Notre Dame 20 - USC 16
Saturday, November 27, 2010 at 11:20PM
The despised, loathed, cheating USC team has been vanquished.* Good riddance.
ND's final regular season record: 7-5. Next stop, a bowl to be determined later.
It's definitely time for the celebratory tune:
* The loathing etc. is only from a sports rivalry perspective, of course.

hi dennis
congrats from cologne.
in the early 90ies,i watched the legandary fighting irish every week.
7-5 is good enough for a bowl game?
[DM: Not all bowl games are created equal. There are a LOT of bowl games these days! It won't be a major bowl, but yes, 7-5 is good enough. In fact, 6 wins was enough to make them (or any major college) bowl eligible.]
Congratulations. Only wish we could have completed the upset so I could celebrate with you. I understand the loathing very well.
[DM: Yeah, you guys came unbelievably close. And it was an even worse weekend for Boise State fans. Auburn escapes, Oregon comes from behind, and then they absolutely blow the game to Reno in a choke for the ages.]
Dennis, I have been absent from commenting on football for the most part this season, because Michigan still (as of now) still has Rich Rodriguez for a coach. I am so sick and tired of arguing with all of the people who say that we should give him one more year, sorry but a 7-5 record just doesn't cut it here. Similar to Notre Dame, except that you guys are on the upswing, while we are in limbo.
