We’re #1 !!!

October 28, 2010 by Wally 7 Comments

by Wally Well, at least Notre Dame is getting the "college" part of college athletics right.   (See article below.)    Given Irish athletes' tendency to do very well in the classroom, the cynical part of me (admittedly, a large portion) suggests that ND should start The All-Academic Football Conference with the other members being Duke, Northwestern, Rice, Stanford, Wake … [Read more...] about We’re #1 !!!

Navy Torpedos Notre Lame

October 9, 2010 by Wally 21 Comments

by Wally Saturday started out pretty nicely with Illinois clobbering a lousy Penn State team in the House that JoPa Built.      Then it got EVEN BETTER when the midday games got going.     First, Michigan State pounded the UM Skunkbears in the Big House.   Good-bye Michigan, good- bye Denard Robinson and hopefully your Heismann chances.   (Ya know ... it always has a chance … [Read more...] about Irish Limp to Win vs Pitt-iful Panthers
