ND is a poser, and always is, they will not win this game, and weiss should NOT be a heisman candidate.

troy smith is amazing, and showed it today, his accuracy while moving, his mobility, his completion percentage, everything.

Wow, they give the Heisman to coaches now?

troy smith is a coach? im referring to the OSU qb...

Chucky doesn't look like he's in the race for any athletic award. ;)

I'll say. The first time i saw him this season i was like "Holy crap! I thought coaches usually slim down during the off season."

I think you meant to put QUINN should not be a heisman candidate.

You are delusional if you thought Notre Dame was worthy of their ranking then or the ranking they have now. It was all based on hype and pretty much everyone who actually follows college football knew it.

You are delusional if you don't think ND has a very potent offense, so much so that this game is not over.

The can have a potent offense. Can the key word because they don't always play like it. They don't deserve to be unranked, or like 20th, but they certainly don't deserve to be #2 IMO. Their ranking is always inflated every year, and they get votes simply because they are notre dame.

It's all based on the Notre Dame mystique...people always want to see the Fighting Irish ranked highly, regardless of how good they actually are.

Still, they certainly weren't unimpressive against Penn State

Very few teams are unimpressive against Penn State.

What did I say? WHAT DID I SAY??

Michigan went totally soft thinking they could fall back into a prevent defense. It had less to do with Notre Dame's offense than Michigan's lack of defense. :roll:

The prevent only stops you from winning.
