I honestly hate Notre Dame, and think they are consistently one of the most overrated teams in the country year in and year out, and it bugs the hell out of me.

So when I heard Lou Holtz moronically say they'd be playing for a national title, I made it my goal to break that team down and find its weaknesses.

And they aren't that glaring. The running game could be better, the O-Line could be better, but this team has a stout defense and what should be an outstanding passing game.

Shutting out Nevada was IMPRESSIVE. That team can score.

I have to do a bit more number crunching, but I'm thinking double digit Irish victory.

Dave don't you bash my team..... Notre Dame fell apart when Lou left.... it has rebuilt itself and will be in the top 10. Mark it down now.

Quarterback play won't be the reason USC wins this game handily, the reason will be the glaring difference in team speed, as wacked alluded to.

[brooks85]

QBplay absolutely will determine it. Having boeckman drop back and get rushed was death. TP can move, as he showcased against usc last year. TP performance against the rush will be the factor because osu oline isnt anything special. And barkley is good for atleast 1 turnover.

[brooks85]

also, all the games the osu has choked in and last years 35-3 beatdown, last weeks performance against navy, -6 doesnt seem like a strong line imo.

[Cougar Bait]

Of 1,323 bets 82% are on USC

[brooks85]

haha, i have to wonder why anyone would bet osu early?

[Cougar Bait]

Notre Dame now down to -3.5
Purdue +12

[Cougar Bait]

Some books have Notre Dame at -3 plus Rodriguez named Tate Forcier the starter for the game.
