Knock on Wood

[gkIrish]

Have no fear, the jinx-protected thread is here!

I know we are all scared _____________ will happen this year but don't want to admit it publicly for fear of getting thrown to the dogs.

Well in this hallowed place feel free to let it all out and face your fears. "Knock on Wood" protection for all!

I'm scared to death that our first loss will be to BYU (knock on wood). How about you?

After last season with all the turnovers, I'll be nervous everytime we snap the ball until someone on that team (hopefully in the QB position) gives me confidence.

The reoccurring nighmare I have is our first drive down the field last year.

I'm afraid.

I knock on Wood, that he doesn't rush for 2500 yds this year.

I knock on wood that Manti doesn't behead Denard.

And I knock on wood, we don't go 13-0...

Damn. Plastic. World.

No wood anywhere in sight.

And this boner doesn't technically qualify.

Thank God our beloved Irish are much more ready and less likely to allow voodoo to affect the playing field. And fate leans toward rising from the ashes.

The time is quickly approaching.

Buckle your chin straps...

I know we are all scared that somehow Tommy will find his way back into the starting roll and play like the Turnover Tommy that we know too well.

*I'm just going to continue with this


**Knock on wood**

I'm scared that either Eifert or Teo is going to go down with some injury early in the year and we won't have them for the rest of the season.

I'm not so much scared as I would be extremely upset that we don't pull off a win against MICH, the last 3 years it hasn't been they have been better than us, but that we don't play for 4 quarters, nor do our coaches. I think the conservative approach that Kelly puts on when we have a small lead is not going to help us this year, keep the pressure on BK, score 50+pts a game like you did at Cinci with 10x the talent.

I opened this thread thinking someone was going to be ripping on Cierre for something!

My concern is that ND does exceed expectations for most of the season, going into the USC game with 0 to 1 loss. Then they get d*ck-punched by Kiffin & company. The Irish will finish 10-2 and people will stay call us overrated because we couldn't close against USC. I'll just knock on the 2x4 I have by the front door to keep those damn kids off my lawn.

My fear is we have Golson come out and look like our savior the first 3 games, including a huge preformance in a drubbing of MSU, then he gets hurt bad in the Michigan game and the season goes down the shittter as Hendrix turns out to be ineffective. Knock on wood
