The game turned out to be a yawner. You probably should have worked on your slice.

I watch the games, too. Watched this one today. Defense was amazing and showed no signs of losing steam, even with multiple players getting nicked up.

Well, you can see what happens when I combine the two.

If Alabama forced this goofy schedule on Saban he’d probably quit.

If ND gets upset I will give Kelly a pass and put the blame squarely on Jackanapes Swarbrick who uses ND football as a marketing tool. This is the closest ND has come to a playoff berth and and actually challenging for a national title since 1988 and it could all slip away because of the ill thought out Shamrock series.

Thanks Jack.

Notre Dame is the more talented team, but that isn’t a guarantee of anything. Ian Book is going to be playing hurt today, make no mistake about it. If he can play well and finish the game, ND will win. My prediction factors in the possibility that he won’t. This is far more important than the travel factor, which you seem to believe is the only criteria for my prediction. Anyone can write a homer article. It takes more effort to be objective, even if it’s painful to do so. It amuses me that no one accused me of bias when I was predicting win after win after win.

Syracuse knocked Clemson’s QB out of the game and held them to 27 points. They took a 23-13 lead into the third quarter at Clemson but could not hold on. I think ND needs to score in the thirties to win this game but won’t get that many points with Wimbush at QB.

Note this halftime score: Alabama 10 The Citadel 10. College football isn’t always logical.

They can lose for sure, but they shouldn’t. I don’t like they gave up home field advantage to play this game in Yankee Stadium either, and it looks a lot worse with so much riding on it. I won’t call you an idiot, but you’re not being objective guessing it will be what costs them. They are big boys, and some times you have to overcome not having every last advantage. Syracuse is not as good as they are.

Since you are from Florida, your vote doesn’t count.
