USC vs. Notre Dame

[TUSooner]

If nobody else has started it....

I predict a USC win by more than a TD. Last year I was for the Domers, but this year I can't decide who I dislike more.

[StoopTroup]

I was just about to do it...

[Rogue]

Go Irish!

[TUSooner]

I was just about to do it...
I beg your pardon.

;)

[StoopTroup]

I went with the Domers.

I still think they got screwed last year.

Maybe they'll be able to even it out.

[OUinFLA]

Im telling the wifey, that for the first time in a bunch of weeks, Im going to watch a game where I dont really care who wins. Hopefully it will be a game worth watching.
She's still a bit leary of coming into the room during the game though. This afternoon she was wearing a baseball catchers mask when she had to venture into the room.

[King Crimson]

szamardja makes the play to win it.

[TUSooner]

This could be a game I watch with the sound off because I can't stand to hear Gushberger gush over either team.

[StoopTroup]

I beg your pardon.

;)
Heh.

No problem...

I got to start the Bill Callahan thread so I'm good. :D

:pop:

[OUinFLA]

This could be a game I watch with the sound off because I can't stand to hear Gushberger gush over either team.

You watch games with the sound on?
Doesnt that get in the way of your ipod?

[soonercody]

Oh gawd it's gonna be a love-fest circle jerk the likes of which we won't see for another year.

[TUSooner]

I'd like to see ND exposed as over-rated, but I hate for USC to play in another BCSMNC game. I could be watching this one from the fence with OUinFla.

[StoopTroup]

This could be a game I watch with the sound off because I can't stand to hear Gushberger gush over either team.
It does seem like they have already soiled their man-diapers.

[Newbomb Turk]

This could be a game I watch with the sound off because I can't stand to hear Gushberger gush over either team.

no doubt. Then you have to listen to Bob Davie.

[TUSooner]

You watch games with the sound on?
Doesnt that get in the way of your ipod?
What's an iPod? (OK, I'm not THAT unhip.)

[bigdsooner]

domer fan tonight

[OUinFLA]

I'd like to see ND exposed as over-rated, but I hate for USC to play in another BCSMNC game. I could be watching this one from the fence with OUinFla.

We could use slickdawgs old fence, then you would never know which side you were on.

[Tulsa_Fireman]

Eleven national championships for SC?

[OUmillenium]

Hate them both. No really, hate is an accurate discriptor. I will hope ND wins because USC is ranked higher and I hate them more. My prediction is USC by 20 though.

[Newbomb Turk]

now that was funny. Big pass completion right in front of petey.

[Paperclip]

That is a big sweatshirt Weiss has on.

[Rogue]

C'mon ND

[bigdsooner]

weiss reminds me of parcell's

[soonercody]

Guru-Charlie Weiss?
More like Buddha.

Dave Matthews Band music for the outtro to commercial...

[Rogue]

weiss reminds me of parcell's

Reminds you of Parcell's what?

[Tulsa_Fireman]

That is a big sweatshirt Weiss has on.

Am I the only one that thinks he looks like a fatter, gheyer Parcells?

[ByngSooner]

Weiss looks like he just got off the couch from watching games and eating donuts.

[Tulsa_Fireman]

I guess not.

[BermudaSooner]

what the hell kinda throw was that Brady? 4th down and you throw it into the seats? Cmon.

[bigdsooner]

Reminds you of Parcell's what?

all of him

[soonercody]

SUC seems to have the early mo.

[StoopTroup]

Looks like the suc machine is ready to light up the domers...

[BermudaSooner]

Big 10 refs? Why does ND get Big 10 refs when we were forced to take Pac-10 refs in Eugene?

[bigdsooner]

Am I the only one that thinks he looks like a fatter, gheyer Parcells?

nope, i do too

[King Crimson]

That is a big sweatshirt Weiss has on.

did you see that KU letterjacket looking thing Mangino was wearing today.......it was about the size of Rhode ISland.

