I don't mean to tempt the gods of football upsets but...

This would seem to be the last difficult game on the schedule. Whatever is left of Notre Dame seems paltry compared to what it looked like at the beginning of the season. Miami looks like a dumpster fire (as per usual). I'm not going to be concerned about the Cuse at home and certainly not the Coots.I would think this would be the game to come in firing on all cylinders, take the crowd out of the game early, get the job done, and move into the closing part of the season. Maybe I'm wrong but nothing about the rest of the schedule concerns me at all.

I'm with ya most of the way. I do think Dino could play us tough because if he's undefeated coming to death valley they will play with nothing to lose and everything to win. But worried I am not past FL ST.

I've always liked Dino. I could see him coming in hot. That's if they beat state.

Anybody Can Be Beat; if not focused!

I know the team will be focused.
I hope they don't look down on the schedule and think "easy win"!
Those players are on scholarship too!
Remember this; no matter a team's schedule, if you have a certain reputation as a National Contender, "you will always get that team's best effort"!
*you are their Super Bowl.
*you are their National Championship game.
*you could make their whole season.
So, you can't take any of them for granted.

We will find out tomorrow about Syracuse. They haven't really played anyone yet with their best wins being against Louisville and Purdue. If they beat State, then next week's game will be HUGE and I will be more of a believer that they are for real.

We can win every game left on our schedule but we could also lose any game. That is football and always has been.

I can assure you at ND will not be easy .
They might not have as much talent as the past but they are big and physical.

Oh yeah, we get past this game and it's basically a sprint to the finish line (post-season). Syracuse, while a surprise being undefeated so far, hasn't played much competition so I'm not sold on them. I'd say they're really on the same level as BC whenever we do play them and I say that respectfully. Good QB and a good solid skill player at RB. Notre Dame will be tricky because I don't even know what Notre Dame is right now and they're just keeping their head above water at the moment. One team that I worry could catch us sleeping would be Louisville just because of Cunningham.
