In other words, those fans aren't really NOTRE DAME fans, they're Winners fans...sunshine fans. Those kinds suck.

However, Notre Dame faces Michigan, when many predicted a blowout. They won. Notre Dame faced down Michigan State, when much talk was of how they usually seem to lose to them these days. They won again. Notre Dame faced Tennessee when Tennessee was talking National Title run. ND won again. They did, however, lose to Purdue when the talk was of how the Boilers hadn't won at ND for 30 years, and lost to Pittsburgh when Pitt hadn't beaten them since the last ice age or so.

They've reached higher when they've had a swaggering power to face. They now face #1 USC. I will go out and "mistakenly" predict the Fighting Irish defeating the Trojans, at Southern Cal. If I'm wrong, and USC sees the danger of Notre Dame, then oh well, I guess I'm wrong.

I learned to dislike ND when I was stationed overseas in Germany, one of the Television stations that we could catch was this super station from the UK. It was bought out by NBC, who in return started to show EVERY fricken ND game all the time. Your right about their fans, the players and the whole fricken school.

But as far as your prediciton! No way man, USC will not loose this one, anything to keep the sooners out of the number 1 spot. Plus I like USC's QB, he has talent and I am a fan of southpaws
