So while we've beaten three teams ranked above us, today was not to be number 4. And while we kept it close, Stanford proved it is the better overall team tonight.
The ND Alumni Band was there in pretty good strength. I forgot to DVR the game before we left LA, so I hope someone will tell me you heard us (and that we sounded good!).
We fell behind, which is never good, and while Tommy had his good points, he didn't have a great game. Which is what we needed, since Stanford's offense did a very good job on our D overall, gaining over 400 yards.
Tommy's last INT was the costliest and most avoidable. He simply under threw an open receiver, and we could have been in definite scoring position with a good connection.
Our decimated defense showed its greenness and just wasn't able to make the plays it needed to.
We had a great time at the game (minus the loss); our band was about 25 strong and we filled the ND corner of the stands with lots of good noise. Anyone looking for a opportunity to play in 2015, please join is!
More later but very glad I was able to be in the stadium supporting the team.
GO IRISH!!! BEAT BOWL OPPONENT!!!

Watched the game but did not hear the ND pep band at all unfortunately. As Kelly said after the game, we were one play short. Played good against a great team but not enough...
