Sounds like something Oklahoma fans experience right before kickoff.Is soonerrhea like diarrhea, except sooner?

When was the last time Wake Forest defeated TSISB?I think Northwestern and Wake Forest are very comparable coming into the season. Thorson coming off the ACL injury and replacing Jackson were the main reasons that I put Wake just slightly above this game.
Isn’t every game for ND a non/conference tilt?Jason (aka Soonerrhea) really should have titled his article, "My Man Crush for Notre Dame."
I guess it's nice to see a fan of the so called powerhouse programs respect an otherwise lightly regarded program after one decent season, whereas NU seems perennially underestimated although we have been to a bowl (a low bar) 8 of the past ten years, winning 3 of the last 4.I think Northwestern and Wake Forest are very comparable coming into the season. Thorson coming off the ACL injury and replacing Jackson were the main reasons that I put Wake just slightly above this game.
Do ya think? 7 out of 20 games!Jason (aka Soonerrhea) really should have titled his article, "My Man Crush for Notre Dame."
Unfortunately for Wake, their starting QB is suspended for the first 3 games for violations of unspecified team rules. I'd be willing to bet that Wake has a better record than NU this season though, as they should easily beat Tulane and Towson even without him. BC will be difficult.I think Northwestern and Wake Forest are very comparable coming into the season.

Why is the Notre Dame-Wake Forest game ranked above the ND-NU game? Is Wake a more interesting opponent than us? I don't think so. Especially when you factor in the NU unbeaten streak against ND.
“Unbeaten streak.” Two takes over 25 years? LOL.
Trivia question. When was the last time NU beat ND at home?
If ND would play us more, it would be more than two.“Unbeaten streak.” Two takes over 25 years? LOL.

When was the last time Notre Dame had the balls to actually come to Evanston?
If ND would play us more, it would be more than two.
I realize this was a somewhat rhetorical question, but the last two games in Evanston were in my undergrad years and NU lost by a combined score of 97-3. I was at those games and my memory is that the games weren't as close as the score would indicate.....When was the last time Notre Dame had the balls to actually come to Evanston?
Yeah, the LAST 3 games in Evanston were;
48-0
49-3
37-0
ND is terrified of Evanston.
You realize ND plays everybody, everywhere, right?
They play “home ganes” agsinst teams in their home states. They schedule home & homes with Bama, Texas, Oklahoma, Georgia, etc...with their normal USC, Michigan, Stanford, etc. And now rotate FSU, Clemson, Miami, etc...
ND isn’t afraid to play anywhere.

You have difficulty with math skills?Ok? So if ND & NU played every year since 1995, how many would it be?
You failed to list Navy, Army, Air Force, Vanderbilt, Syracuse Wake Forest and that powerhouse Testicle Tech.Yeah, the LAST 3 games in Evanston were;
48-0
49-3
37-0

When did he try to cancel it? News to me.If ND isn’t afraid to play anywhere, why did your AD attempt at getting the ND @NU Game moved to Soldier Field or even cancelling it? Glad our AD told you guys one word.......NO
ND will play anywhere, they opt for neutral sites for a couple of thier road games each year.If ND isn’t afraid to play anywhere, why did your AD attempt at getting the ND @NU Game moved to Soldier Field or even cancelling it? Glad our AD told you guys one word.......NO
I follow this pretty closely. You are the only person I’ve read saying that this happened. I remember people speculating they might try, but never saw confirmation that the speculation was accurate. It’s true they were looking for games to cancel after their agreement with the ACC was completed, but I thought Northwestern was not a game they looked to cancel. But, hey, who knows, you may be correct.ND attempted to skate out of it about when they cancelled UM a few years back.
Notre Dame is just afraid to join a conference.Yeah, the LAST 3 games in Evanston were;
48-0
49-3

More like afraid to give up the TV $$$'s from NBC......Notre Dame is just afraid to join a conference.
