Great opener for the Irish. Looking at this game from the other perspective, this was a terribly embarrassing loss for a once great Texas program. How in the name of Lyndon Johnson, Sam Rayburn and Darrell Royal is the land grant school from the greatest football state in the USA gonna allow their boys to get their butts handed to them on national tv by some papist yankees? It gome be one ugly ride back to Austin.

ND should win as long as they can shed their underachieving ways that have been a hallmark of the Kelly era. I realize you have to play the game, but on paper ND is clearly the better team and while I don’t expect a blowout, a two touchdown victory on your home turf against a freshman and sophomore dominated squad shouldn’t be asking too much.

Irish are pumped for this game!! 45-14! Team will get a little giddy, overconfident/ expect a loss
v. Ga Tech/ but big wins vs. Clemson, USC. I expect 10-2 w/ probably loss @ Pitt/ win the rest!

As long as we limit our turnovers this really shouldn’t be as close as most predictons indicate. Irish run all over the longhorns and Zaire hits a few long ones to fuller. ND 31-13

Let the games begin! Finally The Irish have some depth and experience. If we’ve got the luck of the irish could be a great season.

More worried about opening in Austin next year. Am I looking too far ahead? Texas has a way to go and I agree the Irish will be too much for them. They are a young team rebuilding, but not a pushover. I think it will be a good test but I think the margin of victory will be bigger. ND 35-14!

Spot on Vannie. If only the Irish can strike early with a few long sustained running drives and force the Longhorns to beat our secondary in the air, could be a more decisive win than 10. Who knows. Go Irish.
