Saw the Cardinal play live last month and they are impressive. Their offense is impossingly balanced and strong. Luck is money, Gerhart is a beast, and the OL bulldozes at will. The defense isn't talent-studded but plays hard and gets the most out of it.

Harbaugh has done a marvelous job and out here in PacTen country I'm hearing ND will go after him pretty hard once this Weis thing blows over.

I think Stanford blows away Notre Dame.

Really, I don't understand guys like that.

First, you would think they would be too busy in life to take so much time to just keep on eating to look like that? And it must be so inconvenient in so many ways to live every day? I guess they just don't care how they look!

ND's buyout of Weis: $20 million!!!

Now that's some smart business sense in negotiating that contract in 2005!!!!

That will be negotiated down somehow.

Next up, Brian Kelly from Cincy.
