[GO IRISH!!!]

I was SHOCKED to see ND so far down the "others receiving votes" list. I wasn't certain they would be ranked, but I thought they would at least be sniffing the Top 25.

we will have to beat usc...its clear ND is not getting the benefit of the doubt. ppl (voters) dont believe that Clausen is for real...yet. they think ND is going to drop 'a syracuse' again. we still have some payback for BC and PITT, and Stanford no doubt thinks they have a shot at beating us.

The polls don't mean shit, win and everything will take care of itself! Go Irish!

As much as I can't stand it, Mark May does have a point.

ND has not beaten a team with a winning record yet. Beat 'SC, and the haters will have no more excuses.
