Look at Notre Dames schedule JACKASS!!!! It's just as hard as any team in a conference, and they open up their season against real teams, not these cupcakes such as temple, eastern michigan, and troy. Say what you want about Notre Dame, but everyone knows they don't play an easy schedule.

That is an easy schedule???? ND opens the season up against the #17 ranked team in the nation, what about yours??

they're skipping the ga tech game?

lsu faces their first ranked team the second week as well. #9 va tech.

ror!!!

Think about how enjoyable it will be to hear him again this year choking on humble pie week after week as the Munsters of Indiana streak out to a 1-7 start to the season. When that time of the season rolls around, he'll have to resort to recapping how Brady Quinn worked more miracles at Notre Dame than Touchdown Jesus.

Everything I said in this thread has been very un-biased. I did not say that Brady Quinn was already the 2nd coming of Joe Montana, I just said he did good in his first chance in the NFL. Then it got turned into this. I like how you guys are just like Mark May and say ND will start the season 1-7. My only prediction is that they WILL beat Michigan this year.

Ok, well ND plays the #1 team in the nation to top lsu's #2 ranked opponent, and ND plays #5 Michigan to top lsu's #9 opponent.

How did Duke get on the schedule? Must be the Army replacement. Blah!

I'm pretty sure they'll win the last 4 games to squeak into a bowl witha 6-6 record!;)

So what? They won't win those games and those are probably the only tough games on their schedule. LOL

Quinn looking forward to next chance for showing off prowess durring mop up duty.

Already judged as one of the finest at reading prevent defenses.

Innate ability to see 5 yards downfield is simply remarkable.

face the facts nd is overrated
 

Same thing year in and year out from you nd fans. We play michigan and usc. Yeah you do and every year they beat you. After usc kicks your ass again, then you get your cupcakes. Duke there is a real college powerhouse. So get off your high horse and your nd tradition. How long has it been since you were national champs? By the way lsu plays in one of the toughest conferences year in and year out. You oh yeah, you think your so good that you don't need to be in a conference. Grow up join the big ten and see how you would really do and also not have nbc give you so much money so we can see all your games every week and hear how your so good and barely finished 500 and make a bowl game. Then if were lucky, you only pick a bowl game thats worthy of you. Can't be a minor bowl, nd's too good for them. You and quinn both need to grow up. It would be so great if duke were to beat you. The party in durham would be historic!

Let me start by saying that I am not a Notre Dame fan (although I was a Joe Montana fan). But can anyone say that their school would turn down the television deal that Notre Dame got? Maybe they do get overexposed when their team isn't doing that well....

Brady Quinn did well in mop up duty. Good for him. Now, he has to work his way up the depth chart and, hopefully for his fans, he does well while doing that. A lot of rookie quarterbacks have looked terrible going up against third and fourth team players. Remember, these guys are still trying to make big plays so they make the team, so it isn't risk-free for the quarterback going against them. It's the first step. He did well.

Ok, I will never respond to a sports thread from you again, seeing how you are a women and when women try to speak sports, it should go in one ear and out the other, face it, females do not and i mean, do NOT know sports. Women go to games just to cheer, and really don't know or care about what is going on.

Michigan beats Notre Dame every year????? Try again buddy!!!!

Notre Dame has beat Michigan 3 of the past 5 years nebrady, so what are you talking about?

so what
 

Michigan like nd is another team that is always overrated. You better beat them once in awhile, or else who would go see the game. Its gonna be another yawner this year. I can't wait till wisconsin gets michigan. Do college football a favor, since you will not join a real conference, go down a division and play teams that like you we don't care about! By the way gets use to hearing these words: quinn goes down, another interception thrown by quinn, look at quinn on the bench and my favorite quinn just another example of an overrated nd quarterback! When you go to a game ask clausen if he can pick you up some alcohol after the nd loss!

You get a lot of dates with that line?
