Especially hard b/c this team is winning the way ND fans (most anyway) want to win. Running the ball and playing solid team defense. They play the right way - tough, clean, hustling every play through the whistle. The only time they have let their foot off of the gas the entire season was the last fifteen minutes or so against Wake, and after whipping USC's ass, beating NC State and blowing Wake out in the first half, it's forgivable. Even in the loss to Georgia, they played hard. Their will to win was evident - just came up a bit short. They are earning wins and imposing their will. I hope they do the same and completely blow the doors off of Miami.

It remains to this day, the recipe for success. Bask in it brother!

I always did hate Miami, especially during the prick-head Jimmie Johnson years, but they are still only #3 on my hate list ... michigan, U$C and then miami (aka the Convicts)! Regardless, damn I hope the Irish kicks #3's ass big time tomorrow! Go Irish!!! BTW, muck fichigan!

Yes, this is the team I've been dreaming of for years. This is a hard and physical football team that seeks to dominate and impose their will on teams. I enjoy watching other teams break.

Am I the only one that does not hate the turnover chain? I don’t want to see it against us but it’s pretty cool. Last week when they threw it around that kid’s head while he was writing on the white board and turned it around to say “Ball Game” after his game sealing pick... that is some high level shit talking.

I like it, it's pretty funny. Let the kids have some fun, you old cantankerous bastards!

Lost in all this is the fact that the chain is actually 10k gold. That's a lot of gold; that chain is not a small item. Gold plated?

Damn! This truly shows Elko’s impact. +12 and then resulting in 108 points? GTFOH! That’s incredible!

I too found that amazing and I knew ND did a great job of scoring off of TO's. But the only stat that you can give Elko full credit for is the Total Takeaways. He gets half credit for +/- then all the rest goes to the offense.

I've had two friends this week try to stump me on ND turnover questions because they were shocked at how few Int's Wimbush has and how few lost fumbles the team has. The Offense from Kelly to Long to Denson to Alexander to Wimbush and the skill positions deserve a lot of credit. They aren't turning the ball over and when Elko's D gives them a turnover, they see red and finish. The 108 pts off of just 19 TO's blew me away too. I bet there are some very telling advanced stats that predict the winning percentage of a team that scores 10 points off of turnovers in a game... ND AVERAGES 10+ ppg off of turnovers. I wish I had the data parsed per game.

Those points are generated by the offense. We need to give props to Long and Co. The efficiency of offense has been amazing.

ETA- Crusader always faster than me. :)

No doubt, they definitely feed off of each other though. Long deserves a lot of credit as well. Isn’t this the highest scoring ND team in history? At least, to this point.

This is a lot of fun, to hate Miami like this again. I hated that team in its heyday, hated Jimmy Johnson and all of their players. I hope we curb stomp them tonight. In embarrassing fashion. By running the ball straight down their throats. I hope that turnover chain chokes someone.

I liked "Notre Dame... More Like Notre Lame... #BoomRoasted."

ESPN had to change camera angles when they picked up "Brian Kelly sUcks e-Richt dick."
