That was a Dennis Green led Stanford team. The Walsh loss was in 1992.

Rees = 33 PPG. SSS! Happy New Year all!

Tirico is great! Flutie is not! BQ not that good and super annoying Mayock was awesome but people didn't like the x's & o's I guess.

This is also the home opener. Irish 8-1 in home openers under Kelly. Only loss the debacle vs USF in 2011. In those 9 games avg score... ND 32.1, Opp. 13.4. Since 2013 ND is 6-0 in home openers with only 1 game, Michigan 2018, being less than a 3 TD margin. AVG score in home openers since 2013... ND 37.6, Opp. 11.5

The Over hit in the first half

100% agree. I do think we definitely have more depth than in past seasons.

ND 24 Clemson 22

Apparently Dexter Lawrence an OL and TE all failed drug tests.

I drink a beer for each point ND scores. It was a rough couple days after Wake!

Armstrong's TD reminded me of a play Holtz would run to Jeff Burris around the goal line back in the day. Marc Edwards got that call from any spot on the field.

1988 and 2000 were also day games

Cuse defense gives up a ton of big plays. ND does not. This is per Tim Prister 60-yd plays allowed: ND 0, Syr. 8 50-yd plays allowed: ND 2, Syr. 13 40-yd plays allowed: ND 5, Syr. 19 30-yd plays allowed: ND 10, Syr. 24 Cuse 64 plays over 30-yards (6.4/game) ND 17 plays over 30-yards (1.7/game) That is a huge differential. Get off to a good start and avoid turnovers especially ones that give Cuse a short field and the Irish should be okay. Also Cuse has struggled a bit scoring TDs in RedZone 63 RedZone Poss. 37 TD 58.7% Hold them to Field Goals and ND wins this game by double digits.

I've been to this game 5 times. 1994: TIE 2000: Win - Clinched a Fiesta Bowl beating from Oregon St 2002: Loss - on the sidelines for work watching Carson Palmer shred ND 2004: Loss - on the sidelines for work again, Quinn to Billy Palmer for a 7-0 lead and then outscored 41-3 2012: Win - Theo doing Theo things... Sweet Victory! The Cuse result will help make my decision. Although, my couch with an unlimited supply of adult beverages seems like the top choice at this point. Go Irish!

Still deciding if I want to go to this game. Went in 2012 for the BCS clincher. Coliseum is such an uncomfortable dump!

Some that stick out to me... 1989 at Michigan (rocket 2 Kick returns) 1990 at Tennessee 1995 at Washington
