I have watched many Irish games and I can't remember a more incredible comeback. Last year against Michigan State, they made up a large 2nd half deficit but they ended up losing in overtime. After the game, a few Spartan players decided to plant their flag on the field. Yeah, that's classy but I wouldn't expect anything less from them. I found it funny that there were three Spartans guarding the 50-yard-line after the game. How silly is that? Did they honestly think the Irish would stoop to their level and even more, did they think Charlie Weis would allow it?
The game itself was a roller-coaster of emotion for me. Earlier in the week, I wasn't expecting to watch it since USC was the other regional game. Thankfully, ESPN2 carried the game on the West coast. I still have many worries about the team especially on the defensive side but I'm hoping that this was a watershed game and things start to move smoothly. Many people are now speculating on the relative ease of the rest of the schedule until SC but I just want to focus one game at a time. I think that's enough cliches for now.
I watched the Bears game this week and while it wasn't the high-flying scoring machine of the past couple of weeks, they still won and now they've gone undefeated through the first of divisional games.
They go against Seattle on Sunday night in front of a national audience. It should be a great one.
I'm still winless in my main league. It is frustrating because I had the third biggest score for the week but unfortunately I was going up against arch-rival who had the second biggest score. Such is the fantasy life sometimes.
Now, I have some decisions to make since Shaun Alexander is out. I might need to trade for some running back help. I have an offer on the table which looks interesting and it will be tough to not pull the trigger.
