As you can say with many of the Notre Dame opponents, this is always a tough one no matter the talent level due to the rivalry. These two teams have played so many times and had so many great games. ND comes in at 4-2 and BC comes in at 5-2 with losses to VT and Clemson. BC's biggest win thus far is vs. Florida St. They start a freshman QB, but he has pretty good numbers with 9 TDs and 4INTs. I would think the bigger concern would be sophomo
re RB, Montel Harris who has 10 rushing TDs to go along with his 756 yards and a 5.6 YPC average. But with this ND defense, I'd rather face a good RB than a good passing game. The BC defense definitely gives up it's share of passing yards. Once again, I find it really hard to believe we won't put up big umbers in the air. Clausen update: 1804 yards, 14 TDs 2 INTs. Projected: 3608 yards 28 TDs 4 INTs. Tate update: 719 yards 6 TDs. Projected: 1438 yards 12 TDs. Pretty impressive by both. Love that Parris, Goodman, and even Kamara can contribute some. Really want to see Rudolph get more throws in his direction. Like the combo of Allen and Hughes. Let's get this offense really rolling the rest of the season! I call another high scoring affair in this one. I like that we play at home. This is a must win. We are #26 in one poll and #30 in the other. With #24 Kansas playing #25 Oklahoma, Pitt vs. S.Florida, TCU vs. BYU, and UConn vs. WV, I think we can move up to about #23 with a win. Then with Washington St. the next week, we can continue to creep up. I call another high scoring affair in this one. The early line has ND favored by 9.5 points. I say ND 38 BC 31.

I must admit that I am truly disappointed with the outcome of last week's game. I will also admit that many aspects of the game were encouraging. As an "old", long time, fan of the Irish and still remember the "glory" days, I am saddened to think that the program has deteriorated to the level that fans are actually happy about losing a game! "Gee! We didn't get blown away!" Is this an acceptable expectation of a once proud program that used to be upset when the Irish didn't cover the winning spread? I think not. Let's get someone in the head coaching position who can do more than recruit. Can we not find someone who can recruit and inspire?
