Based on the fact that Notre Dame football consumes roughly 70% of the NCAA Div 1 Football thread, I think it would be appropriate to have its own thread.
Go, Irish!!!

They landed All-American Greg Little, a 6'2" 214lb. kid from North Carolina yesterday. I was standing next to him on the sideline before the ND/UNC game and didn't even realize it until my brother pointed him out. From Rivals:
http://notredame.rivals.com/viewpros...40381#scoutingHe’s a running back for the most part in high school but wants to play wide receiver in college. He’s still very raw as a wideout and tends to fight the ball but he has the size and speed to become a dominator down the line. His best projection is at safety or linebacker where his skill set is rarer. Little dominates in his school based on his pure athletic ability and once he focuses on one position, he’ll be better off. On defense he closes on the ball well and has the speed to cover a lot of ground.
Unfortunately they missed out on Aurellious Benn, who chose Illinois.
Even though I don't watch college football, I still profess my love for Notre Dame. Go Irish!
What team do you support besides the one playing Notre Dame every week?
Jimmy Clausen is overrated.
Quarterback Jimmy Clausen played only 24 minutes in Oaks Christian School's regular-season finale against Santa Paula, but those 24 minutes were ones to remember.
Clausen was nothing short of spectacular Thursday night as he completed 14 of 17 passes for 367 yards and four touchdowns as Oaks Christian captured its 41st consecutive win by beating host Santa Paula 56-0.
Clausen's four touchdowns gave him 130 for his career and put him within two of tying the all-time state record.
Irish sucks.

Michigan
1/2 a championship in almost 60 years. Good stuff. Curse of the Bobino?
47-21
Although Michigan beat ND this year.....I would say ND has owned that rivalry in the recent past

1/2 a championship in 60 years. I would try to ignore that too. Trust me a Red Sox fan I'm good at it so I'm more than willing to give ou some pointers on that.
My team has won a bowl game in the last 10 years
Even though UM has been 2-3 against ND in the last five years, when we lose to ND, it's by the score of one TD or less, whereas in the two times ND lost to UM, those games were blowout losses (38-0 in 2003; 47-21 in 2006).

It's funny how Michigan fans are suddenly turning up this year.

Oh I definitely wasn't implying you. You've always said that Michigan was the team you cheered for in regards to college football.

Notre Dame goes for the Commander-in-chief trophy today!
Do you think they can pull it off?
What do you win for beating Ball State, Northwestern and Central Michigan?
Navy's going to a bowl game and Air Force took Tennessee to the wire in Knoxville. It's a pity people can't get over their hatred to use their critical thinking skills.
Whoever the genius is that landed the NBC deal and negotiated the BCS contract that says Notre Dame plays in a BCS game if they're anywhere in the top 12 (is that right, or is top 10?) should be enshrined in the CF Hall of Fame.
That TV deal gets you guys TONS of nationwide exposure and the BCS deal is sweet too. Although, with that schedule every year it's not a given ND will be in a BCS bowl. On another note, seems to me like the Domers are the Yankees of college football.

I like Notre Dame's fight song... but I like Michigan's better, though.
Those who can — do. Those who can’t — criticize.
Michigan definitely has a cool fight song, it's my second favorite...right behind Texas, and ahead of ND. Someone needs to put together a thread to vote for favorite college fight song.I like Notre Dame's fight song... but I like Michigan's better, though.

Shouldn't be concerned about your team? The death of Bo may fire them up but it's very realistic that the loser of this game won't be in the National Championship and Florida, USC, or ND (with the Commander-in-Chief trophy of course) can get in. I'm saying Ohio State 37 Michigan 20.

Everything sounds great about Clausen. But I still get worries as I have not seen this kind of hype for an ND QB since....Ron Powlus!
Mo on repeating in 2010:
“The question is, do we want to do it? The question is, are we still hungry enough to do it?”
Don't be worried. Powlus got hurt his freshman year and was never the same. Clausen is the real deal but injuries are always the wild card. Weis will have a better offense than Holtz to maximize his skills too.Everything sounds great about Clausen. But I still get worries as I have not seen this kind of hype for an ND QB since....Ron Powlus!
The backups are good too. Demetrius Jones might even start next year from what I'm hearing.
2007 is going to be a tough season for ND though
That'd be interesting. If Demetrius can throw, I'd definitely be interested to see him back there. It'd add another dimension to an already awesome offense. But yeah, we might take a step back next year. I just hope the defense gets better.
Today's game versus Army is the 49th meeting between the two schools.
Notre Dame owns a 36-8-4 record in the series.
The last Army win was in 1958.
I'm certainly looking forward to this classic match up!

Wow, in my entire lifetime, Army has never beat Notre Dame. NEVER!
The entire Vietnam War started & ended in this time!
The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, The Who, The Stones.......NONE even were even in extistence that last time that Army won.
Dwight D. Eisenhower was the President.
EVERY MLB player active in the game today was yet to be born!!!
EVERY NFL player active in the game today was yet to be born, even Morton Anderson!!!
Man, this game is one hell of a Tradition!!!
....
It sure would be nice to see Army improve their record today.
If I had 3 wishes... One of my wishes would be to make a select few of you Pirates Fans.
I love how Michigan is playing Ohio State and USC is playing Cal... and Notre Dame plays Army.
~*~ Bleeding Maize and Blue since 2001 ~*~
Western Carolina is punishing Florida (#3). This can not be good for Florida's chances this year, Florida still has a chance to pull the game out, but they better start scoring... and fast.I love how Michigan is playing Ohio State and USC is playing Cal... and Notre Dame plays Army.
If I had 3 wishes... One of my wishes would be to make a select few of you Pirates Fans.
What does beating one team ranked at the end of the season get you?
Apparently a #5 ranking and a top 5 pick for your QB, although no one is sure why
I'd leave this board if Ohio State's offense can put up 37
But they definitely can win
Hey Johnny, do you realize that Peter Gabriel was 8 years old when Army won their last game against The Fighting Irish? Phil Collins was 7.
I was still swimming around.
....
So, who did those schoold start the season off with? ND's last game is will be a big one just like the OSU/UM game.I love how Michigan is playing Ohio State and USC is playing Cal... and Notre Dame plays Army.
The last year the USNA beat ND, Roger was thier QB.
They have their green on today, and they have been unlucky of late.Today's game versus Army is the 49th meeting between the two schools.
Notre Dame owns a 36-8-4 record in the series.

We weren't born yet, and we're old.
If I had 3 wishes... One of my wishes would be to make a select few of you Pirates Fans.
Actually, I'm not sure what either schoold did at the beginning of the season. But that was the beginning of the season.
It is will be should be a great game between these two Schoolds.
....
HUH?!?! Speak up Sonny!!! I can't hear ya. Hand me my damn reading spectacles.............
....
It's 3-0 ARMY!!!
