Game thread: USC 34, Notre Dame 31 (Final)

[BB73]

Zbikowski with a monster punt return TD, breaking tackles all the way for 50 yards.

That play will keep the crowd and the team fired up for a long time.

21-14, ND!!

After that TD run-back on special teams it looks much better than that!!

On that ensuing kickoff, USC was fortunate that the kick went into the end zone after the returner went down.

they're lucky it didn't touch the returner, at first i thought it did, i guess not, but with ND's luck and with Bush back there he would have probably just picked it up in the endzone and took it for a 105 yard td return

Very nice pick by the Irish.

INT Notre Dame in the endzone

Great pick...

It's early, but the "No Heisman for Leinart' campaign is working so far.

Both USC TD's are on the ground, and he just got picked in the end zone.

wouldn't hurt if Brady Quinn would put up some more stats also.

I've heard it from several places but Bush may have passes Leinart as the top player for the Heisman

what's truly frightening about this game is what happens when charlie weis starts getting elite athletes, which he does not have now, at least not across the board.

Personal Foul

1st down ND, 21-14 looking to drive for a 2 td lead with 6 minutes left.

 

[sandgk]

Automatic 1st down -words that may haunt Pete Carroll.

 

[OHSportsFan]

[tedginn05]
