The poster was clearly talking about Michigan until this point "If ND looks good vs SDS this game will be huge in restoring respect to ND."
Come on maize, don't be one of those poster, I like a good debate between a rival fan, but one thing that I can't stand is the proof reader poster, we all know these people, don't they just annoy the hell out of you. This is cbssportsline, not an english class, don't be a tool.

First of all, I just want to see that Rich Rodriquez is almost in the Nick Saban category of scumbags. This disloyal guy tells Pryor that he is leaving WV before his own team. ARE U KIDDING ME? AND HE DIDN'T EVEN GET PRYOR, lol.
Second, its not all about Pryor not coming to Michigan. Rodriguez simply cannot implement an effective spread offense that quickly with the players currently at Michigan, especially by week 2.
It seems like ND is finally recruiting some studs on the defensive side of the ball with speed. They should be able to match up better with the good offensive teams, which Michigan won't be, at least early in the season.
Finally, it all comes down to the offensive line for Notre Dame this year. I am a die-hard fan, and I had to turn the games at some points last year becuase their o-line was the worst I have ever seen at ND, which prides itself on dominating up front. I think Sam Young will solidify the line this season and actually give Claussen more than 1 second to get rid of the ball. The athletes are there on the offensive side, we just need the o-line to step up.

I agree with the fact that Michigan is done because they have no QB. But, as I was one to pick ND to go 9-3. How did that work out? Not so well. I am a faithful Irish fan but the best i cna see us doing this year is 7-5. I honestly hope I am wrong and that Jimmy Clausen will show me up. I am hoping we will do better. I am sorry that I havn't posted in a while. As always
GO IRISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If anyone is a tool, it is you. So you have a little winning streak going on. ND fans can talk trash because the IRISH have won National Championships and are a team that is always feared. Who cares about 3-9. It is a new season and ND is hungry. The IRISH will be back on top while you panzy wolverines are going down!!!
GO I

I agree. The wolverines talk way too much. How about beating OSU? That's right Michigan can't. So Michigan thinks they will destroy the IRISH this year. Good luck!!!
The IRISH are much improved and are off to a great spring. Claussen is going to have a great year and the Irish will win at least 9 games!!!
GO IRISH

Might not be "feared", but have been good enough to go .500 versus the mighty, mighty Wolverines the last 6 seasons. Yep, when I think powerhouse, I think...not any of the Big Ten schools honestly. Much like the economy, football has passed the Midwest by (including ND).
