I don't really care how we do against ND next week. Iowa is what matters. yet I'm watching ND and navy and hoping for injuries.

Same here. Herbie just said that NU won't be an easy game for ND, but I could care less about it. NU is so close to Indy, just win the West baby!!

Next week will be fun. Nothing lose to lose, yet nationally revelent.
The good news for NU is, the place will be rocking and mainly a ND crowd. NU is an excellent road team and this for all intents and purposes will be a road game.

Don't feel bad about that.


Division championship and trip to Indy is far, far more important.


We get a trophy and banner, players get rings. You don't get that for beating ND.

Completely mature approach. My inner 3 year old wants both!

I beg to differ. We have bragging rights for 23 years on the line. We have the rights to the lost Shillelagh on the line. The Shillelagh belongs to us. This is a must win for NU.

Heh, next week’s game is definitely your style, E. Total prestige on the national stage. This week’s build up is gonna be fun.

If I had to choose between the next two, I’d much rather beat Iowa and have a shot to knock out Ohio State or Michigan in Indy...but why not get greedy and snag both while we’re at it ; )

That's my point. Wanting this one does not preclude us from wanting to beat Iowa and having a shot at Ohio State (please, we must get Ohio State). And let's definitely be greedy.

I want to do better than last year, because I always want MOAR. An 11 win season requires us to beat ND.