[StoopTroup]

That is a big sweatshirt Weiss has on.
I always feel like he's the guy who mops up the lockeroom, takes the trash out and turns out the lights after every Home game.

[TUSooner]

Where's jerk? Last year I watched this game at his in-laws' place. Good times, except for USC winning at the end.

[King Crimson]

some great D by ND so far.

[BermudaSooner]

I am already sick of that USC fight song. Bad flash backs.

[Newbomb Turk]

sc moving the ball easily through the air...so they go to the run.

[Rogue]

SUC is goin' through ND like crap through a goose.

[BermudaSooner]

some great D by ND so far.

it is Weiss' new matador set.

[Rogue]

This could get ugly.

[Tulsa_Fireman]

Guh.

Where's an earthquake when you need one.

[TUSooner]

TD USC. Looked prety easy

[Newbomb Turk]

sc has some seriously sick receivers.

[Sooner5030]

ND has 9 SRs on defense. That will be tough next year.

[TUSooner]

Must answer "quickly," Brent?

[OUinFLA]

Im really only watching so I can see the Songbirds.
Best part of suc football.

[BermudaSooner]

TD USC. Looked prety easy

So did our first drive today.

[Newbomb Turk]

ND has 9 SRs on defense. That will be tough next year.

and they're not very good right now.

[Tulsa_Fireman]

As much as I'd like to see suc lose, for some reason, shaving corns off my feet and punching myself in the nuts is sounding more appealing right now.

Geeez, I'd give a dollar to punch Petey in the snoot.

[Rogue]

Shoulda been caught.
For a first down.

[bigdsooner]

geez guys hold on to the damn ball

[TUSooner]

Bughhhhhhh. Gotta go get some grub for Mrs TU. But she cleaned out the flower beds in the front today, so she earned it.

[TUSooner]

USC will probably have 2 more TDs by the time I get back.

[SoonerFanInAustin]

Pulling for ND.....I just don't want to see USC in another Championship game....

[bigdsooner]

im gonna watch the au asu game now

[BermudaSooner]

Wow, ND is worse than I thought.

[King Crimson]

i may watch the OU-Baylor game on O-Zone.

[Newbomb Turk]

sc making it look easy.

7K posts - woot.

[oumartin]

Notre dame is pathetic.. they will not beat a good team

[bluedogok]

I can't stand USC but I think ND is going to get blown out......

[bigdsooner]

zona down 14 with 6:23 to go in the 3rd. cmon mikey

[Tulsa_Fireman]

I don't think, I know after seeing this assery so far.

*barf*

[Rogue]

ND looks bad on both sides of the ball.

[rufnek05]

ND is going to get beat worse than they did in the Mich game, and they were owned in that game

[Tulsa_Fireman]

Hey!

The Lawrence Welk Show is on!

Cage match, both in their prime. Bare knuckle, no weapons. Petey Carroll or The King of Champagne Music, Lawrence Welk?

[soonercody]

Well. Maybe UCLA will have a chance.

[Rogue]

The Irish board official game thread:
http://notredame.rivals.com/showmsg.asp?fid=335&tid=83937338&mid=83937338&sid=961&style=2


Why do we even bother sometimes?...Secondary is lost and I don't see it getting any better!

[OUinFLA]

suc will play tOSU in the bcs.
If it's michigan, who outside the big Tweven will care?

[rufnek05]

UCLA might have a chance if they can stop the pass. right now sc doesn't even need a rushing offense with the looks the wide outs are getting. and their O-line is dominating ND d-line like its a pop warner team

[StoopTroup]

Nice run by the domers

[StoopTroup]

That Jeff Salami sure can catch the football.

[soonercody]

Smardzja is money.

[rufnek05]

but nd can't avoid the 3rd and long, only way they will win is if they can convert on 3rd downs

[bigdsooner]

what the hell, everytime i turn it on this game sc has the ball near or on the positive side of the 50. does nd suck that bad?

