ND vs Michigan Pre Game Thread:

[jjc2009]

Anyone else feel like the rest of the season will be a downer if they blow this one? They've blown so many chances against so many mediocre Mich squds the past 5-6 years and it will be a long time, possibly not for a very long time that we'll get the chance. With all the big recruits coming and the way the schedule sets up, I'm gonna have a hard time getting up for this team if they don't pull it off

Yes we need this win. I really think if we win this one we have a shot to be 5-1 or 6-0 going against FSU. Who knows by then Maybe Winston will be out. I honesty feel we have no shot against FSU but you never know. The good news if we go 11-1 and our 1 Loss is against the best team in Football we should make the playoffs.

If we don't win against Michigan it will be a huge downer. Couldn't agree with you more this game is a extremely important.

It's like Mio, a win vs. Michigan changes everything.

Sorry about the above link, it doesn't work.

Thank God for DVR. I must watch MSU/Oregon, USC/Stanford, and Fichigan/ND, but unfortunately there is some overlap.

After the Rice game, I think ND could be a really, really good team. Also I think FSU could possibly be a beatable team.

I was impressed with our O and D lines and the defense looks like it has potential to be very good this year as they communicate better. I have been a skeptic about Golson, but wow, he looked great. I'm not predicting this, but I would not be surprised if we give Michigan a good old fashioned ass beatin'.

OMG I just noticed that we don't play MSU this year. Damn Im going to miss that game. I hate how our new schedule is now losing all these games. Next is we will lose USC.

If Golson has a game like he has last week, this week he will be in the top 5 in Heisman.

No turnovers. *No Rees to worry bout anymore*

Control LOS and run the freakin rock.

Should win ... this time!!!

Should win, just like 3 of the last 4. We tend to put Michigan QB's in Heisman trophy contention every year, Forcier, Robinson and then Gardner. Then they suck it up against everyone else. Hopefully we are ahead of the curve this year, and we can get them to stink versus ND.

 

[craigk217]

Yeah, I saw that.

 

[Irish7478]

A bunch of guys praying that the Big Ten has a good week.

I'll probably plan to leave around 1:00, which means I'll probably actually leave around 1:30. That gets me there around 4:30 (depending on construction). Getting pumped. Weather looks great, actually a little cool, but perfect football weather.

Just goes to show you they really get up for this game, no matter how bad they are. Between this and their fans' incessant whining about ND canceling the series (when they had a long and disgraceful history of doing it to us and were already on record planning to do it when B10 went to 9 game schedules), just goes to show you, Michigan needs this series more than we do. I almost pity them, but they are insufferably arrogant. I know it will be close, maybe even a loss, but if there was ever a must win game, this is it. Send this assholes off right.

Is it game time yet? Damn I never wanted a sat to go so fast in my life. Lets Go Irish

So what you are saying is the Big 10 Game Day crew all picked Michigan, not surprised.

wait a minute .... Michigan isn't ranked, notre dame is and it's at notre dame and none of them picked notre dame? I find that a little hard to believe.

Big weekend for ND with recruits this weekend.


#1QB in the 2016 class is coming henry and rumors is he might commit.
#3 RB 2015 class - Soso Jamabo and he is bring his whole family. Parents want him to go to ND.
#4 OLB Gustin is coming to the game. USC lean but ND is right there.
#10 ILB Coney is coming and its between ND and Florida. Alford is recruiting him hard.


These are just a few. Big Weekend for ND. Always is.

If they weren't impressed by this weekend, they're not going to ND. Perfect weather, great game, great crowd, hopefully we get at least a couple of these guys.
