Charlie Weis enjoys his hot lunch buffet as much as the golf cart he cruises around practice in.

San Diego State coach Chuck Long was asked which team was better, Cal Poly or Notre Dame. The response:

“That’s a tough question,” Long said.

ND looked like shit, I personally doubt they will win 5 games this season. I can openly admit that my favorite team (ND) sucks. Faith and hope from fans wont win games. What will win games is firing that fat fuck charlie weis and replacing him with someone who actually played the sport and didnt ride the coat tails of Bellichik straight to a huge headcoaching contract. Weis is a fraud and I hate him.

Also, I think Michigan will smash them. Which is fine by me, because maybe after one more bullshit season ND will finally can Weis and look for a real coach.

@Brian

Simon can admit his team sucks because he isnt delusional and isnt going to sit her and claim UM is good when they are on a down year.

Notre Dame’s play on the field did not merit two BCS Bowls.

I didn’t realize the forecast called for rain. Maybe the great white hope will rush for 200 and 4tds.

cgb – Actually, Jon included the word “probably” in his assertion about ND not deserving spots in those BCS bowls, so no, he doesn’t agree with you.

Simon – Why would you ever want to admit that your own team sucks? Even if it were actually true, you’d be about the worst fan ever. True fans never lose faith or hope, regardless of performance (I know a lot about that being a Pirates fan).

As far as the game goes a lot will depend on the play of Michigan’s d-line vs. ND’s o-line, particularly if Michigan can get to Clausen as easily as they did last year in Ann Arbor.

I’m not so sure this will be a high scoring game, especially if it is going to rain the whole day like the forecast is predicting.

ND 21 – 10

Jon deserving something and automatically qualifying are two different ideas. You said yourself Notre Dame didn’t deserve to be in those games so you are agreeing with me.

Notre Dame didn’t deserve to be in those bowls probably, but under BCS terms, they qualified. You might have an argument if they didn’t meet the BCS criteria and were chosen at large, but they earned automatic berths.

Yeah I never quite get that either. Your school is nothing more than a bandwagon team that is quickly headed over the cliff. The best is hearing how Notre Dame fan thought they deserved to be in their last two BCS bowl games.

Umm… Michigan may be crippled, but they’d need to play the entire weekend for the Irish to score 48 points.

Why oh why can’t Notre Dame fans just admit their team sucks?

I can admit Michigan blows and they didnt go 3-9 last year. Is it that hard?

For Michigan to win this Game there gonna have to hope for Clausen, Tate, Grimes, Allen, Hughes, Kamara, Parris, and lets not forget Michael Floyd, to all get injured in practice. Then michigan might get the win. But that aint happenin’ ! Irish will ROLL over Rich Rod and his little X-men boys!48 – 24
