Notre Dame Fighting Irish (official thread of bowl failures)

BUCKYLE;1272244; said:
Charlie's so fat, he could sell shade. He's so fat, he needs a permit to roll over in bed. He's so fat, he deep fries his toothpaste. He's so fat, when he was born, he gave the hospital stretch marks.

He's so fat, he could sit on a dollar bill and squeeze a booger out of George Washington's nose.

This is going to be a long week followed by a looooong ass season. Do you see another loss on here besides USC? At 11 and 2 the Irish will be demanding a BCS bowl.

Oct. 4 STANFORD
Oct. 11 at North Carolina
Oct. 18 Open Date
Oct. 25 at Washington
Nov. 1 PITTSBURGH
Nov. 8 at Boston College
Nov. 15 vs. Navy (at Baltimore, Md.)
Nov. 22 SYRACUSE
Nov. 29 at USC

Maybe Butch Davis can save the world from the Irish. Go 'heels!

I think Butch Davis will get them at North Carolina and I think Boston College might just do the job too. But, even with four losses, they'll still be crying that they deserve a BCS bowl.

I'm not too worried. USC, UNC and BC are guaranteed losses. Beyond that, Charlie's poor coaching costs them at least one upset win. Stanford, anyone?

He goes, 7-5, gets bumped up into a bowl better than he deserves, then gets routed.


That 7-6, which will be enough for the domers to start planning next year's national championship celebration.

I think they get beat by UNC, Washington, Boston College, USC, and maybe even Pitt.

Don't count Navy out of the potential losses yet. . .
The game at Baltimore vs. Navy 11/15, will be an upset special!
Navy's victory over #16 Wake Forest last Saturday showed Navy is for real.
Following Navy losses to what were thought to be lightly regarded Ball State and Duke squads, the Midshipmen found a weapon in Kirtland Ohio, native Eric Kettani who at 233 lbs did the damage against Wake and Rutgers in Navy victories.
If Claussen has a bad day an opportunistic Navy offense will make it difficult for ND to play from behind.

Back on topic. Charlie=fat. Schematic advantage=knowing the shortcuts to closest McDonald's.

Has it occured to anyone that part of the reason Charlie is so large is because he's having to swallow his enormous ego? Yeah, he was big before, but now that he's munching down on the 200-and-a-Quarter Pounder of an ego, he's getting massive.

Aside from USC, Boston College is a loss. Despite BC losing Matt Ryan and others last year, the Irish lose to BC even more often than MSU. I think they've beaten BC one year since '93, God favors the other Catholic university.
As far as the other games, I think they've be competitive. I wouldn't call Pitt a loss, they've played about as many competitive teams as the Irish. They lost to Bowling Green and beat Iowa by 1. Wannstedt has yet to field a great team in his 4 years back at Pitt.
I'm not sure I would categorize Washington as a win either. They've played a pretty tough schedule, but they're still 0-4. That team's feeling pretty deflated right now. Willingham may be able to get this team into the win column, but he hasn't exactly been the savior of their program yet.
North Carolina is in the same boat as Pitt, similar schedule and one loss. They dropped one to Virginia Tech who has looked okay, and beat a rebuilding Miami team, nothing else of note.

I'm not saying any of these games won't be losses, I think they'll be close. Pitt is at home, so I would favor the Irish there. Washington may be close, but I think Ty chokes again. Not sure about North Carolina, I think it'll be competitive. Stanford beat Oregon State and Washington, but dropped one to TCU, so who knows.

Locker's out for several weeks, so Washington will be a big underdog in that game.
