GO IRISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The two Notre Dame Football games that I have attended are georgia tech & usc. I might be there for more NDFB games just depend on certain things to happen. NDFB have an off week so no one suffers after this Saturday in college football. I will have more info on the teams that NDFB played against and if NDFB had a tough schedule or not. I did think that NDFB had a tough schedule but I thought we would do better on challenging the other team. Just to let everyone I hate the bcs to help decide who plays for the title. Take it to the playoff step so we can see who is the over all great team from taking the “Q” from I-AA division. Both the men & women ND Soccer teams are doing pretty good this year & I hope we can keep on going thru the ncaa’s to win it all. GO IRISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
