys will play a good hard fought bowl game.

nd is going to win, i can feel it.

the team (and certainly not CW) does not deserve a vacation for going 6-6 against that shit schedule.

How about we beat the shit out of you for the next 4 months and then you tell us if you deserve a vacation after that. How does that sound?

It appears that Hawaii has had trouble establishing a running game all year long, kinda like us. Also, turnovers and penalties has plauged them as well.

ESPN - Hawaii Football - Warriors Schedule - College Football

who better to establish the running game on than a ND defense. syracuse and the rest of our opponents except Navy certainly did it. also, if the coaching staff is having to create new plays in the dirt for america to witness i'm going to puke. charlie better find an answer and get some plays that work. i think having Floyd back should help free up the passing game as Tate won't be doubled. my birthday is dec. 26th and i want nothing more than a ND victory in this game and maybe a little action from the wifey!!!!!

We are 6-6...that's what we are...nothing more.

However, it does get old having to prop up other team's or Bowl ratings...this will be the first time since we played LSU in 1997 that it's an even matchup. (we beat them regular season 1997, then lost to them in the bowl game)
