If PJ wants to elevate the program this is his best chance this week.

Wins over ugag, clemson, and f$u will get us in the orange bowl but a win at a top ten ranked ND is a rare opportunity.

we really need to take care of business this week.

Whew! Good thing you posted this. We nearly overlooked the whole "meaningful game" thing. Thanks, bud :biggthumpup:
 
I sure hope we aren't looking ahead toward Duke instead. This is a classic trap game.
 
Big game on national stage yes.....but a very distant second to the ACCCG going up against an undefeated FSU with all the national attention they were getting.
 
I fully expect ND to be a great barometer for ACC play. We know they can hang with Virginia. Perhaps we can pull out a win here and improve before we face Duke and UNC. Starting 2-0 in conference would put us in a good position heading into the meat of our schedule.

This. The ACC schedule is a meat grinder. I hope we're not looking ahead to Duke.

@ND, @Duke, UNC, @Clemson, Pitt, FSU, @UVA

then a short break

and a brutal finish
VT, @Miami, uga

True dat....we went into that night with a long but believable shot at the playoffs if everything broke right. This ND game is a big barometer, but is a just a step on the journey. All our goals are still out there regardless of what happens in South Bend.
 
The national stage? Are you freaking kidding me?! You know what separates a victory over Notre Dame from a victory over Georgia? Georgia is the better ranked team! You know what separates Clemson from Notre Dame? Three slots in the rankings. FSU from Notre Dame? Only one slot!

If you ain't on this train yet then stay the heck off and quit this piddledicking, one-foot-in-one-foot-left-to-prove garbage. Notre Dame just took a Hail Mary to beat UVA. UVA!!! This ain't Alabama; this ain't Ohio State; this is UVA. This is the team that hasn't beaten their rival in 12 years! They haven't competed for their division since divisions were created, and they haven't won the conference since 1989. Half of the people on this board weren't even born yet in 1989!!

Do you know who our head coach is? Do you know just how smugly he exacts his vengeance? Do you know that he has been waiting since 2006, the year Brian Vangorder dissolved our head coach's offense at the school where our coach won multiple national championships, to cut Vangorder's head off and mount it on his wall?

We are going to run roughshod on Notre Dame. And when we are done, I don't want any of you doubters on my hype train. You can keep your pessimism to yourself, because we are bigger and better than Georgia. We are bigger and better than Clemson. We went toe-to-toe with FSU's most decorated class in school history, and we are better than them today. And we are better than Notre Dame. We have the depth, we have the talent, and we have the coach.

Go Jackets. Wreck doubters.

All I have to say is watch the second half of the Orange Bowl. The UND game should look a little better than that for Tech fans.
