Well, seems like he was right, doesn't it? :lol:

Riddick polishes off the Sooners with a ridiculous run from about 16 yd out.

Yeah well...he could also say "Brady Hoke is fat anal crust of a dysenteric giraffe" and he would be right too, but it doesn't mean he should be saying that as a "broadcaster".

I watched the whole game, and I am still not sold on ND. I think it was more of the media Oklahomo bias than anything. Another Big Game Stoops let down. After the beat down by K-State, who have they played!? But yet, Landry Jones and that defense are the most improved?! GTF out of here. And ND, Barely squeaking by all 3 B10 opponents they played is now going to be the #4 team in the country. Teo is a beast, I will admit that, but this game is more of Oklahomo showing who they really are than ND being a top 5 team.

I disagree, in the sense that if ND wins out, they are in. They will get all the poll sympathy in the world. The only scenrio I could see playing out is if Oregon and Oregon State are both undefeated going into the Civil War...then and only then might Oregon pass them. Kansas State may stay ahead of them, but I think they will lose once.

Not necessarily. If Oregon stomps USC next Saturday, and ND barely beats a 3 loss Trojan team, Oregon will be in. Plus their shut out of Arizona is looking better and better.

It will be close. Oregon still has USC, Stanford, Oregon State, and the conference championship. Only game I see Kansas State slipping on is Oklahoma State. They get past that game, I see them running the table.

Very impressed with the way the team finished the game. They've come out strong in the 2nd half in games this year. Wasn't expecting to win this game, and most people were expecting the Irish to get exposed by Oklahoma, but defense did a great job in the red zone and prevented the big plays against a tough Sooner offense. On the flip side the offense went in without their fastest back and with a redshirt freshman into Norman and did very well in the trenches to take control of the game. Going to miss Manti next year for sure, I think this defense will take a step back then.

ND reminds me a lot of the 2002 Buckeyes. Underrated, complete team defense.
Agree with Dryden - ND is for real.

However, if ND, Bama, and Oregon all end the season undefeated, then I believe that ND gets left out of the BCS title game.
