I wouldn't know. However at a birthday party I was at last night I was only happy to watch as most of my family weeped as PSU rolled up UM.

For the record my opinion is that DickRod is a better head coach. And frankly if they sucked that much against PSU, how would we fare?

Well considering we are one the best teams in the nation, I think pretty good. The loss against the michigan, I mean ourselves and the refs, it wouldnt even of been close. I have no doubt we would beat Penn. ST. and would love for that Bowl game.

DickRod got them up for the start of the season - they played on emotion - would like to see them play IU again, or WMU... Is Deleware St. a lower Div.? Not counting as a win for bowl elegibility? If so, they need 2 wins to qualify... Motor City Bowl?

Illinois - Purdue - Wisconson - OSU???????????

Probably my own rule - because in modern time I have no recollection of ND playing a lower division team.

Better Coach!! I love that meltdown he had losing to Pitt when he was coaching WVU.. He's a 9 to 10 win coach. He couldn't get WVU to a national title game in a weaker conference. Who says he's going to do it at scUM? So they fire a 9 to 10 win coach in Loydd Carr for another coach whose going to bring you the same record..

Sorry man, but we are NOT one of the best teams in the nation. If you are one of the best teams in the nation, you don't struggle to win every single one of your games except for one, and you don't lose 2 of them. I mean, it's one thing to struggle a couple of games, but it's also nice to blow a team out.

I believe the needle is pointing up, I believe the offense is elite and will absolutely blow up once Floyd returns, and I believe we have the top QB in the nation. HOWEVER, the top teams in the nation don't make bad to mediocre QBs look like All Americans, and they don't let receivers run around wide open all game, especially on 4th and super-long.

Sorry dude, we are a top 20 team, but until we start to consistently defend, we are in now way shape or form one of the TOP teams in the country. And believe me, I LOVE THIS TEAM (but let's keep it real).

And CTF, jason makes a great point. Look at the ND boards...we won and people still want CW fired. We are no different than Michigan fans, if not worse, sadly.

(But it still is fun to watch them bitch and complain!!!)

Have fun talking smack at school!

We are much the same with Weis.

It's much more ridiculous for UM fans because it's R-Rod's second season.

We are not one of the best teams in the nation. With Floyd in the lineup, we are one of the best offenses in the nation. I have to agree with another poster. Shinskie was 1-12 for 4 yds against VaTech. That's what one of the best teams in the nation does to a rookie QB who hasn't played in 7 years!!! ND? Oh, we let him throw for close to 300 yds. We let a WR wide-ass open on 4th and 17 who had been killing us all day. We are Top 25 material. I don't think we're close to being a Top 10 team yet. This defense needs about 1-2 more years and a few more top tier DBs.

Not the best argument. ND beat MSU and Michigan lost to them so you can't say that just because Michigan did well/badly against one team that ND would do even worse. In 2006 and 2007 we beat teams that beat USC. Didn't make us better.

Michigan fans are quickly losing their Forcier obsession.

He's thrown for a combined 234 yards against teams with a real defense.

Michigan fans: "He outplayed Clausen and beat him head to head. That automatically makes him better."

Makes sense to me. I don't recall Michigan's defense opening up like the Red Sea though. I hate that Michael Floyd got hurt that game. Forcier is good. He's not Clausen. Not even close.

Don't be so negative bro! Wait wtf is going on here. I think you and I are meeting in the middle, right where everyone else should be.

PS: You should go read the junk on mgoblog.com. Now that is some funny stuff. Makes this board look like a Heisman candidate.

HArrison Smith, Darrwn Walls, Sergio Brown, Gary Gray, Robert Blanton

HArrison Smith, Darrwn Walls, Sergio Brown, Gary Gray, Robert Blanton

These guys suck. None worse than Walls, then H. Smith. If I didn't know better I'd say they don't even practice all week. They have no game knowledge. It is impossible that they are watching film. They do not recognize shit, man. The thing is they are not just bad they are actually getting worse. The bottom line is we do not have the athletes at DB to compete. With Miami Loosing, I would like to see them on New Years day. I think Jacoy Harris is over rated and the ball he throws has got interception written all over it. But first we must get through the remainder of our cardiac evals called a football season.


Slump ? I ain't in no slump. I just ain't hittin.

Same here. Now that the train is off the track I hope it derails fully. I was hoping they would win out and it would make NDs schedule that much better, but heh, they still need 1 game to lock up a bowl game. Mahaha.
