This was a difficult championship weekend to process.

Some thoughts after Notre Dame ensured a USC Heisman Trophy for the 4th time in the last 20 years: One thing matters the next 8 months All that matters from here to August is getting a QB. Any QB. It has to be done. ND can't win like this, not at the level it needs [...]

At one point during Saturday's 44-0 obliteration of Boston College, the NBC broadcast crew mentioned that Marcus Freeman grew almost angry when discussing ND's tendency to play down to its worst opponents.

My guess is that if you're over the age of 30 this weekend's game for Notre Dame was simply Navy things. No big deal. Playing in this rivalry every damn year we've seen so many variations of gritty Navy coming back and hanging around to make things close. The veterans among us were probably bored [...]
I guess that was a win. Notre Dame won 35-32. I think. My head exploded at some point during the fourth quarter and I spent the final few minutes of the game picking it up and gluing it back together. The Irish more or less dominated the first half, although it wasn't until the final [...]

My first reaction to tonight's win? "We've got ourselves a (blankity blank) head football coach." Notre Dame didn't just beat #4 Clemson Saturday, 35-14. They pushed the Tigers around. They did the only things they could do to win when Clemson knew exactly what those things were, and they did them spectacularly well. That's special. [...]
