Stewart Mandel spends his mailbag column this week defending Notre Dame's ranking, as compared to Ohio State, Virginia Tech, and Oregon. It's not that often that ND gets defended by a columnist, enjoy it while you can. Apparently, OSU fans are REALLY pissed...which warms my heart. Imagine how upset they'll be if they beat Michigan this weekend and ND walks over Syracuse.

This may be the best thing I've read in weeks. The crying from anOSU fans around here is quite loud. I'm thinkng of stocking up on blue and gold towels so they have something to wipe their tears.

They're the only fans that can bring me to root for the skunkbears.

It is nice to have a writer on our side. Let's settle this damn thing and just play O$U in a bowl game this year. Oh, i forgot, they lose to scUM this weekend.

Hey Coach Tressel, It's been a long time since you gave away a car to player. Now seems like a good time.

I hope Ohio State wins and gets a Fiesta bid.

ND can beat them. They won't score 42, but they'll be able to play with them on both sides of the ball.

your damn right we can beat them, and i would love to get the chance to play these punks.

Hey Indy....does this mean your heart is pumping piss for tO$U?????

Kudos on the quick post. You barely beat me to it.

GOD, do I WANT TO play (F the 't') O$U....

Very Good Read. This Is What Football Is All About. Making Arguments That My Team Is Better Than Your Team. I Love It. We'd Have Nothing To Talk About Between Games If Not For This Rubbish. I Can't Get Enough Of This Stuff.

If i'm not mistaken, isn't he an alum? Not too suprising he'd be defending the alma matter.

 

[scooper]

I think he went to Northwestern.

I know someone on their staff is an alum who wrote a good article about ND not too long ago. Forget who if its not him then.

I know the article you're talking about. But I don't think it was Mandel. Maybe it was, but I don't think so. The article was great, though.

I think that guy's last name was Walters. He wrote the article on the ND-Mich game. It was a three part article. He's written a couple others about the Irish as well.
