Beat Notre Dame
Of the countless reasons I have to dislike Notre Dame, I find this one to be particularly annoying: Notre Dame claims a 16-14-1 "modern era record" against Michigan even though the teams have played 40 times. They don't have any problem counting all the wins they have ever had dating back to 1888 though.
If you're a Michigan Man then the truth is much better: Michigan holds a 23-16-1 lead all time against ND and with the series ending after next year, it sure looks like Michigan is going to maintain a winning record against them for many years to come.
Anybody else got any reasons to dislike Notre Dame? "Because they're big stinky poo poo heads" would be one acceptable answer.
Tomorrow we make it 24-16-1 all time.
Beat Notre Dame.

The players are all pretty milky toast.

They exist

Need i say more?
September 6th, 2013 at 7:54 PM ^
He just told mark may he was being biased.. Uhh...
September 6th, 2013 at 8:44 PM ^
Lou Holtz would still pick ND if they were playing an NFL team
September 6th, 2013 at 7:52 PM ^
Let's win this year and next, then it doesn't matter who is counting

Living on the south side of Chicago, I have a few reasons why I hate Noter.
September 6th, 2013 at 7:55 PM ^
Facebook post about the game and some ND fan said this modern day BS to me . Nothing pre 1908 really counts because no one is alive today from then to see it. He said.
What is wrong with people? I guess the Bill of Rights doesn't count too because it's old...
September 6th, 2013 at 7:55 PM ^
To hell with Notre Dame.
September 6th, 2013 at 8:12 PM ^
Edit: Screw it. I cannot get these videos to start at the right times
September 6th, 2013 at 9:04 PM ^

September 7th, 2013 at 1:33 AM ^
AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME
(I watched them all - good prep for the 2013 UTL)

It might be possible that I dislike Notre Dame fans more than Buckeyes
September 6th, 2013 at 8:15 PM ^
Check yo'self

Have you ever been to Ohio?
September 6th, 2013 at 11:24 PM ^
The hell are you smoking?
September 6th, 2013 at 8:10 PM ^
Remember Damefan1? That should be enough reason.
September 6th, 2013 at 8:16 PM ^
There's just something special about night games isn't there? Incredibly hyped for tomorrow. I can't see this game measuring up to the game two years ago, but let's hope UM can pull this one out a little more comfortably. I have a strong urge to scream GO BLUE or TO HELL WITH THE IRISH. I'm sure it's not just me.

I love when people pick and choose dates that suit their arguments. It just makes so much sense, especially when comparing the success of the college football team you root for.
September 6th, 2013 at 9:50 PM ^
Since 1997, M is undefeated against ND in odd years that are not evenly divisible by 5.
September 6th, 2013 at 9:57 PM ^
Bravo
September 6th, 2013 at 8:22 PM ^
Lou Holtz' spittle and outright homerism. To hell with Notre Dame.
Anyone care to share ND specific hype videos? Haven't seen much yet this week.
September 6th, 2013 at 8:24 PM ^
I live in Southwest Michigan only 30 miles from South Bend. There is nothing worse than dealing with delusional return-to-glory assholes on a day to day basis.
September 6th, 2013 at 8:55 PM ^
and over the years worked with a number of ND alums and students. You seriously understate the level of their delusion. There are many things I miss about living in Michigan, dealing with those clowns is not one.

In my time in GR, AA and even Chicago, nd fans were a bit of a nuisance. But here? It's the team of choice for every mouth breather. I live in Benton harbor and work in st joe...domers are everywhere here. I know a number of incredibly white trash folk with big ND tattoos. I think of that every time an nd fan tries to say they don't have those bandwagon Walmart fans. Lets just say that a lot of Irish caps & shirts last year still had the tags on. And the Te'o apologists were hilarious...he was a victim!
September 6th, 2013 at 8:27 PM ^
That fucking leprechaun. And Rudy.
September 6th, 2013 at 8:32 PM ^
UTL there was this couple behind me cheering for Notre Dame......Wouldn't shut up whenever they were in the lead. While they were up, I bet this guy my T-Shirt for his girlfriend's T-Shirt that we would win. As soon as we scored the winning TD he grabbed her hand and walked her out......SORE LOSER!!!!! I wish I knew how to post a pic.......she was cute
September 6th, 2013 at 8:40 PM ^
She whispered to him after the bet "I have no bra." Of course if I made that bet without my wife's permission shed be so pissed she might just do it out of spite...lol
September 6th, 2013 at 8:32 PM ^
I don't mind NDfans because here in Ohio we are united in our hate for Ohio.
September 6th, 2013 at 8:36 PM ^
To hell with Notre Dame. That is all
September 6th, 2013 at 8:42 PM ^
GO BLUE

This weekend is campout for graduate students at Duke. I was lucky enough to get a Dr's note saying that I couldn't participate which means I still can get tickets to the Michigan @ Duke BB game and I can watch the game from home instead of on an iPad on the back for a uhaul after not sleeping for 24 hours.
September 6th, 2013 at 9:21 PM ^
I am an Irish American. notre dame is french. yet the call themselves the fighting irish. I am offended. . .
September 6th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
The way they butcher the pronunciation of their own name is even worse. Notre Dame should not rhyme with "Motor Shame".
September 6th, 2013 at 10:26 PM ^
But as a French Canadian yuo've given me another reason to hate them!!!! Tabarnac!!!!
September 6th, 2013 at 9:30 PM ^
I just want to beat them. So badly.
September 6th, 2013 at 9:37 PM ^
Michigan: 31
Notre Dame 13
I know history hasn't shown this to be the case. But I think we have more weapons on offensive and options and I think Matison D only allows 1 TD and holds to FGs. Prediction Frank Clark knocks Tommy Reees out if the game.
Hail.

Notre Dame claims a 16-14-1 "modern era record" against
That's just wrong anyway. The series is 14-14-1 since 1978. If they're counting the two games in the 1940s, they're still wrong, because we split them, so it's 15-15-1 since 1942.
In any event, I look forward to the Don Criqui highlight reel being extended after tomorrow's game.
September 6th, 2013 at 10:53 PM ^
Just in case anyone sees Criqui tomorrow, offer him a plate of something. After all, he's been waiting faithfully for that signal for two years now and that has to count for something.
Actually, no....I want another highlight like this from him.
September 7th, 2013 at 7:40 AM ^
That video wasn't available for awhile. Something about copyright (whine,whine) infringement.
Likely the most memorable video clip I've ever seen.
September 6th, 2013 at 9:50 PM ^
To Hell with Notre Dame! Fuck the Irish!! GO BLUE!!! That is all.
September 6th, 2013 at 11:52 PM ^
Beat those bitches...err, maybe let's have our players just beat those other players in the other uniforms. But their fans...are bitches.
Go Blue.

Painting his face purple as we speak.

Go Blue!!
