Last home game of the 2012 season and the final seniors recruited by Charlie Weis. Funny how things work out–these guys are 10-0 and looking for 11-0 against Wake.

Everyone knew what you were getting in 5 star super recruit Manti Te’o but no one knew how terrific 3 star Tyler Eifert would be in the 2009 recruiting class–listed then at 6’5″ 225. But then again no worries since we had Rudolph and Joseph Fauria from the 2008 class. Then Eifert had back surgery and lots of concern he would never play football again. Rudolph left early for the Pros and Fauria left for UCLA. Funnier yet Eifert and Fauria both up for the Mackey Award for best Tight End.

I think you could even debate whether Eifert or Te’o is the MVP on today’s team. Both should go in the first round in April. Really going to miss both.

What the hell has Diaco been doing with this defense–we should be obliterating QB’s with the front seven we have. This bend but don’t break defense almost cost us the Pitt game–oh it’s ok we will stop them when they get to our 20 or just give them a FG–good thinking?? manageable FG missed by Pitt almost made us 9-1. Both Pitt and BC missed a lot of opportunities with receivers wide open. Better start to prep for USC this Saturday by turning these guys loose in first half and then be able to rest them.

Let’s forget about the long drives and play the 2 minute drill the whole first half–let’s score 30 by half time and coast thru the 2nd half but tack on another 20 points. Do I think that will happen–No!!

I think ND will fiddle around and have to go into the 4th quarter to pull out a win. If that happens Bama could jump ND in the polls.

Here’s hoping:

ND 30 Wake 10