[BermudaSooner]

Will USC have to punt tonight? This ND defense is awful.

[StoopTroup]

Come on Maryland!

Score twice before the half.

Do for me! :D

[oumartin]

did they score yet again?

[BermudaSooner]

did they score yet again?

just about. went for it on 4th and 1 from the 10. down to the 1.

[BermudaSooner]

td USC. this really sucks.

[StoopTroup]

Suc finally gets their booty in the EZ.

[BermudaSooner]

I can't believe I hate USC enough to root for ND twice in 2 years. That just makes me hate them more.

[MI Sooner]

tOSU better hope Michigan gets a rematch, because I don't think they can beat SUC at their best.

I hate SUC.

[OUinFLA]

the over/under on this game is 62
that's assuming ND can get their 10

[bigdsooner]

there aint a game worth watching right now. nd is a joke and zona still down 14 with 7:33 to go

[BermudaSooner]

Nice run by Brady, but he just looked scared the whole way.

[OUfan7]

60 yds.

[BermudaSooner]

there aint a game worth watching right now. nd is a joke and zona still down 14 with 7:33 to go

wake v maryland?

[OUinFLA]

Nice run by Brady, but he just looked scared the whole way.

Id be lookin scared too, with all those big dudes chasin me.

[BermudaSooner]

fumble. this get worse every minute.

[bigdsooner]

holy $hit, nd got a stop

[BermudaSooner]

YES!!!

[instigator]

I can't believe I hate USC enough to root for ND twice in 2 years. That just makes me hate them more.
I feel the same way. This just makes me sick.

ND sure is showing their asses.

[Rogue]

Special teams!

[StoopTroup]

wake v maryland?
21-14 WF

[bigdsooner]

wake v maryland?

wasnt thinkin of that one. perdy good game

[soonersweetie]

Touchdown Irish, woohoo! Man, the more I see usc, the more I despise them. They make we want to puke.

[King Crimson]

new life for the Irish...."uhhhhhhh, great call by Charlie Weiss........"

[StoopTroup]

wtg domers...

wtg...

wtg domers...

wtg....

[OUinFLA]

well, that td pass looked pretty good.
great fake by Quinny the Pooh.

[Rogue]

Just like that.

[rufnek05]

this is pathetic, this is supose to be a good match up, if i was at the game i would want my money back

[King Crimson]

Bob Davie=Mister Excitement

[BermudaSooner]

how about some more defense now, ND

[Rogue]

Smells like a momentum shift.

[BermudaSooner]

Oskie!!!

[OKC-SLC]

that was really a bad read by Booty. Can't believe he tried to force that.

[BermudaSooner]

Wow, pulliing that halfback pass down was a good decision.

[OKC-SLC]

wow. Charlie Weis keeps trying to be too cute.

[BermudaSooner]

that is the worst option I have ever seen

[rufnek05]

they need a big mo shift, and the domers D needs to lock down, and be ready to go for the 2nd half, chuck better give them one hell of a rockne speech in the locker room

[StoopTroup]

Quinn should have faked the pitch and run for the 1st down IMO....

[soonercody]

McKnight has the dropsies tonight.

[rufnek05]

whats with mcknight not making simple catches

[BermudaSooner]

nice drop. that is awful.

[Rogue]

It's like he was running on a treadmill.
Backwards.

[StoopTroup]

Can't believe he dropped that one....

Irish D coming on strong now...

[BermudaSooner]

Another oskie! whahoo!!!

[StoopTroup]

OMG...another pick!

GO DOMERS ! ! !

[TUSooner]

Is that USC?

[bigdsooner]

im gonna leave it here, nd finally decided to show up.

[BermudaSooner]

Anybody else getting tired of seeing the OU score at the bottom of the screen? Cause I'm not!

[TUSooner]

Just when I want to knock Davie for 2nd-guessing Weis, they show the 3 highlights of Davie's career.

