Add Tulsa

Thanks for the news flash guys.

 

[irishff1014]

Lynch would be on the QB so much the announcers would think Lynch was the QB lol

 

[Grahambo]

Syracuse on senior day was the lowest of the low.

 

[Old Man Mike]

As usual, this old man is out of touch with "modern" emotions. I heard this and smiled because if one thinks of it, this Temple president CHOSE Notre Dame to use in his statement. This wasn't about Notre Dame; this was his attempt to brag about HIS team being relevant. Notre Dame still stands in people's minds as a gauge as to whether you are relevant. So, to me, the comment was stupid but flattering.

That's what I was thinking.

Despite what our record is, teams will brag if they beat us.

Nailed it

Say what!? lol. Good luck.

 

[Who'saWildManNow]

Good for them.

In related news, the Temple President was seen riding his bike through campus on his way to talk about the ND game...

 

[irish1958]

Reminds me of the flea and the elephant.

 

[Black Irish]

Watch out for them Owls. As far as assault, have you ever seen where the school is located? I have a friend who did residency there. We will need some streetfighters on our roster then. Double score for tying two threads together?

Yeah, a really good school in a really bad part of Philly. It's like when I worked for Philadelphia Coca-Cola and had to go to the plant in North Philly. You know its a bad neighborhood when they don't even bother naming the streets; its just "A" street, "B" street and so on.

 

[Rudy89]

This made my night.

 

[BobD]

I'm trying to act like I knew Temple had a football team.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

 

[Junkhead]

Temple has a football team? And they are calling out ND? lol

 

[NDPhilly]

Temple sports to Big East from Atlantic 10, MAC - Yahoo! Sports

Uh Oh. Temple joined the Big East. Hold Me.

 

[SoJerseyIrish]

Temple gave PSU all they could handle last year and they have been improving steadily......I would still put my money on ND but their program is on the rise and has been for several years.

 

[BobD]

Even their mascot was shocked to hear they have a football team.

Couldn't agree more. Of all the teams on their schedule, they felt it would mean more to mention ND. Guess we still got some rep anyways!

Tulsa was 10-3 and ranked #24 in the Final Polls, ahead of Florida, West Virginia, and 94 other Division 1 Teams. You guys keep whinning like they were Cal PolySlo. A game ND should have won but hardly on the list of worse losses. No comparison with losing to a 2-8 team with a fired head coach.

 

[BGIF]

IF ND opened 2013 with PSU, CAL, Clemson, Auburn, Tennesse, or Pittsburgh you guys wouldn't think it was a laugher but Temple had a better 2011 than all of them. They lost to 14-10 to a 9-4 PSU and beat Maryland by better than 4 TDs. IF the players take them as lightly as many of you do, Temple's President could have the last laugh.

In Sagarin's Final Rankings for 2011 Temple finished #30 in his Predictor Model. Some teams for comparison:
#20 Georgia
#21 ND
#22 Baylor
#23 KSU
#24 WVU
#25 Nebraksa
#26 USM
#27 VA Tech
#28 Cincy
#29 Florida
#30 TEMPLE
#31 PSU
#32 ASU
#33 Tulsa
#34 Cal
#43 OSU
#45 Clemson
#49 Tennessee
#52 Auburn
#63 Navy
#68 Pittsburgh
#84 BC

Didn't they get kicked out of the Big East for sucking so bad?

 

[returnofthemack]

If the USF president had come out before the 2010 season proclaiming USF would beat ND, I would have laughed. Would you guys really be surprised if we lost to Temple? As BGIF said, they're actually a respectable team nowadays.

USF was a trap game and alot of people saw it as that. Penn state was terrible last year and we handled MD just like they did.
