That being said, if we score more points than Notre Dame I think we will win the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skip has our team much more disciplined, and that's going to be the big difference. Its the same reason why Schiano and Edsall had Leavitt's number.

What gives anyone reason to believe that they are in fact the better team? I would even say that they have more to prove than we do, that's how precipitous their fall has been.I like our chances, especially on special teams. My main concern is the secondary, but I think our pass rush can counter that. This team is going to surprise a lot of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are were THE University of Football in America. They have high expectations every year. But in the 2nd year of a new, IMO pretty good, coach expectations will be high again. They will be ready to play. I hope like he11 that we win, but no way do we just roll over them at their place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be at the game so I am going to pretend we have a chance and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
