Michigan at Notre Dame.

Notre Dame managed an extremely meager 11 yards rushing against BYU (!), lost the TOP by seven minutes, gave up a ton of sacks.

Michigan will bring an adequate rushing game to South Bend, and the number 8 rushing defense against a ground game that only Kent State is worse than.

Somehow Notre Dame, with everything going for it, has managed to totally suck and get a bunch of players with no fundamentals whatsoever on either side of the ball. Normally with a powerful team coming in, overmatched by athletes and down on your luck you would turn to the ground game as an equalizer, but that is the emptiest part of the Notre Dame package.

The only good news v. BYU is the Domers didn't throw an interception. That will change this week.

Michigan will dominate the line of scrimmage, totally shut down the ND offense, score at will from everywhere on the field and possibly put up a defensive AND special teams score. ND is that poor in all aspects of the game.

I'm guessing Michigan by 28... at least, and only because they'll probably stop throwing at all in the third quarter and be content with 6 yards a carry or so, but it could be a name your score type of game.

Put your life savings on Notre Dame. Nostradumbass has spoken.

I've learned never to bet against ND...and that just makes me hate them even worse...

Cletus you are truly a moron if you would bet even your bubble gum card collection on Notre Dame and get 14 points. They are one of the worst Division 1A teams out there, and Willingham isn't Santa Claus.

I think the title should have been :Ass Kissing of the Week"

This is for anybody that thinks Notre Dame can hang with Michigan for more than three minutes:

Sad really, this is one of the games I enjoy watching every year.

I can see Michigan rolling over ND, but somehow the fisheaters find a way to stay in a game or pull an upset and that wouldn't completely surprise me either.

Getting back to the title of this topic, I believe if you look up I35 North you might see the Sooners roll up a ton of points on cougar high.

I believe the line is 9 and its in SouthBend. Pass me some of the crack rock, b/c ND will hang with UM and their freshman QB.

Did ANY of you idiots PICK Notre Dame to win this game? Nobody thought they would win.

Well, it turned out from what I saw (the A&M game was on at the same time), the Domers DID get back to basic football, and Michigan played tentative.

Congratulations to anybody that actually PICKED Notre Dame to win this game; the rest of you are full of sh ^t, especially that f@ggot AdamB and the rest of you sip pansys.

I laughed.

Nostradumbass is a Dilbert ripoff. Sips are nothing if not unoriginal.

Is Ryan Grant back this week?

They need him to have any kind of chance to move the ball.

I don't know... it was all coachspeak on Tuesday re: Grant

Q. Ryan Grant is a guy that talks that way, he always seems to have a lot of confidence in himself and the team, how much difference do you have like he could have played Saturday night and did you give any thought to putting him in after the game was going on?

COACH WILLINGHAM: The latter part of that, no, I did not give any consideration to put him in. Physically -- it was not the right time for him, and it probably would have adversely affected the rest of the season, and we don't want to do that.

Do we miss or did we miss his experience and his ability? We do. But I still don't think that was the result of us losing a football game. It's still very much a team game. But Ryan will hopefully, when he returns, add something very positive to our group. He's an experienced runner, he's an experienced guy in the system in, understanding protection through the block, and he does have a physical presence.

As far as Michigan's freshman QB, his rating is 127.2 (41), superior to Brady Quinn's 109.7 (59).

Damn, I thought this thread would be about the anm game last week.

Grant will be back but it won't matter. The Irish secondary is going to get schooled repeatedly by the wolverine receivers.

schooled dead poets style

what time is the game?

ND will cover.




"Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall."

Michigan 34
Notre Dame 13

Michigan 49

ND 6

what an ass-kicking of the week! 9-0 UM at half! Thats almost like leading a Mountain West Team 10-0 at half at Kyle.

I bet ND to cover, they got better as the game progresseed, hopfully they can come out inspired and keep UM from pulling away.

Now 12-7 UM in the 4th. Yeah, what a thrashing.

Check that. 14-12 ND in the 4th.

Is there a more sure-fire prediction formula than the opposite of what Brandi says??

14-12 Notre Dame.

Ouch.

Blocked punt. Ball inside the five for the domers.

21-12 Touchdown Jesus.

Brandi's expertise has gotten to the point where it isn't as much funny as it is sad.

This is too hilarious! Brandy has a terminal case of foot-in-mouth disease. ttt

Any gambling addicts on this board know a sure thing when they see one.

I've been on ND since way before BI mentioned it, but this was a nice clinching.

Iron, are you ever right about anything?

No way... their offensive coordinator is lost, the gameplan will likely consist of a bunch of five yard dinks to the TE, the DC hates the OC because he's a PAC 10 dumbass that can't control the clock, even the domer OL coach thinks the coordinator is an idiot.

If the domers don't get back to basic football FAST, you'll be able to smoke rock with the whole staff in the offseason, once they're fired.

Once Brandi responded to me with this after I said ND would stay within the spread, I parlayed this bet. Now I need Florida Atlantic vs. UNT tonight.

Brandi, keep bringing the Ass kicking off the weeks, and I will keep betting the other way!

Every time this jack-ass goes out on a limb it snaps. The only thing he has going for him is a compendium of joke pictures and a lame smack revolving around decades past, homosexuality and the accomplishments of teams not his own against his rivals' teams.

And then, if you call him out on his idiocy he will invite you to the mall for a pushfight in his crocodile hunter uniform.
