I imagine every fire truck in Morgantown is on alert right now if not already in use.

Leading rusher in the nation drops 185 and 3 TD's on his instate rival, though he left the game injured.

Can't score any points. QB, top 3 WRs, TE graduated. Nobody has stepped up this year. And now our offensive line is in rough shape with injuries. I'm just hoping we can somehow beat Michigan next week.

What a bizarre game we played yesterday, really weird. Up 28-0, then slump after the delay, then pick back up in the fourth quarter. Then a Mizzou player had to get taken off a stretcher with only seconds left in the game. Good win regardless though. RTR!

Dunno bout anyone else but I'm seeing Notre Dame vs. 'Bama as of now. That would be awesome. Unless the Gators beat 'Bama then Florida vs Notre Dame in which case would be even better.

If Note Dame's offense could start clicking, their defense is certainly BCS Championship worthy...

Notre Dame vs Alabama is fine with me. GO IRISH! Need Florida to lose next.

Notre Dame hasn't beaten anyone. This is the perennial overrating of them every time they start the season on a run beating up a service academy and other overrated programs like Michigan and Michigan State. If they can escape Norman I'll be impressed.

A Notre Dame vs. Alabama National Championship would be abysmal. I'd honestly be rooting for Alabama and that's hard for me to say.

LSU is not out of it yet, either.

Everyone is overrated and overranked in the Top 25. As it stands, they (ND) have beaten 3 ranked teams. Their offense is spotty, yeah. But the defense is top notch. These next few weeks have Florida vs South Carolina and Kansas State vs WVU and Texas Tech, so be interesting to see what they do. Oregon might be justified at #2 still, but they haven't played a defense like Notre Dame's yet IMO. They have USC and Standford themselves in the next month.

I disagree.

Notre Dame has beaten a severely overrated Michigan team and a severely overrated Stanford team, each with 2 losses. Stanford's other loss was to unranked Washington and Michigan's to Alabama where they were outright embarrassed and didn't belong on the same field. Stanford almost lost to San Jose State for God's sake.

The other team that you claim as a top 25 team is Michigan State, who was ranked #10 when they lost to Notre Dame but currently have 3 losses, possibly 4 if they lose to Michigan. They are currently unranked. Where a team is ranked when the game is played is not indicative of anything. It's what they continue to do afterwards via their level of play which is the true judge.

I stand by my claim that Notre Dame is EXTREMELY overrated. Their almighty defense looks great -allowing the 2nd least points in D1 thus far, but that's pretty easy when you've faced two offenses ranked 104+ in scoring offense and the other four opponents combining for an average of 52nd ranked, with the highest being 37 and the lowest being 63.
