Granted...you probably would have even if they were terrible , but they are a lot better than many, including myself thought.

That said, they still look like the 3rd best team in the nation after Alabama and Oregon.

Hossy actually gave notre dame some respect a little over half way through the season.

I still give them credit for doing what they did. When all is said and done I think they are still the third best team I have seen this year, but they should be commended for getting through the season undefeated. I doubt many people thought they could do it.

You called it from day one, and I can certainly appreciate that. Enjoy the ride.

But your approach today just reinforces what a lot of people dislike about ND...which is their fans.

My approach made me a bad fan? I'm sorry I don't just sit back and ignore the constant bashing that has gone on in this thread. When someone says a 12-0 team couldn't beat anyone in the top 10 I'm going to come out firing. Find something bad I said today that wasn't provoked.

The me against the world mentality is kind of silly man. I never said you were a bad fan. I said your approach today, is what turns a lot of people off to ND. The underdog, we get no respect, everyone who can't quote Rudy word for word is a hater stuff is what makes people dislike ND. Mostly because none of it is true and is perpetuated by their fans who can't understand why everyone else doesn't "get it."

Obviously the not beating anyone in the top 10 comment was ridiculous and people called it out.

I think you're taking some of this stuff to heart, when it's not meant to. Your board name is IrishofNDman dude. You have to expect a little needling about ND for that reason alone, right?

I grew up with my family liking notre dame and a couple friends. Being from michigan I am surrounded by state and wolverine fans who hate and I mean hate notre dame. Maybe growing up hearing **** from them constantly gave me the us against the world mentality... Maybe someone like Rick Reilly writing that article about ND being irrelevant gives us that mentality. I dish it out and expect it back, if you think this is bad you should see the shi* I've gotten into on Facebook with people. Alcohol and the Internet don't mix too well haha

Last thing for the night, if Manti Teo doesn't win the heisman then that award is officially offensive players only. I honestly think they will give it to him and he is well deserving of it. He embodies what a college athlete should be on and off the field, class act.

Dude is a lock. A lot of old school voters are not voting Johnny football just because he is a freshman. I actually think Braxton Miller will finish second.

You do know that Peyton Manning didn't win the Heisman right? Know who did?

Who cares what Rick Reilly says? He's a hack.
