As pleased as I am with the wins (especially Mich St and NC), I will remain skeptical about our teams until they achieve success in the tournaments. A twenty-eight win season means little if you get taken out in the first round of the tournament. The 2012 undefeated regular season football team is overshadowed by the 42-14 whipping by Alabama in the championship game. It might not seem fair, but everything you do in the regular season is destroyed by failing when it counts the most. Win in March, Coach Brey, and then we will be impressed.

Don’t believe everything you read. Robert Carpenter’s article says that Alford won with wayward players at NM. The kids Alford had at NM were and are good kids. I believe that they all graduated and did well academically. I agree that Alford is arrogant but Robert Carpenter’s article is not fair to the guys that played for New Mexico under Alford.

Kevin:

I assume you are a very devoted and well-informed ND fan but I think 15-1 is better than “good”. We might not beat UVA, Duke, Louisville, etc. but I think it is more than OK to say we are having a “great” season. I am confident you are in agreement with me to say “Go Irish”.

Love the way they are playing! The UNC win was a great confidence builder. I still wish Brey would incorporate his bench more. Its not necessary to play the core players every minute of every game. I firmly believe his inability to work in a deeper rotation throughout his tenure is a big reason why they stink in both conference and NCAA tournaments. I do think this is our best and most athletic team in the Brey era so I am very hopeful of a top 4 seed and a deeper tourney run!

How the mighty have fallen! I remember when we played UCLA at home during Digger Phelp’s first season as coach. The disparity was probably worse than their Utah game!
