Next year's game has all the makings of the 2005 classic - it will be Clausen's junior year, just as it was for Brady; they will have a star-studded group of players including a Heisman-caliber QB, which they had in Leinart in '05; the game is being played in the 'Bend; NO ONE will really give us a chance to win, BUT we will be unbeaten and have nothing to lose heading into the game; and they VERY likely will, again, be #1 when they arrive in mid-October.

There are so many eery similarities to the '05 contest, I cannot help but believe that this game will be God's gift to us, to make right what once went wrong.

I feel like it is going to be another classic - only THIS time the Irish will be chalking one up in the WIN column come Sunday morning.

Right now, U$C just reloads every year. They have 5star recuits at just about every position. For ND to beat them would take a tremendous effort. ND would almost have to play the perfect game. U$C usually has one bad game (ie Stanford,OSU) which takes them out of the running for a NC. I don't see them taking the Irish lightly. EVERYONE seems to "get up" when they play the Irish

I think UCS big time game to see where they stand will again be against OSU in Cbus next season. Im not a fan of either school, but i hope USC is undefeated when they come into south bend next season.

The Bush Push

The Bush Push

Just thought I would share this little story with you all.

I have a buddy that lives in Cali, and fequently visits the LA area on buisness. So as we all know that is SC country. One day he calls me like 3 times in a row before I finally get to it and he is pissed. He says you are never gonna believe what I just saw. Of course I have no idea what he is so worked up about. He says, "I was just driving behind a public bus with a huge pic. of Bush pushing Lienhart into the endzone in South Bend." So I was like whats the big deal, and he says, "There is an insignia that reads:"You would, if you could! Go Trojans".

All I have to say to those dirty fu**ers at USC is you would and we will beat you fairly, squarley, and with dignity. I am not saying not to take a call, or a no-call, and take advatage of it. What I am saying is don't advertise the fact that Pac 10 refs wouldn't throw the appropriate flag that would cost you the title shot(that they didn't win). I hate USC and I hope they lose every game they play. It gives me almost as much joy to watch SC lose as to watch ND win.

I am one who actually hopes every team we play goes undefeated before we play them. It makes us look more legit, and i know it isnt going to happen, but would make us look badass if we beat them all. i def want USC to be undefeated entering south bend next season.

The only team i hope loses every game next season is Michigan, and even though we dont play em, texas. I hate Michigan, and they led us in all time winning percentage, as does texas. so Lose ya bastards!

A quote from Chris Berman!

A quote from Chris Berman!

"This is why we play the games" Let's not forget the Bush Push game. The Irish was a Junior laden team. We almost won that.
09' will be junior laden we will have the chance. However, two things have to change.
1st, we need to get dominate on the line of scrimmage both offense and defense.
2nd, EAT THE CLOCK we have to keep their O off the field especially Joe McKnight (who is my Heisman pick for 09'). Remember SC's O will be strong in 09'.
With that said we have to quit acting the 90's art shell Oakland Raiders on offense (3 Bombs and punt) It is okay to run conservative plays to rest our D. At times this year we didn't do.
Bottom line, the theme for Next year's team should be "Patience and Consistency". SC's weakness is frustration and panic when they're not ahead by 21pts at the half.
IMHO, remember SB25 Giants vs Bills. Giants held the ball for 40 minutes keeping that K-gun off the field. We'll have to do that in 09'.

they are most likely losing all 11 starters on defense. I think we can beat them, not saying we will but we most definitely can

You understand that the 11 that are leaving there are 33 more ready to play?
