It wasn't Weis's fault Michigan had three scores due to 1) a missed pass by a receiver which went for a touchdown 2) a fumble inside the twenty on a return, and 3) a pass picked off and returned to the three when Quinn got hit as he was passing. Brady Quinn was awful today. I have been telling other Irish fans that Quinn is overrated anyway, Weis makes him look good. We all knew the Irish 'D' would be slow and were hoping that the offense could carry us. So far two out of three games the offense has under-performed. Notre Dame struggles when they go away from Walker (just like when they hit a slow spot against USC last year) and they had so many mistakes early that they became one dimensional when they got so far down. Not tough to defend the pass when you only put six in the box! They got a couple of Freshman on defense who are going to be good but they can't play big time college football yet. Just like BIG Sam Young can't yet, but he will. Remember his name. In two years he will be the number one offensive lineman in the country. Weis will pull in the Blue Chips to build up what has been an over achieving unit the last year and three games.

On a side note. I didn't get to see the last part of the game. I was three hours away at my mother-in-laws and when she "whooped" when Michigan went up 40-14 I left. Drove home immediately. She doesn't even like Michigan! She just hates the Irish. Could be because her wonderful Methodist daughter converted. Also, for your information, the last time I watched a game there was last year against Michigan State. I vow to never visit on a Notre Dame Saturday again, even if it is one of my son's birthday parties . . .
