EAT THAT, DOMERS!

9 in a row!
Can't hang with the big boys. There you have it. Notre Dame is just not that good! Do you realize that not only have they lost nine straight bowl games, but since Charlie Weis has taken over they have yet to beat a top 20 team? And somehow, they keep making it to BCS bowls where they get destroyed and I giggle like a schoolgirl.

I only watched the first half, but Notre Dame football was summed up in about the first 5 minutes. Now, Jeff Samardzija is good, but he's also sort of a dick. He constantly taunts and over celebrates, but it never gets called because, well, he plays for Notre Dame. Right at the beginning, he caught a pass and was tackled, and he jumps up, throws the ball at the defender and clearly says something explicit. Of course, he gets a flag and acts all incredulous. My favorite part is that the announcers say "The frustration must be getting to them, that's very out of character for Samardzija." What? Have you ever watched Notre Dame? He does that all the time!

Within the next minute, CB Ndukwe blasted an LSU receiver with a obviously late hit and got a flag, making two flagrant personal fouls in about a minute of play.

My favorite moment was late in the second quarter. Samardzija went deep, and Quinn threw to him even though he was completely covered. Samardzjia takes his eyes off the ball, gives the defender a shove (which was total offensive pass interference), then the football hits him in the head. He immediately starts bitching to the ref, looking for a pass interference call, when it should have been called on him!

In summary, I hate Notre Dame and am LSU's biggest fan for a day.

I think we are all glad to see ND go down. Hope you are having a good last couple of days with the parents!
