Despite playing against the refs also. I will reserve gratutious outrage over the late game officiating for another post. There is one thing I can say for certain about this Tar Heel team is they posess that talent for playing tough when matters are bleak and making the necessary plays ...

Today’s loss was very tough to watch because for the first time in a while the Irish lost a game that they could have and most likely should have won. Whenever you lose a game by less than a touchdown whiling turning the ball over five times, it’s safe to say that you had a [...]

I know I've always been one to say that the referees do not win/lose the games, but if in the final seconds of the game they had overturned the call giving the ball to North Carolina, as I told my wife, "I was going to drive to the stadium myself". Fortunately it didn't happen, and 22 nd ...

The tall man in the pink (?) shirt would be Florida tight end Aaron Hernandez. Last time we saw him on a Saturday night, he had a nice game against the Hurricanes . Tebow and Verne Lundquist on a Saturday night? Rad. Regarding that Notre Dame ending against UNC - did anyone else think the ...

Great drive for the offense ends with no points. On 3rd down Clausen had Tate for the touchdown, but Tate stopped running too soon and jumped. Had Tate simply kept running, it was an easy 6 because the defender made a horrible play on the ball. 4th and 7 and the offense completes a 3 [...]

Well…. that was just about the absolute worst thing that could have possibly happened on that play. The UNC defense couldn’t stop the Irish offense at all in the first half and all this interception will do is give them a ton of confidence. We had a chance to put some distance ...

First big decision of the game for Weis. 4th and 2 or a 42 yard field goal for Brandon Walker. I would have went for it. Weis calls for the field goal and Walker comes through with his second field goal of the year. That is why I blog about college football and Charlie Weis [...]

Great start for the Irish defense forcing a three and out on the road. The UNC offense hasn’t been able to sustain offense this year and getting them off the field quickly will be key. Love the Irish coming out in the spread offense and throwing it all over the field against this defense.  ...

For anyone that missed the ESPN College GameDay show this morning, here is the piece they did on the upcoming game between the 22 nd ranked North Carolina Tar Heels and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. In it there is a portion where head coach Butch Davis speaks, and then Lee Corso and Kirk ...

Here's what I'm watching today: 12:00 - OU/Texas will have my full attention, although I'll try to keep my eye on ECU/UVA and Kansas/Colorado. Boomer Sooner! 3:30 - Bunch of somewhat interesting games here - Tennessee/Georgia and Notre Dame/UNC are both in HD for me, so they'll probably get the ...

    It has been a long time since 22 nd ranked North Carolina (4-1) has been in the Top 25. The last time it happened, seven years ago, the Heels next game was a loss. With Notre Dame (4-1) coming into Kenan, wanting to be in the polls as well, if the Heels do not play an "A" ...

Where: Kenan Stadium, Chapel Hill, NC When: Saturday, October 11th, 3:30 PM TV: ABC Regional Records: UNC 4-1; Notre Dame 4-1 Another chance to beat a good team and then have someone tell us it doesn’t really count. There has been much made lately about UNC’s offense being ...

From IC: Draughn, Shaun RB Ankle Probable Elleby, Greg DL Ankle Questionable Euwell, Linwan LB Thigh Questionable Mason, Rashad WR Thigh Doubtful Massenburg, Darrius DL Knee Probable Powell, Tydreke DL Chest Probable White, Randy TE Back Doubtful Yates, T.J. QB  ...

Pretty fair analysis from CBS. They picked North Carolina to win the game, but most of what Spencer Tillman had to say was pretty accurate. This is going to be a hard fought game and will be a very tough test for the Irish.

Here comes Notre Dame I had forgotten that Greg Little initially committed to Notre Dame but later changed his mind and signed with UNC. Charlie Weis says there are no hard feelings. Insert you own Charlie Weis joke here now. Will UNC wear navy jerseys against Notre Dame? In an ...

    With every passing week, as the attention shifts from the game just played to the one that is going to be played next, I make my theories/ideas known with the weekly post on the "Fifth Corner" called "First Thoughts" . For those of you that have read it, it is all about on ...

Penn State is undefeated and Pitt won a big game at South Florida. PSU has another big showdowm looming this week as they travel to Wisconsin. Week 7 PSU vs. Wisconsin Notre Dame vs. UNC Texas vs. Oklahoma LSU vs. Florida Okla St. vs. Missouri Mike - , PSU, Auburn, Ohio State Brian - usf, psu, ...

If I had the answer to that question, I would probably be in the Florida Keys sipping on a passion fruit smoothie right now. Alas, I am in a college computer lab and I have no answers. And how could I? Both UNC and Notre Dame give up more yards than they gain. And both teams have lost the ...
