We win for one simple reason:

Beating Stanford and then winning a bowl game will make expectations for next year SKY HIGH, and we will (presumably) collapse under the weight of those expectations next season during the first month. Rinse, repeat. Time to break that hex.

*Agree with HCTI, it's time to nut up or shut up. Anything can happen Saturday.

I don't have to live in a freaking foxhole with some of you "pansies". You've already conceded victory to the f-ing "Trees" 6 days out? Some of you make me f-ing sick. Do us all a favor... and leave the site for the next week. Your stupidity is no longer needed here. I was under the impression that we were a great fanbase....now, I'm convinced that the major majority here are a bunch of pansies. Let the kids go play the game before the ya-ya sisterhood rules on the game a week out. Grow a set, for the love of God.

Props to you for this thread!

I don't get some fans. They get mad when we lose..when we do win, they're still not happy. Just because we don't win by 20+ points! Would you rather us be 3-8??

You have to see it this way. Playing ND brings out the best in every opponent. Beating ND is their goal year in year out. We are their bowl game. We must understand, a win is a win.

You think you can call us pansies just because you have a sweet mustache?

"You can see the fans that I've recruited, you know who they are. We’ve had one class of fans that are behind me that I’ve had my hand on. The other fans here are coming along. It’s a process. It can’t happen overnight. They’re getting it. They’re making good progress." -Brian Kelly

For those that have given up, thrown the towel in, gone another route, taken the easy way out, jumped off the bandwagon, basically conceding a victory to "Tree"... This is for you.

Can ND beat Stanford... sure.

Is it probable... not so much.

No one has given up or thrown in the the towel. Many just believe SU will field a better team next Saturday. Hopefully the Irish will pull off a great upset. That's why they play the game and that's why we watch it.

Go Irish!!! :)

Great thread; I'm a believer and much happier with the team this year but I can't wait for a shot at redemption on Saturday. Here's an interesting tidbit: Stanford has only played 2 teams that rank in the top 50 in the points against category (Oregon and Cal, both are tied at 40th). Stanford lost one game and won the other by three, respectively. BTW, ND is currently ranked 22nd in the points against category. I know it's not a tell all stat, but it does make the trees' average 45 points scored a game less scary. For me, I think our defense needs to have a big game and hold them to under 20 points. Go Irish...forever
