Washington - played poorly against USC
Miami - exciting but sloppy game.  Good defense.  Offense shaky all year.
FSU - Nope.  Lost a game.
Michigan - Perhaps the best team in the country right now, but has a tie.
Texas A&M - barely beat texas Tech.


Only Michigan had a good game this week in the top five.  Hopefully,
several more weeks of football will clear things up a bit.  But I
doubt it.

    So the Bucks lost. We don't belong to the top 10 or 20 anyway.  It 
doesn't seem to be Cooper's year (again *-).
 
    One thing I don't understand is, with more than 4 minutes time, less than
40 yards to go, shouldn't we consider some running plays instead of all 
shot gun ?  It's plenty of time , it's 4 down situation and it's 4 point
game, it should be the perfect time for running plays.  Don't they coaches
even use their brains ?   
 
    But even if the Bucks had scored another touchdown, I would have lost
my money anyway.

     So, I guess what you are saying, Kevin, is that it is ok to attack the Miami
players when they are the visiting team but it is not ok to be happy about making
a great play.  Every team 'celebrates' it is just you see Miami do it a whole

Let me be the first ND fan to eat crow. Chomp CHomp..... blech!


Stanford played very well in the second half and took advantage
of some very costly Irish turnovers. For some reason Mirer was high on
his passes all day. He was throwing to open people, but just couldn't
hit them.

     Griggs fumble in the first half was dubious, but all the other
Irish turnovers were genuine, and Stanford did well to get 21 points out of 
them.

     Notre Dame didnt seem ready to play today. I don't thiNk it was any
genius of Bill Walsh, just Irish turnovers and lackluster play.

Congratulations Stanford!  (sigh)

What FSU did, in the first half, I will not call dominate.  The second quarter,
their yardage was pathetic, and in the first half they got their ten points
through returns, both of which should of been called back for clipping.
However, the third quarter was FSU's.

Gee John.....

Why would anybody want to play Miami????  When the fans go down to a game at
the Orange Bowl (Should have a name change to the TRASH BOWL) you get 
attacked by the wonderful Miami fans....  

I made the trip to Miami to watch ND/Miami game.  While at the Orange Bowl 
the Miami Fans (not all mind you but most of them) were total _SSHOLES...
During the game I decided to go down to the Beer Vendor Station and buy a 
beer.  However the vendor noticing that I was a ND Fan refused to sell me a 
beer saying that he doesn't sell to the ND people.  A Miami Fan in line 
behind me heard this and told me that he would buy a beer for me since the 
vendor wouldn't sell me one.  But the vendor hearing this wouldn't sell the 
Miami Fan a beer either simply because he was getting it for me.  Needless 
to say we were both _ISSED-OFF, we started back to our seats and ran into a 
Police Officer for that wonderful city in Uniform, on duty and you guessed 
it drinking a beer.....

And you wonder why people don't want to schedule Miami....  It isn't that 
Miami is such an over powering team....  It's because the fans don't want to 
come down to the ARM-PIT of the South and put up with the crap the fans down 
there pass out.

This is the reason I will NEVER....  attend another football game down in 
Miami...  Now if Miami moved their home games to Joe Robbie Stadium that 
might help change alot of different school's feelings about traveling down 
to Miami...

Quite a few "GOOD" things happened in the MSU-Florida if you are a fan of
another S.E.C. school:
 
1) Shane Matthews had a stellar performance...NOT!!!!Hopefully the painful
       memory will haunt him for the rest of the season and a 5-int night will
       look like a "good" outing.
 
2) Sleepy did just enough to ensure the victory, but won't be around for the
       rest of the season. Auburn, Alabama and Mississippi should be thanking
       their respective football gods for this (at least until Plump leads the
       Dawgs to victory against them all).
 
3) Florida lost!!! That fact alone is enough to throw a party over!!!
 
4) Look for Florida to bite the dust several more times this season. (Vandy,
FSU, Georgia, and dare I say it, Auburn might all have some success
against a team that will have a hard time regaining a focus after such
a poor start.)

I looked back through Miami's history and found the following.  Miami has
not scored fewer than 10 points in a game since the Jan. 1986 Sugar Bowl
when they lost 35-7 to Tennessee.  Miami has only scored fewer than ten
points and won 35 times previously, the last time was Sept. 29, 1979, when
Miami defeated Louisiana Tech, 6-0.  The last time Miami scored fewer than
ten points in a non-shutout win (which has only happened 11 times) was 
October 14, 1966, when Miami beat Georgia, 7-6.  The lowest score Miami 
has in a win is 2 (to the opponent's 0), that happened twice:  December 6, 
1958, against Oregon, and October 11, 1935, against Southeastern Louisiana.

You might even include Arizona in the list of possibly ranked teams.
I believe the AP poll put Wisconsin, Washington St., and Arizona at
28th, 29th, and 30th places today.  That would make a possible seven
ranked teams that Washington plays.  It is certainly not going to be
a cakewalk.  And Coach James certainly doesn't enjoy being ranked 
number one this early in the season, if for no other reason than that
everybody you play is gunning for you.

Also, you might have noticed that Oregon somehow garnered a point in the poll.
That barely puts eight of the Pac-10 teams up there.  Not bad.

The Point probably has something to do with whether or not the fees

Well, I'll include Washington and Miami in this group, but Nebraska, even 
though they are winning 8 or 9 games a year (against teams like C. Kentucky and
Utah State, and none against a top 20 team in the last 6 years) and Colorado,
who until '86 were losing 50-0 to teams like Missouri and Iowa State, 
definately CAN'T be included in this group.

Sorry, correction, Nebraska can be included if the stipulation of before 1988
is used, and Colorado can be included if the stipulation of after 1986 is
used.  If Colorado can stay on top or near the top of the Big 8 for 20-30 years
like Nebraska and Oklahoma, I might be inclined to start believeing all of the
stuff that I'm reading on the net from Buff fans........
