Because Michigan turned the ball over giving Notre Dame better field position. It's really not weird when you lose the turnover battle you almost always lose the game. Michigan finally got beat by a better Notre Dame team like they should have most of the last six years.

holy dog snot. I thought Notre Dame could win, but I never expected it to go as it did. But I'll take it. Now just don't lay an egg against Purdue.

This isn't fantasy football. Yards gained doesn't mean shit unless you make them count. scUM didn't. ND dominated brah.

2 missed field goals gave ND field position. Add that with penalities.

This team is such a joke. Zero improvement. Horrible QB, over hyped RB, young O-line. Funchess should just keep running

haha, or not. Michigan got beat by a better ND team this year, Michigan was better for the last decade. It's unfortunate that this was the last one as we have no answer for this game in the next few years.

I love the Irish (and also a big Sooners fan), but I'm not gonna so far as to say "we're for real" just yet.

How much of that was Michigan just being a bad football team as opposed to how much of that game was us being a good football team?

Give credit where credit is due, Kelly had the boys ready to play last night, and they look like a team on a mission, but it'll be a few more weeks before we know anything definitive.

Go IRISH!

Neuter dame should be happy. They can run away and pretend they dominated the series.

We won't know if we are for real until the Stanford game & the road test in Tallahassee.

They should beat Purdue, Syracuse, and UNC

ok ... this one made me lol.
th

and Neuter dame canceled the series because while the play out of their ass and won one game they knew that Michigan would continue to dominate the series if they kept playing them.
See yah on the field if you ever find your balls again. :pound:
