Glad to see the article was correct, but the score was 20-3...

This is a hugh step forward for the Irish, with lots of momentum going forward. Just have to keep their heads on straight, and it can be a great year. USC lost tonight and they don't look as great as in the past, and they are beatable. KLM looked pretty good tonight when he was playing,but looked only 80% or so, helped out enough even with the calf thing. Hope he will be able to work thru it the defense really needs him. Michigan will be another tough game, but hopefully Slaughter will be back, he's another one the defense really needs. GO IRISH

This ND Dline is very good - not a rushing td through 3 games. Bell didn't get 90yds rushing - great job! The pressure they applied never allowed Maxwell enough time to set up his throws. ND's oline stepped it up BIG time in that 4th quarter drive starting from our 4yd line - great blocking & hard rushing by Woods leading to that field goal that pretty much sealed the deal. Really a gutsy win in Sparty's House. Next stop Michigan - in OUR House! Now we all know that Denard is going to be a handful - truly a td threat every time he touches the ball. If ND's offense can control the time of possession - keep Denard & Co off the field and contain him when he's on the field we should be able to win this one and be 4-0! Denard is a legit scoring threat anytime he has the ball - if this is a close game in the 4th quarter he'll keep the ND Nation on the edge of their seats. Bet ND smothers Michigan - GO IRISH!!

We owe Denard a beat down. One Heisman hopeful down, another next week. The only question about our defense is our secondary and they're getting better week by week and Robinson isn't exactly an aerial attacker. Every ND fan should be on cloud 9. I'll be at the game next week...Goooo Irish!!! Beeeaattt Wolveriness!!

rudy45...i remember ND was known for being "heisman makers" because of Palmer, and Bush...but now I think this team will be known as Heisman (hopeful) killers =)
