Notre Dame 0, Michigan 38 (Final)

I have no idea what the closest ref was doing, other than letting them get some more punches in for awhile.

They did eventually penalize the ND db (on the left), but I'm not sure if it was that ref that called it.

the ref didn't even throw a flag. :shake:

It took him a long time, but he throws a flag. I don't know why it takes him so long. Except I don't think it's illegal to pin a guy to the ground, and keep him there, if you're "blocking" him. Why they needed two guys to block him, I don't know. The punches weren't required for the blocking, though, and that's where the penalty should be.

How do the ND fans rationalize that? What game was it and when?

So what's the scoop with Henne? Why aren't we getting a firm injury report? Did he break his hymen?
So, he's no longer the 24-year old Virgin?

from mLIve
Ryan Mallett is on top of Michigan's depth chart at the quarterback spot. He might be there for longer than anyone hoped. Rumor is circulating around Ann Arbor that Henne has suffered an injury to either his ACL or MCL - injuries that would likely require him to miss several weeks of the season.
Or, it could be a broken hymen, er, leg, er, ego, er, ACL, er MCL, er tendon.

Here's an understatement: We're not going to lose," Hart said Saturday, according to the Detroit Free Press. "It is what it is. Obviously, I talk. I talk a lot, everyone knows that.

Good Charlie Weis quote: Hearing Hart's pledge, a chagrined Charlie Weis said on Sunday, "If I watched the [Notre Dame] games the last two weeks, I might have made the guarantee myself."

Lloyd Carr:
"I'm not surprised by anything Mike Hart says," Carr said, according to the Free Press. "Do I like it? He said it, and he's got to back it up. We've got to back him up right now, I guess. What do you want him to say? We're not gonna win?

No just tell him to shut the fuck up!!!:biggrin:

Weis says there's good reason for Hart's victory pledge

College football fans looking for a top-caliber game to invest their time in Saturday can't lose by watching No. 1 USC at No. 14 Nebraska. The same probably can't be said of this season's edition of Michigan-Notre Dame.
By Sunday, either the Wolverines or the Fighting Irish will be 0-3. Michigan coach Lloyd Carr's job security seems shaky at best. Notre Dame hasn't scored an offensive touchdown in eight quarters.
Amid the sourness is the spice Michigan running back Mike Hart tried to sprinkle on this weekend's game: He guaranteed a Wolverines victory in Ann Arbor.
"This team's going to be ready to go, there's no doubt in my mind. I'm not going to lose. We're not going to lose," Hart said Saturday, according to the Detroit Free Press. "It is what it is. Obviously, I talk. I talk a lot, everyone knows that. I mean what I say. It came out in there because I feel like we're being doubted. I feel like it's something we need."
That left Carr on the spot just a day after his Wolverines, who were upset by Appalachian State in their season opener, suffered their most-lopsided defeat in 39 years, 39-7 to Oregon, also at home.
"I'm not surprised by anything Mike Hart says," Carr said, according to the Free Press. "Do I like it? He said it, and he's got to back it up. We've got to back him up right now, I guess. What do you want him to say? We're not gonna win?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Please not a season ending knee injury.

Henne must start The Game, so he can go 0-4. He's not getting off the hook that easily and merely going 0-3.
you got that right Dryden. those guys all deserve to be 0-4 and dadgummit they better be.

Found this on a Michigan board, pasted from Notre Dame Nation:

Sure, we havent looked great, but who cannot get their blood up and rally at the thought of challenging this hideous abortion of a university, this monstrous product of former wrongs and shame, this Michigan. This week we are playing the embodiment of all that is wrong in college football. Nay, all that is wrong in modern life. Mouthy illiterate Mike Hart; phony, bloodless WASP bastard/plantation massah Lloyd; the Walmart Wolverines in the stands, looking for the next government bailout of the auto industry or Detroit; corrupt boosters abounding, who provided the largest illegal cash payments in the history of the NCAA; corrupt administrators and faculty personifying the rot of American higher education, smugly mouthing their anemic, personally costless limousine liberal platitudes while standing mute as guileless athletes are used like whores until eligibility is gone, along with the chance at a meaningful degree; the mediocre Oakley-wearing, lemming-like sea of alumni, getting mass-produced diplomas from an assembly line while glorying in their baseless conceit that they are "different", "smarter" or "classier" than tOSU, LSU, Oklahoma, or any other unprincipled football factory; the fetid stench left by the graceless, short-fingered vulgarian Schembechler, the Klansman Yost, the know-nothing nativist Crisler, the degenerate predator Moeller. We may lose and we may win, but we must fight. Should we win, glory for all. Should we lose, rest peacefully in the knowledge of the right we represent and the wrong they perpetuate.
