Either way, Brian Kelly's face is purple.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:47 PM ^
Who is Kelly waving at? He should really concentrate on coaching the game.

All year all I wanted was for ND to stop being so lucky and it never happened. Nebraska got their due in the B1G title game. Notre Dame is hopefully getting their due here
January 7th, 2013 at 8:47 PM ^
January 7th, 2013 at 8:47 PM ^
I want a purple Brian Kelly by the end of the 1st Q
January 7th, 2013 at 8:47 PM ^
Wow. ND, the team that got virtually every break all year to get where they are, then 2 successive calls go against them that could definitely affect this game.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:47 PM ^
Oh shut it ND. You've had quite a few favorable calls over...history.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:48 PM ^
I'm happy about it. I don't care that that call will be referenced by Domers for the next 50 years as the reason they didn't win the 2012 National Title. You know it will be referenced for the next 50 years at least

Another blown tackle by T'eo, just like the TD. Dude is good but soooo overrated.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:48 PM ^
That was a good call.
- The SEC
January 7th, 2013 at 8:48 PM ^
but that was a catch and that was no penalty on the ensuing punt
January 7th, 2013 at 8:48 PM ^
Expert ref, not much of an expert.

Which shade of purple will we see tonight?

In a few years our O-line is gonna be that good.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:51 PM ^
I guess someone doesn't know what redundant means.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:50 PM ^
Nothing against Teo, he's a great kid, has a great pedigree, and I would love to have him, but he's showing he's not as good as he was advertised all year.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:52 PM ^
Is Manning any less a great player because he had a bad game versus the Saints? You can't judge a guy on one game.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:57 PM ^
January 7th, 2013 at 8:50 PM ^
January 7th, 2013 at 8:50 PM ^
I wish we had more run plays to the outside. I'm jealous.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:53 PM ^
ND fans are already conceding defeat, wanting to shut this whole thing down and turn it into a "woe is us" parade.
Take your beating and enjoy it.

The Lions OL is okay. It's the defense that is atrocious.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:51 PM ^
Stanford was robbed of a game tying touchdown in double overtime against ND. They also got flagged for a pass interference in the 4th quarter that was invisible.
Against a crappy Pitt team, ND was offsides on Pitt's chip shot field goal attempt which would have won the game in double overtime yet never got flagged and the Panthers never got the rekick attempt. There was also a 4th quarter phantom interference on Pitt that set up ND's game tying score. Not to mention the ref missed a ND player punching a Pitt player and no punishment was ever handed to them.
So you keep booing, ND fans. There is such a thing called karma.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:53 PM ^

January 7th, 2013 at 8:55 PM ^
Love love love !!
January 7th, 2013 at 8:57 PM ^
ND fans should take solace in the fact the refs put them into the MNC in the first place. I didn't hear any of them complain about Stanford's non-TD in overtime.
January 7th, 2013 at 9:01 PM ^
Ok so that interference call was for the stanford non-td. The fumble's (if it stands, even though it looks like he's down) for the phantom PI. They have quite a few more bad calls against their favor to go so that they'd be square with the football karma.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:52 PM ^
I didn't realize Bama's o-line will need to replace 3 guys next year, although they'll probably just reload.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:52 PM ^
Brent Musberger is already making me want to punch cute little babies.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:53 PM ^
Not the cute ones! Punch the ugly ones first.
