I should note that the award DOES say more about the man than the school, but Notre Dame doesn't hurt the qualities of the exceptional man who attends here. FWIW: there are other schools with more than one candidate this year (Clemson, Utah State, and Mississippi State each have two; Stanford...

Two ND guys makes us proud.

In the bizarro world we live in (well, some live there), whack like this actually helps us. It shows that if some idiot in football wanted a QB badly, the correct choice would be OUR QB. Thinking backwards in time, how far back must we go for the QB-of-choice to be our QB?

Hate writing this: Closer and closer to the sport becoming prohibitive to engage in for anyone with a long term life view. Solution? None of course. Direction? Massively higher salaries for anyone playing pro is one option --- the gladiatorial games solution. The other solution is that only...

That BYU thing was the most undeserved "championship" in Football history. There might have been 20 better teams.

Love the optimism, but ... There's a REAL chance now that the best looking team in the nation is in a coin flip. NOTHING has really gone right for us today. Dammit. And two other things: a. FAN betting opinions have right around Zero relevance to the Committee, unless THEY are a bunch of...

Again ... Go, Tommy. In my seeing, he comes darn close to maxing out what he has to work with, is supremely loyal and serious on all his jobs, and everyone is not perfect nor a Hall of Fame genius. But this guy is a hard worker who puts his shoulder to the wheel on everything he does. He...

Tommy Rees: a guy who helped Notre Dame football. Cheering FOR him. Go and live a good life, old warrior.

Threat/counterthreat ... playing the legal game. Not a surprise.

"Fan base unhappy..." lol

Standing applause for all our ex-guys.

I get the dilemma. It has actually gotten worse here near the end. Since Love is getting true Heisman consideration, it is obvious to me that Freeman and Denbrock have planned to give him the best shot at getting it -- consequently reducing even Price's carries.

The ESPN ratings show is full of anti-ND people. But I found it "interesting" that after all the innuendo they threw out vs Notre Dame and how we could be passed and left out, when they finally (near the end) had the Syracuse game flash through their heads, they talked eye-test and that nobody...

How anyone could watch him last season and not realize that he's a starter on basically every team in the country but ours, boggles my mind. So, what happened this year? My opinion: Aneyas played so much last season because Price was not an intelligent blocker. Aneyas was brilliant at reading...

We good. Even with the sometimes maligned line. (which doesn't deserve it.)

We don't have good data. Statistics say that teams will suffer injuries in a statistical spread (Bell-shaped curve) with some luckier and some not. Then overlay that with some sets of athletes facing superior physical specimens both in games and practices (that shifts the curve to the worse for...

Not important, I guess, but Miami beat this same Syracuse roster 38-10. Solid win, but .... not 70-0. My bias says we're better.

Yes. But the real point that I was trying to make is that Coach Rudolph deserves a lot of credit. He manages to have his entire room of athletes ready to play. Pretty amazing.

A small observation: because we have the number of OLinemen unavailable as we do, when we went to entirely second teamers in the second half, it was tough on Coach Rudolph to piece together a second string. What he did was to field Prescod at LT, Black at LG, Terek at Center, Devin Houstan (!)...

Strange game. USC surprisingly non-physical and not tall either. Very dependent upon freshman ace and one other player. Several of them shook by Hannah AND Cass and KK's physicality/hustle. Therefore there was no bullying of us by them. Translation: they (USC) can be made "soft" (note relatively...
