The offense, defense, special team and anything else that could go wrong for a football team did for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish on Saturday as the win less Michigan Wolverines embarrassed the Irish 38-0 in the Big House.
The embarrassment began on the first snap of the game as Notre Dame center John Sullivan snapped the ball over the head of freshman running back Armando Allen. Allen jumped on the ball at the Irish one-yard-line. Let the circus show begin.
The Irish lost 14 yards on the play and the negative rushing yards on the season continued to add up.
By the end of the game, highly talented freshman Notre Dame quarterback Jimmy Clausen was pulled from the game probably in hopes to save his life. The Michigan defense battered the young signal caller all day long.
After the game, head coach Charlie Weis said he was embarrassed.
You are not alone Charlie. I am embarrassed too but I stand next to you and the rest of the young men you take to battle next week against Michigan State.
Keep working hard and things will get better.

OK perspective, but on a Tuesday column, maybe you could give us a little more insight about what others are saying about the team.
