    definately a top ten team. Weis is a good coach, dont remember their record from last year but i do know it was a good turn around. i think he will begin getting very good recruits there and as much as i hate to say it, good for a long time.

    DD that true but i wasn't one of them. that year they got every break in the book. they averaged a dismal 18 points a game or something along those line. Weis has fixed the Offense. Also Weis is recruiting very very well unlike Ty did. these things are why ND is on the rise and will be at the top for sometime.

    LOL, so you strongly disagree.

    I haven't tried to update my ratings over the last few weeks of the season yet. I'll let you know when I do and I'm sure you'll wait for that with baited breath. I wonder what baited breath means... How you determine what teams belong in the top 10 may be different than how I determine it. You probably wouldn't put West Virginia in the top 10 before last night.

    Weis is a solid coach; its obvious his talent level isn't top 10 caliber. He may turn out a bust, but I concur with lsuk's belief that he will return Notre Dame to a true power. Only time will tell if your gut instinct or mine is right.

    It means you've been eating worms. Bated breath, on the other hand, is muted, inaudible or whispered.



    Not true. A month ago, when everyone was complaining about having to play WV in the Sugar, I was cautioning that the Mountaineers were a very good team.

    Based upon what? I'll tell you. Based upon the constant, never-ending hype created by the media which so deperately wants Notre Dame to be a national power again.

    Thanks you literate foo. :thumb:

    Good call then. So was I. :thumb:

    Based on my keen football insight. Its obvious that Notre Dame doesn't have the talent of say a USC, and to criticize him for letting the consensus #1 team rally given that he is coaching top 25 talent rather than top 10 talent is ludicrous. While Michigan may be down, Michigan out-talents Notre Dame by far, as does a turmoiled Tennessee team. We shall see who is right and who is wrong.

    PS - Is "its" possessive, or "it's" possessive? I seem to remember its "it's" that is possessive, but my memory has become foggy.

    Yeah....didn't matter if they beat Ohio State or not, the fact that they were there, and the media following that Weis has, will get them back in the thick of recruiting and I look for them to be a contender each year from here on out as long as Weis is running that team.

    It's is a contraction for "it is", e.g., The 2003 crystal football symbolizes the National Championship. It's in Baton Rouge. Or, as you stated, it's can denote possession, e.g., USC is seeking it's second consecutive National Championship.

    I thought the possessive form was always "its"?

    You could be right, but if you are I've been wrong for a long time. Any English teachers out there?
