Commander in Chief's Trophy

While Navy will officially win it with victories over Army and Air Force, I think they should cede it over to us after tomorrow. Y'know, if we had gone 12-0, we would have been 4-0 vs Big Ten, 3-0 vs Pac 10, 2-0 vs ACC and 3-0 vs the academies. Would have been quite the run. Oh well.

Not anticipating too much trouble tomorrow. Trying to figure out whether to watch our game and tape OSU/Michigan or vice versa. I'll probably watch first hour of our game, then, assuming we're in command, hit "record" for the rest of our game and switch over to the Horseshoe. And Cal/USC will be a good one too.

RIP Bo Schembechler. Big loss in Ann Arbor, as I noted in Rosie's previous post. Trivia question: What was Bo's real first name? I didn't know until I heard it today.

Tomorrow's excitement can't top last Saturday's though. I'm still kinda shocked about all the dominos that fell last week. Was figuring us for being 7th or 8th with absolutely no shot. Still not a straight line, but there's hope.

So I'll be rooting for Michigan and the rematch. Will also be rooting for USC, since I want their record at 9-1 when we beat them next week. Did I mention I'll be attending the game? I doubt Arkansas (still my worst fear as a competitor to make the BCS championship game) will lose to Mississippi State tomorrow. LSU next week is the foe that has to take the Sooey Pigs down, before they beat Florida in the SEC championship game. Doubt we can count on Florida State next week to beat Florida.

So, enjoy the games tomorrow. So many games have been classics this year, I just hope OSU/UM can live up to the high standard already set.

Final Score: ND 45 Army 10

GO IRISH!!! BEAT ARMY!!!
