Notre Dame is trying to blow $14 million

[Awsi Dooger]

Gad, they just botched a chip shot FG that would have provided a 9 point margin. Then Stanford connects with a bomb down to the 4 yard line. Less than 2 minutes left and the Irish leading 30-24.

1. Go Irish!

:D :D

[Awsi Dooger]

3. I want them to hold on also

College football is better with Notre Dame on top.

Oh boy, Stanford just scored. But plenty of time for Brady Quinn to prove all the hype is legit.

Notre Dame has missed three short kicks tonight so a winning FG will be anything but automatic.

2. ND's kicker has had a BAD night!

I'm on the Oregon bandwagon anyway. One of my best friends went there, and they are getting NO BCS love.

4. TD Irish!

Right down the field for Brady Quinn. The little Stanford CBs have spent more time complaining than covering.

Anyone watching can see how much this game means to Notre Dame. It's a cold night in Palo Alto but visible sweat on Charlie Weis' upper lip during that drive.

Still 55 seconds left for Stanford but after the 2-point conversion they'll need a TD for OT. 38-31 Irish.

5. Sounds like a great game

wish I could see it. That kid Smardjidiza is having a great game/season

7. He's had a terrific game

A couple of TDs early then a big play on the last Notre Dame drive, putting the Irish past midfield.

Game over! Irish head to the BCS.

One of the dumbest plays you'll ever see by the Stanford QB. He spiked the ball on 3rd and 19 with 15 seconds left from his own territory. Game ended with a sack on the following play.

8. 9 catches for 195 yards

quinn and walker had great games too. awesome

6. He spiked it?

I thought Stanford kids were smart.

9. Notre Dame WON!!!!!

WOOO HOOOOO

[charlie and algernon]

10. that was a hell of a game

hehe, now i can breathe again.



and what the hell was that lalalalalalala i heard everytime ND had the ball, anyone else find that deeply annoying?

11. Probably the Stanford band and student section

By far the most creative nutcases in the country. They make the Duke basketball crowd look like businessmen on a commuter plane.

It'll get even more loud and loony in the future. Stanford is tearing down the stadium pronto in favor of a smaller version but with fans much closer to the field.

12. but it sounded like it was just one guy

unnless the student section has the lalalalalala thing so rehearsed that they sound like one person.

It really sounded like a guy near one of the TV cameras was doing s voodoo thing. it was really weird.

[Awsi Dooger]

13. Could have been one guy

I didn't hear the sound and was just guessing. Since it was Stanford Stadium I defaulted to their band and student section because I've been there so many times and seen/heard the wild stunts. It's gotten them in trouble a few times, including the band barred from halftime performances at games, both football and basketball
