Definitely good hanging out and meeting Queenie and the rest. I ended up Sunday heading down to a waterside bar in Treasure Island, so I would have been too whipped to go out that night as it was.

New polls out now: http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaaf/polls?pol ... 2007-09-02

Michigan dropped like a rock, right on out of the poll.

no mention of notre dame.

some knuckle-head domer in the office shouted that he thinks he'll STILL be in a bowl with a 7-5 record...i asked him if he'd be happy if they finish .500 - lol

that's when he said 100 bucks says they finish .500 - i smacked him so hard on that bet that others wanted to do more...he did 2 other people than said he'd had enough...lmao, there were at least 3 others more that wanted action and claim to have even given odds... lmao!!!

a1bion · Post by **a1bion** » Tue Sep 04, 2007 3:46 pm

Shoot, can I get in on that bet too? Here's Notre Dame's schedule:

Sat, Sep 1 Georgia Tech L 3-33 --
Sat, Sep 8 at (17) Penn State 6:00 pm --
Sat, Sep 15 at (5) Michigan 3:30 pm --
Sat, Sep 22 Michigan State 3:30 pm --
Sat, Sep 29 at Purdue TBA --
Sat, Oct 6 at (14) UCLA 8:00 pm --
Sat, Oct 13 Boston College 3:30 pm --
Sat, Oct 20 (1) USC 3:30 pm --
Sat, Nov 3 Navy 2:30 pm --
Sat, Nov 10 Air Force 2:30 pm --
Sat, Nov 17 Duke 2:30 pm --
Sat, Nov 24 at Stanford 3:30 pm

Looking at that, I'd say the only sure wins they have are Navy, Air Force, Duke, and maybe Stanford. And some of those losses could be ugly. I think Michigan is going to want to destroy them to get over the App State hang over in two weeks.

urapnes · Post by **urapnes** » Tue Sep 04, 2007 3:46 pm

.500 is wholy possible for the domers this season. their schedule is loaded with cake sprinkled with marginal teams and then a few automatic losses.

IHateUGAlyDawgs · Post by **IHateUGAlyDawgs** » Tue Sep 04, 2007 3:50 pm

Notre Dame will lose to GT (obviously), Penn State, Michigan, Mich. St, UCLA, BC, and USC...that's already 7 losses.

They could lose to purdue, though doubtful and I do think they lose to Navy.

I think the domers go 4-8 this year. They go .500 if they're lucky.

Screw the AP, at least the Big Blue got some votes with the coaches. I guess we are going to go out and beat Louisville to get some respect

a1bion · Post by **a1bion** » Tue Sep 04, 2007 3:51 pm

They just announce today that they're going with true freshman Clausen at QB.

IHateUGAlyDawgs · Post by **IHateUGAlyDawgs** » Tue Sep 04, 2007 3:52 pm

c'mon Joe...you want a team that hasn't had a decent team lately to get respect based on hype and a win over Eastern Kentucky???

You're right, if you want respect, you MUST beat Louisville.

UFGirlluvr · Post by **UFGirlluvr** » Tue Sep 04, 2007 3:55 pm

Also I would think UK would get some respect based on the 8-5 record last year, bowl game win and the fact that 17 out of 22 starters came back. UK was 3rd in the East last year. I mean TCU and Hawaii? If you want to talk first game cupcake and easy schedule in general look at June Jones team out there on the island

IHateUGAlyDawgs · Post by **IHateUGAlyDawgs** » Tue Sep 04, 2007 4:00 pm

Oh I certainly agree that Hawaii is incredibly overrated, especially becuase they play nobody.

UFGirlluvr · Post by **UFGirlluvr** » Tue Sep 04, 2007 4:03 pm

Hawaii is always fun to watch but I would like to see how they would do against a top tier Pac 10 school or an SEC school. I think it would be interesting to see the Run N Shoot against a decent defense.

We've got them on the schedule in some year coming up. Might even be next year.
