"You could tell they were very uncomfortable and we were coming after them every play," Oliver said. "I don't think they were very quick with their reads. We had them all messed up."

If Jamal Lewis wasn't racing in from his safety spot for one of his team-high eight tackles, linebacker Phillip Wheeler was creating havoc underneath as defensive lineman Darrell Robertson was having his way with an inexperienced Irish offensive line.

Robertson admitted that as the game wore on, Tech defenders started a competition amongst themselves about who would make the next big hit. There were many takers.

"The person who doesn't get it next was the one being ragged on," said Robertson, who finished with six tackles and 1.5 sacks. "We had to handle business and then start having fun out there.

We really have something special on defense this year. I'm looking forward to BC and seeing what we'll do against an experienced QB.

Saw a video with ND announcers. In the first, second and third qtr, the analyst stated " they just don't see this kind of hitting in practice" Weis is trying to run the ball to settle them down. Don't think it worked.

I was very excited about beating those mackerel-snappers like we did but we need to temper our enthusiasm with the fact that the fish eaters were not very good at all. We need to score 35 by half time this weekend and let the second teamers get some more work.

Yes I agree with LFD! 84-0 against Samford on Saturday. We can do it, but with CCG, it will never happen especially since he coached at Samford back in the 80's.

If we score 84 we will have left our starters in far too long.
