Fate..

Second and goal from the seven. Notre Dame decides to pass. The play is broken, and the quarterback is sacked for a loss of nine. Now they are looking at third and goal from the sixteen. Most teams would look to set up the field goal, the great ones already have three or four plays that they are confident will work and will put six on the board. Fate benefits those that are willing, those that know they will not lose.

Florida knows they can win every game they play in.

USC knows they are the best.

Ohio State knows they are the best in the Big Ten (lol, damn the SEC is fast).

Notre Dame needs to come to this conclusion. They need to believe that they can score on every drive. We have the fire power to score with everytone. They need to know that there is no difference between third and one, and third and eight. It should make no difference to them. They can score from anywhere on the field at anytime. Anytime....

Fate, as it has it, comes to the other side of the ball. The defense has to be able to take over games this year. Can we stop USC, can the D walk out on the field and KNOW they can hold the other team to a three and out with time running out. I think that the defensive backs are up to the challenge. I think that the ends can get after the quaterback. The linebackers are actually skilled this year, and they have some speed this year as well. Don't believe me? Ha ha ha, run a toss strong side.

The FATE of this years team could be on the defense...what say you...CHEERS!
