But I spent the first half of the game in tears. (I was busy chopping onions and making spaghetti sauce.)
Really, I was trying hard to find the feeling of "It's ND, they'll pull out a win in the end" but I couldn't summon it until our guys finally capitalized on a crucial turnover at their goal. Had their player not fumbled, we'd have been way down and demoralized. So sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.
Speaking of good, I found my fan favorite. #37 Mike Anello, the walk on who earned a scholarship, should be the model for all our players. He might not be fastest, he's definitely among the smallest, yet he's on the spot to make the play. Where's the zeal from the rest of our guys? Pick it up, boys!
I don't have any season predictions at this point, but if Michigan has a shaky start again next week, we could capitalize on the momentum that seemed to show up in today's 4th quarter. I believe I'll be able to park myself in front of the TV for the entire game -- Bob and Kyle will be at the SU drubbing by Penn State next Saturday (they looked sickly against the Akron Zips today. That is the one prediction I'm making for certain -- ND will handle SU without any difficulty. The only question we have here is how much longer Greg Robinson will be the head guy.)
Nice shot of Joe Montana's son there on the sideline. Hey Godfather, does your daughter have any classes with him? LOL Some nice shots of the band as well today but I don't know who I'm looking for as far as your kids getting TV time.
Go Irish!

Hey Rosie,
Good call on the key play of the game being that endzone fumble; I say we lose for sure if that ends up being a SDSU touchdown. I also love Anello that guy flys all over the field and plays with a lot of heart (something the rest of the Irish could use).
I don't think Angela is in class with the young Montana though there are several football players in her Genetics class including the next football phenom Dayne Crist. Angela only marched pre-game and post-game as she will see some pine time as a freshman.
Thanks for blogging!
