And no we don't object to ND being called the "Fighting Irish!" Eventhough most of the players aren't Irish. LOL ND still has the toughest schedule in college football.

Irish are looking good and they have the TOUGHEST SCHEDULE. Go IRISH.

U of M & Pitt......overrated. If ND's QB could have hit the side of a barn it would have been a blowout.

For now I'd have to say Texas deserves to be ranked #1 instead of USC.

This coming Saturday the ND plays Michigan State at home. It is their first home game this year. Michigan State has a very though team and has won the last four contests. I will be watching for sure. Go Irish!

It's been a few years since ND was in the top 10. Given the BCS system, can Notre Dame earn an automatic bid to a BCS bowl by going undefeated or finishing say in the top five?

Can they stop USC? I hope so.

They do look good, but I don't think they have the "toughest schedule."

Most Conference schedules are harder.

They have a real shot at a BIG TIME bowl here, but let's not forget:

The combined record of the teams they've beaten so far is 1-3.

Let's hope they come to play every week!