[BermudaSooner]

Who was that 3rd down pass to?

[TUSooner]

Anybody else getting tired of seeing the OU score at the bottom of the screen? Cause I'm not!
Me neither. :D

[OUinFLA]

Is Mangino possibly Weiss's idol?
Seems like he is wearing Mangino's hand me downs

[rufnek05]

ND's D is playing good now, but quinn and the Offense aren't making the most of it

[BermudaSooner]

How about I throw the ball out of the back of the endzone on 4th down. I think that would be a great idea.

[bigdsooner]

Anybody else getting tired of seeing the OU score at the bottom of the screen? Cause I'm not!

hell no :D . i keep turning it on 53 so i can rewatch the sports highlights from channel 6 earlier

its on right now matter o' fact :)

[Tulsa_Fireman]

Right there...

POW!

Right in the kisser! I'd give a kidney to be a sideline reporter.

"So coach Carroll, how'd Notre Dame get back in this one?"

"A blocked punt! A blocked pu-" POW!

"Get your punk *** in the locker room, dork."

[StoopTroup]

Did they just say Dick Turner was back on the field?

[rufnek05]

whaammmy!!! quinn got drilled

[OUinFLA]

I guess nd will go for it the 3rd time this game

[OUinFLA]

that spot sucked

[OUinFLA]

ok, it just didnt suck enough

[OUinFLA]

usc will lose this challenge, I think nd was almost a half yd further than they gave them.

[StoopTroup]

ND better not blow this opportunity

[StoopTroup]

It's about time!

TD ND

[bigdsooner]

bout damn time domers

[mrowl]

quinn pill-poppin.

[OUinFLA]

quinn pill-poppin.

kinda like me in the 3rd and 4th today,
only I dont think quinney is takin valium

[StoopTroup]

Weiss and the domers are giving it all they have in the 2nd half IMO...

SUC is on cruise control it seems. They are very dangerous with the big play but seem unable to put together a long drive.

[StoopTroup]

I think I'm going to email DTV and tell them I'm going to cancel my service if they don't stop running those Dukes of Hazzard Commercials...

[StoopTroup]

Nice D for the domers

[rufnek05]

ND finally able to get to booty

[Boarder]

I hate him and all that, but man...Jarrett is good.

[rufnek05]

jarret, 1st round pick after this game, possibly top 10 in draft?

[mrowl]

why is that ND coach wearing a USC jacket??? confused...

[StoopTroup]

suc' Smith is really really better than mediocre....

Man that hurts to say that...lol

[OUinFLA]

ND has some lookers on their cheerleader squad

[rufnek05]

and i might just be out of reach unless the domers and put several sucessful drives and stop the sc wide outs

[StoopTroup]

YWIA...
http://graphics.fansonly.com/schools/nd/graphics/0607goldsquad.jpg

[rufnek05]

it*

[GreenSooner]

"31-17...somewhat of a misleading score. People think that's a blowout..."

Only if they don't bother doing the math, Brent. What a moron Musburger is!

[StoopTroup]

http://www.trojanwire.com/images/cheerleaders1_STANFORD_2004.jpg

[mrowl]

ahhhh.... sweater girls..... :D

[rufnek05]

sc wins in the cheerleading department, wouldn't it be nice to be a star player out there?

[StoopTroup]

suc preparing for the Death Blow on the Domers.

[StoopTroup]

There it is...

37-17 ROUT!

[King Crimson]

thsi game is making me want to scan my computer for spyware or something equally scintillating.

time to pop in a DVD.

[rufnek05]

its over, that was the knock out punch

[rufnek05]

i'm thinking of watching Rudy, at least it has a moral victory

[OUinFLA]

seems like the boobs our cheerleaders should have been blessed with somehow got added on to those sweater girls at usc.

[AzianSooner]

You have to agree that LA and USC is a very good -- or dream -- place of recruiting.

