YES YES YES!!!!!!

This is big time. I'm pumped.

Plus Miami is in shambles right now with there coaching changes and what not. Its gonna be heard for them to prepare.

Dangerous opponent. All of this momentum to lose to a team with a lame duck assistant coach in charge would not be good.

Great rivalry game, though. Tired of worrying about who we play. Line us up with Oregon for all I care. The days of not belonging are over.

Go Irish.

Is ND going to be on the East or West sideline? I already bought a ticket for the East side (Section 22 - I'm not complaining) but I'm just curious if I'll be sitting with a ton of Miami fans.

Little surprised to see all the Seantrel Henderson smack on here, not just this thread but the other bowl threads on IE. Was ND really that close to getting SH? As I recall it was SC, OSU & Miami as the most serious contenders for him...am I wrong?

The game will be on CBS. I just watched some of the 1989 ND v Miami game aired by CBS, on youtube. *its up in its entirety* This should definitely have a throwback feel to it.

I don't think we had much of a shot at all. I'm just glad he's not at U$C.

True that, I often wonder about guys that de-commit from ND and chose other universities, if they regret their decision at all. I was wondering yesterday if Gio Bernard (spelling?) has regretted his change of mind since he chose UNC with all the allegations against them.

Not to rain on the convict parade, but if there was one thing Randy Shannon did well it was reforming the culture at Miami.

I'll quote myself again.

I hope Seantrel's Dad's rap career sucks balls too


Here's a lil story bout my son Sean-trel...
He loves playin football but i'm ringing the bell...

It's kinda sad that I live through my son...
But I'm a 40+ rapper and yeah I got me a gun!!!
So all you haters, you can suck my "c**k"
Cuz if my career don't work we be transferr'n a lot!

Seantral Henderson couldn't even pass admission standards. Couldn't have gone to ND. I am looking forward to this game. Hoping this would be the matchup all along. If....When ND wins, it will help in recruiting BIG time. Think Buerlein will do the game?

Sounds like something you'd hear in the 80's.

Agree. Also, a lot can happen when you've got almost a month to prepare too.

I remember MSU playing Florida about 10 years ago or so in a bowl game that they had no chance winning according to the experts. Saban had left for LSU, lame duck coach, alleged gap in talent, program in turmoil = MSU win.

I've got faith in ND though.

Is anyone else not big on the "catholics vs. convicts" thing? Back when "The U" was full of actual criminals, thugs and otherwise bad people... it made sense. But applying the same label to a bunch of kids who seem to be doing everything right doesn't feel right to me and I think reflects poorly on our fan base.

Just my personal, humble opinion on the matter.

I agree, it's a misnomer.
