Finally everybody else is starting to recognize how overrated Notre Dame is. If you get the chance read the article on ESPN.com. With the amount of the talent the team is losing this year, they would be lucky to even finish about .500. I miss the good old Bob Davie days when Notre Dame was, so horrible we did not have to hear about them at all. Hopefully those days are upon us soon and they stay that way for a long time.

I agree Josh, and if you have read this site before, you know we are not big on Notre Dame at all. In fact, Brian seems to dislike them as much as I do USC.

Oh yeah Matt I have been on your guy’s site many times and know how much you hate USC and Notre Dame, I totally agree with you and hate them just as much. I was just pointing out that even the guys from ESPN are finally starting to agree with the rest of us as well.

It does seem like ESPN is finally starting to realize the hype on Notre Dame. Now I just hope the poll voters, etc. will start to notice it also.
