Bingo. There D-in Nd might need to be lower case. The people who set these numbers are not stupid. ND may have a great offense, but I got big questions about there defense. Georgia Tech beat 3 teams that finished in the top 20 last year. ND beat zero... Sounds good, but I pass on this one.

Pgard I don't think you get it. Weis is a true offensive genius. Last year he was hired kind of late and had to dive in and try and get recruiting done, run spring practice, and had to implement offensive plays each week through the season because of the complexity of what he does. This year, with the kids having been given the plays to study and learn months ago, and teh experience Quinn has in his system now, you are gonna be watching an offensive show that will be dazzling. Noone is arguing that the ND defense has holes in it. But you have to understand, opposing teams will be trying to cover and hold back offensive schemes and patterns that they have never seen in their lives, not in high school or college.
I think you underestimate what kind of Coach Weis is. You are talking about the guy who made Tom Brady and won 3 rings with small market team in the NFL. His schemes and breakdown of other teams videotape are legendary. Expect a lot of worn out to hell db's in the second half of ND games this year.

Who does not get it? 14 points. A dazzling offensive show... What YOU did not take into account is that Georgia Tech is a good team that has a good defense. Notre Dame got close to USC last year and that made them look like world beaters. USC defense was pitiful and was exposed time and time again.

I told you guys to pass on this game. The guys from Vegas were very close again. They know these teams.

The big mistake for all the ND fans is their hearts. This is not a game you bet with your heart. Just like horses. That being said, ND just won a very tough game. Much tougher than most of the top 20 teams. And a win is a win. Just watch the point spread stuff. Very tough business.

I had a few parlays riding on ND -6.5

What could've been a great day turned into an OK day thanks to the most overrated team in the country. I look for USC to demolish these pretenders.

Another hilarious N.D. thread.

I underestimated Ga Tech, they are a very good defensive football team. Notre Dame will continue to improve and this was a good win for them.

GO IRISH!!!!!
