Sports Illustrated's ND Preview

[edgesofsanity]

First team preview outside of the top 25 - so much for our stated irrelevancy. Brief summary of the state of the team, with schedule synopsis. They're calling for 8-9 wins.

Projected starters is a bit weak as I doubt Theo is not a starter at WR, Hughes is the 4th RB not 2nd, Hendrix not 2nd QB, and Banks is off the team...besides that, im being picky, good story

Weak journalism.

Someone on this board could've written a more informed article in about 5 minutes. That SI writer gets a D- in my book.

 

[GreatGolson]

well D- for the writing, but ill give him an B+ for the prediction, even though he doesnt know WHY they will win 8 or 9

SI (well, Mandel) also calling for 3 unranked ND opponents to be BCS sleepers this year - BC, Navy, and Purdue. Don't get me wrong, I see his points - but Purdue going to a BCS game?

Weak journalism.

Well, it is "Snorts Inebriated"... low expectations are warranted.

LOL... nicely done.

BTW, an "hour N. of Toronto wouldn't be Owen Sound, would it?

I was there on bidnezz once for a couple days, back in the mists of time when I traveled more than I do now.

Either there or Orangeville, which is where I ended up while trying to drop off the car rental at YYZ (it's easy to get turned around while attempting to navigate the maze). :banghead2
