SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Four touchdowns?!?Earlier today on ESPN Gameday Lee Corso predicted that the Irish would take down their Catholic nemesis, Boston College, by four touchdowns. Not so fast, my friend.
Vegas has moved the Notre Dame line down progressively this week, from 10 points to 7-1/2. I don't know exactly whom to believe--the bookies or Corso--but I do know that the Irish have trailed at halftime in three of their past four games. And that they've trailed in the second half in every game this year except the season-opener at Nevada.
You probably want to know about the weather. Nastiest of the season so far, although the rain is little more than a drizzle. However, it's windy and it feels about 40 degrees out there. Not a few fans have broken out their hunting gear a couple weeks early to fend against the cold.
Seen out and about last night: former offensive tackle Ryan Harris, now a starter for the undefeated Denver Broncos, is in town as it is their bye week. Also spotted Chris Zorich and former hoopster Tom Timmermans while doing "field research".
I'll be here all day on the old Twitter. Which reminds me of a good line that Desmond Howard got off this morning: "Kellen Moore has enough time in the pocket to send out a tweet."
Be back at kickoff.
