Notre Dame had a ton of teams change thier schedules and even had two teams drop a game I believe just so they could get a game in before they play Michigan because Michigan has a game before they play Notre Dame.

We already have a huge edge in talent, I don't think one game will matter that much.

I hope we drop 80 on them this year, punks.

I'll assume by dropping 80, you mean passes.

Watch any football? Michigan has the #1 Receiving Corp in the country this year.

Your like the A-bomb. Everyone having a good time, then KABOOM, you show up.

Michigan is clearly the more talented team, but Notre Dame does return 8 starters on offense, including 4 out of 5 on the offensive line. Ryan Grant, who rushed for 1100 yards in 2002 before backing up Julius Jones last year, will be back starting this season. Michigan will also be breaking in a new quarterback in Gutierrez(?), and funny things have a way of happening in South Bend. In any event, I think Ty Willingham has to win 8 games this year to save his job. Getting absolutely manhandled @ Michigan, and home vs. both USC and FSU last year was unacceptable. Any such repeat will no doubt result in Willingham's dismissal.

Honestly, this game still scares me a little I was just mad about the whole schedule thing. Many Michigan fans chalked up this game as an easy win just because of last year, but I know we will not see the same team we saw last year.

As for Matt Gutierrez I am certain that in South Bend he'll prove a lot of things win or lose.

That would be a possibility if we had Michigan State's receiving core.

Braylon Edwards transferred to Michigan State?

j/k

---

Braylon was playing hurt last year, he'll be back to his previous form, don't you worry

Yeah, it was a broken finger correct? The drop early in the Rose Bowl is really the only big catch I remember him not making. He may of had other drops but none big enough remember that well.
