Many thanks to Weis for going for it on 4th and 8 at the end of regulation instead of attempting a 43-yard FG that could've given me a push. That was incomprehensible.
How could ND lose that game? They had an extra week to prepare, probably watched Navy lose to I-AA Delaware the week before, and and missed various field goal opportunities during regulation that would have given them a chance to avoid overtime.
One year he is the savior of the ND program, and the next he is 1-8 and losing to Navy. Now ND has AF, Duke and with a trip to Stanford coming. All those game are potential losses for ND, and if UCLA didn't bail him out, ND could have gone 0-12.
I am looking to Stanford to pound ND so the PAC-10 can have some reason to say that the UCLA loss was a fluke; however, Harbaugh may love it if the Stanford game means the only difference between Kansas and Oregon going to the BCS championship.
I had Navy too. Didn't even know about the 43 year streak. Really wasn't such a big deal that they won, was it? The part of the game I watched was two teams just running the ball at each other, looking totally even. Could only stand about ten minutes of that.
The UCLA loss was no fluke. As an alum, I can say that the Bruins and Karl Duh-rell are truly that bad on many days. The Pac 10 in its entirety is a farce this year.
I know it's a down year for the Irish -- waaaaaay down -- but Navy stopping this losing streak still has to be one of the Top 10 stories of the college football season. The really sad part is I can actually remember the last time the Midshipmen beat Notre Dame
It is great the whole world is now seeing how bad a coach Weiss really is, he will never get a pro job now. I do not think he could ever get another coaching job either.
