Running on fumes!... SKELETON CREW!....

Okay...let's be honest!....
Notre Dame would be getting better EVERY game, if we were not a jigsaw puzzel missing some pieces!

We are a Skeleton Crew brother!

Cave-out for year

Kapron-out for year

Filer-out for year

Riddick-hurt

Manti-injured

(remember the Program...Are you hurt or injured?)

Blanton-injured

We are bruised...and baned up!...but 

STILL FIGHTING!

Now let me first of all say...I think we beat Maryland....

I think we beat BC...

I think we can give Stanford a game!....

That game could be called- UPSET...or that game could be called

-Beat the red headed kid next door in the head!...

Injuries will determine that!...KEY INJURIES!...

It's oddly like last season...

With the exception of NO BLOW OUT LOSSES!...

So last year...beaten up...injured...KEY SENIORS not playing...

4 game winning streak to finish the season!

 One thing is for certain.

BRIAN KELLY CAN COACH!

He has done more with Notre Dame in a season and a half than EVERY COACH 

we've had since Lou Holtz!...

If you can't see that this team is better at EVERY ASPECT of the game...

Then you can't see!...

Offense....Hello 1000 yard rusher...

It's been years since we could be at the 5 min mark of the game, have the ball and say...

"Let's just pound the ball and run out the clock!"

Defense...Really?

When was the last time our defense even mattered?...Be real!...

Special Teams?...

How many years...now I'm talking YEARS, has it been since a team we played kicked away from one of our returners?...

We have a legit scoring machine taking back kickoffs!

Now recruiting?...

Anyone remember the 24 hour span of time?

Tuitt back from GT

Lynch back from FSU

Ishaq at 4am

Golson...from NC!...

I mean people!...RELAX this is what it is...the building of an empire!...

This place rose from nothing and became the center of the college football universe!

And when we weren't looking, someone forgot to tell us to polish the dome!...

We have fallen....been kicked...stomped at times....but we are 

rising from the ashes!... Moving forward...

But in a game of 

inches the rebuilding of an empire comes a brick at a time!...

But the architect has arrived!

Tomorrow vs Maryland could be a win or a loss...

You can't win 9 games till you win 8!

But regardless, the IRISH are moving forward!...

Don't be dumb enough to let your expectations keep you from enjoying the ride!

  

1 brick at a time!....This is the next step!...

GO IRISH 

And God be with the families of the victims of the Penn State tragedy!
