Sweet Touchdown Jesus!

What does it mean if you play the number two team in the nation, on that team's home field, and blow them out? I guess we'll find out on November 18.

I had an amazing opportunity on Saturday to attend the Michigan - Notre Dame game in South Bend, Ind. I had always wanted to go to a game over there and seeing Michigan play them when the Irish were ranked number two was amazing. Adam, the new guy at work, is a Notre Dame alum - as is his wife, Maria. Adam's mother-in-law works in fundraising for Notre Dame and was able to get me a ticket. I crashed at Adam's parents' house on Friday night and tailgated with him and his in-laws on Saturday before the game. I have to say, the people I was with, as well as all of the Notre Dame fans in general, were incredibly hospitable, even though I made no secret of the fact that I wanted to see Michigan crush the home team. And they did just that.

Mitch Albom said the 47-21 win made it look like Notre Dame's number two ranking was a typo. They flat out killed them and I got to see it in person. Supremely satisfying.
