Even Notre Dame Fans admit UT rocks

Yeah, baby! Flashing the Horns! Hook 'em!

Wies is running his mouth again and the video above caught him saying, "To hell with Michigan"   Them fightin' words...

I also never heard the endorsement Bo Schembechler made in 2006 about the Wolverines playing the Fighting Irish:"We don't need Notre Dame. They need us more than we need them. Hell, we're playing all these Big Ten teams. When Penn State came into the league, then we should do everything we can to get this Notre Dame series over with. Now that's the way I feel. I would rather have an intersectional game than a Midwest game. Play Southern Cal. I don't care. Play Texas ... somebody like that. But not Notre Dame."

 

We should start a collection of all the various celebrities, movies, concerts, videos, etc. proclaiming UT supremacy.

as amazing as it sounds, I think Schembechler has a point

Michigan has the largest alumni association in the world. They have to try to find a way to make sure every single student at Michigan has the ability to attend at least one game during their four years in Ann Arbor, demand for tickets in the Big House is so high. There may be some “we were a big-time football program winning championships before Knute even arrived in South Bend” chest-thumping going on there, but there is some truth to that claim. Their monetary success in football is not contingent on playing Notre Dame.
Playing Notre Dame doesn’t help their recruiting, while establishing an intersectional game with a UCLA or a Southern Cal or even a Southeastern or Southwestern opponent would be a huge boon to their recruiting.
I had never seen that quote before, though, so thanks for pointing it out.

did anyone else notice all the red and yellow jerseys that were sporting “HOOK’EM” in the rose bowl when Texas whipped USC…and they did it all throughout the year. i think they might have all known that it was inevitable.
