At the beginning of the year Notre Dame was getting called out even before the season began. They were getting called out because they had one of the toughest schedules in the country. They had to go to a tough stadium in Michigan State, in week 3 then in week 4 come home for a tough Michigan team that has beat them every year since 2009. Next they have a bye week before they play the Miami Hurricanes in a neutral site game(Chicago). After that they play Stanford, at Oklahoma, at BC, and to end the season in California against rival USC. I however, have faith in my team every year and we won the 1st game of the season 50-10 vs. Navy in Dublin, Ireland. Then, in week 2 we beat Purdue 20-17 behind the game winning drive from veteran QB Tommy Reese. In week 3 we beat Michigan State in a hostile enviorment, 20-3. That game was a big win for Manti Te'o, an All American linebacker, because the during the week leading up to the game his grandma and girlfriend both died less than 24 hours apart. Last week, we beat rival Michigan 13-6. In that game the Irish defense and captain Manti Te'o forced Denard Robinson to 4 interceptions and 1 fumble. As i mentioned before we have a much needed bye week this week in which Manti Te'o is going to go home and be with his family. I think we could battle through and beat Miami next week to improve to 5-0 and maybe 5th in the AP polls. I think we will end the season with a BCS bowl, mabye the Sugar or Rose Bowl.
