Well, i don't think that ND will chase them out of the stadium, but it should be interesting.
lol...i give you credit, you stand behind your team even in the face of this team. Now if you could only convince them to man up and join a conference!

Why not make the trip to Miami, and see the Irish kick some 'Bama butt?
Orlando is home, my friend...Besides, it's not like either team is playing the U...hahaha
The U is in Coral Gables, is it not. I believe that's closer to Miami, than Orlando.
Yes, Coral Gables is basically down the street, so to speak. I was saying that I had an incentive to make the 3.5 hour drive from Orlando to Miami....If either team was playing the U then that would be enough incentive for me to go there......In the meantime, if I travel to Florida, it will be to Orlando, my home, and I will watch the game with family & friends..
The first bowl game of the season starts a week from today. You can view the bowl match-ups HERE.
Thanks for the info, but there's only one Bowl game that i am interested in. GO IRISH!!!
No defensive player has ever won it,
"The only player that was strictly a defensive player that won the Heisman was cornerback Charles Woodson, the 1997 winner from Michigan." Source.: Answer.com
Good Luck
Woodson attended the University of Michigan, and played for the Michigan Wolverines football team. He became the starter after the second game of his freshman season and played in 34 straight games. In addition to playing cornerback, he returned punts and occasionally played as a wide receiver.
Charles Woodson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Technically you're right but I would say he hardly won the Heisman for what he did on offense and special teams.
If you go back through history, there have been plenty of Heisman busts...and honestly, i think Manziel was the best choice for the trophy this year. The guy beat top of the food chain in the SEC by putting his team on his back in their FIRST year in the SEC! His performance this season is being overshadowed by the fact that the headlines were focused on UGA and Alabama scuffling for the BCS championship game, but if you look back through the season, in an impossibly tough conference, this true freshman QB found success with all odds against him.
I'm no fan really, i can't stand the SEC...but Klein got exposed against Baylor (otherwise he's a shoe in for the trophy), and while Manti is a fantastic defensive player, let's be honest, without special teams work or a little offensive ability, he's just a tough and skilled defensive player, and in the NFL, they are a dime a dozen. Stand out QB's are very favorable this season because there won't be a lot of them in the draft. Manziel has that swagger to him that lends me to think he'll be a pretty good NFL quarterback...Klein isn't going to do jack squat in the league.
I don't agree with giving the Heisman Trophy to a Freshman, period. I really don't care what team that person plays for(yes, even if it's ND). By the way, how did a team from College Station, Texas, get into the South EAST Conference? Who will be next in the SEC, Wyoming State?
P.S. The first big Heisman bust that comes to mind is...wait for it...DOUG FLUTIE!!!
If that Freshman is deserving, then I don't see anything wrong with them winning it. People said the same thing about Tebow winning it as a Sophmore. And location doesn't matter anymore when it comes to conference alignment. In what universe is Boise St. considered Big East?? It's gonna get to the point where we will have 4 super conferences and everyone else on the outside.
You're right about Teblow. He's a great NFL quarterback, NOT. As for conferences, i hope ND stays independent forever. They have the best of everything, plus a sweet t.v. deal. LOL GO IRISH!!!
U miss the point. I NEVER said Tebow was a great NFL QB.
