Jimmy Clausen is good enough to cancel out the difficult schedule from what I hear.

Not if the diminished expectations his father is playing out come to pass. (Sore elbow and the like from the Dodd article BB73 earlier linked in).

I wonder what the countdown has moved to on the meter for "when will Clausen Senior be told to butt out?"

So only three Heismans/National Championships then?

Is he going to use that Sharpie he has been carrying around since he was three?

I like these games:

Navy (Home)
Air Force (Home)
Duke (Home)

I heard somewhere that a team of 500-pound grandmothers wanted to play Notre Dame, but Charlie Weis wanted to play someone with less speed than his defense, so he scheduled Duke, instead.

You know, there's a very good chance that Notre Dame will go 4-8 with that schedule.

picking on the domers is always fun, but the schedule looks* pretty brutal this year for the first 8 weeks. i doubt any other team in the country plays one that hard.

* - it looked brutal when they beat michigan and tenn too.....but it turned out it wasn't. we'll have to wait till after the season to see if all the crying the domers are doing about the schedule has any merit. (not like it's ever stopped them).

Irish to wear green against USC

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) -- When Notre Dame faces USC this fall there will be no surprise, the Irish will be wearing green.

Coach Charlie Weis made the announcement Friday, saying the team would wear green jerseys to honor the 1977 team. Weis was a senior at Notre Dame when the 11th-ranked Irish wore their normal blue jerseys for warmups, then donned green for the game and defeated No. 5 USC 49-19 en route to the national championship.