[OUinFLA]

the late news has got to be more exciting than this

[StoopTroup]

suc has it wrapped up and Petey is argueing about a cheap shot his player made?

Come on Petey...your on National TV.

Don't make yourself look like a chump...

Whoops...to late...

[Sooner98]

Hope Stoops and the coaching staff are watching....this is how you put a team away with a two touchdown lead in the fourth quarter. (just sayin'...)

[OUinFLA]

munchburger talking so much about "style points"...???
is this football? or .......

http://www.gymtide.com/images/00PhotoAlbums/bigpage51/15_Shannon_wins_style_points_on_this_ride.jpg

[OUinFLA]

well, the refs are trying awfully hard to keep the game in touch

[StoopTroup]

Oh man...

ND at 1st and goal and getting every break and still can't score....lol

[StoopTroup]

Finally ND scores...

37-24

If ND could score once more...I'd be happy.

[boomersooner28]

ND is SOOOOOO over-rated. They've played 2 good teams, and got whipped both times. The announcers are still lickin their nuts.....sickening.


I hate the Domers.

[OKC-SLC]

heh. SUC just took the onsides kick to the house.

[StoopTroup]

Nevermind...lol

Nice special Teams by the Domers...

[GreenSooner]

Talk about an onside kick failing! I'm not sure I've ever seen that before.

[OKC-SLC]

i hate SUC, but I think they deserve to play tOSU in NC game. Michigan had their chance to beat tOSU and didn't do it.

[AzianSooner]

Chalie Weis wanna be like his master, The Patriot's coach.

[GreenSooner]

Well I guess, the Leprechauns do get the ball back now...is that "style points" on the onside kick? :D

[OKC-SLC]

although, I can still hope for a major earthquake in the USC/UCLA game, right?

[GreenSooner]

Why the heck does this Irish team deserve to be in a BCS bowl?

[StoopTroup]

They should just give the MNC to Ohio St. and let Meatchicken and suc fight it out for #2. ;)

[bigdsooner]

nd is a fraud, they deserve the cotton or gator bowl...definitely not a bcs bowl

[AzianSooner]

because they are ND... the team with the most number of NC and they are Iris private team of America a.k.a the originaler of all football team.

from what I've heard from main stream media.

[OUinFLA]

They should just give the MNC to Ohio St. and let Meatchicken and suc fight it out for #2. ;)

Outstanding idea!

[GreenSooner]

nd is a fraud, they deserve the cotton or gator bowl...definitely not a bcs bowl

But they beat all the service academies...who else can say that? ;)

[OUinFLA]

they didnt beat the Coast Guard Academy, or the Merchant Marine.
but, I'd bet they would schedule them if they could.

[OKC-SLC]

ND didn't deserve a BCS bowl when Erickson and his oregon state thugs took them behind the woodshed a few years back, and they didn't deserve one last year when tOSU stomped them.

but alas, they'll get one this year. I wouldn't mind so much if we got to play them.

[OKC-SLC]

On the bright side, can we expect the media love affair with Charlie Weis, Brady Quinn, and all their suckitude to peel back a notch?

They just got smoked.

[GreenSooner]

IT WOULDN'T BE A THIRD NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!!!

Remember that Sugar Bowl game in 2004, Brent?

It's such a toss-up which of these two teams -- and the media's attitude toward them -- that I hate more....

[GreenSooner]

But even in failure, Brady Quinn was still being declared the first pick in the draft by the announcers.

[bigdsooner]

how bout a nd\ut cotton bowl? that might be a good game

[GreenSooner]

how bout a nd\ut cotton bowl? that might be a good game

Isn't the Cotton Bowl more or less contractually obligated to take an SEC team?

[Indy Sooner]

because they are ND... the team with the 2nd most number of NC (behind Alabama's 37) and they are Iris private team of America a.k.a the originaler of all football team.


Fixed...
