The ND-WASH game was a good one today. Too bad the Irish won. The Huskies should have won but could not hold onto the ball in OT nor could they push a TD through from inside the 1 (two failed QB sneaks).

The OK-MIA game is pretty good too. I like watching Jacory Harris throw. Looks like Randall

University of Houston came crashing back to reality. They looked terrible out in El Paso and UTEP worked them 58-41

How did Locker play? Saw him out here two years ago and he was one hell of a quarterback one hell of a zesty team. He's climbing the charts and could be taken just behind Bradford.

He played pretty well. ND took the lead 30-27 with less than two minutes to go and he drove them down the field for the tying FG.

Saw the highlights this morning. Our island boy Mante Te'O saw a lot of action, #5 LB for the Irish. His cousin is the QB on my son's Intermediate team. Kids a farging beast.

Wasn't he the surprise recruit this past year or the year before? The dude who everyone was shocked picked ND?

and a month into the season, they have the same record as Oklahoma...ha

ice grillin you · October 05, 2009, 02:29:24 PM

they have a nice little schedule too...they miss both north ill and central michigan the two best teams in the conference....a great season would have the owls getting blown out by one of those two teams in the mac championship game

MDS · October 05, 2009, 04:55:25 PM

they are not even close to ready for prime time but the mac east is so bad they could run it

the big thing is doing this for 5 more years and hope to get in with the big east if there is a conference shakeup. i get the feeling thats their long term plan in all of this, they arent set on being a friggin mac team.

mpmcgraw · October 05, 2009, 08:16:59 PM

I disagree.

They don't have the resources or the prestige to compete in this area. Rutgers, PSU, and to a lesser extent those zesty ass delaware colleges are going to take 99% of the worthwhile recruits.

MDS · October 05, 2009, 08:27:20 PM

dont matter

being in the big east and winning 5 or 6 games every so often is good enough. no one is demanding being ranked.

mpmcgraw · October 05, 2009, 08:27:54 PM

right except they will never be good enough to be in the big east for reasons mentioned above.

Dont hate on UD. Devlin is a beast, Flacco 2.0

The Flacco/Cuff team would beat the shtein out of Temple any week.

I havn't seen much of them this year, but I have heard Devlin looks good. Has he really been that good? I know they have a loss already.
