In 2011, Lynch had a Clowney-like year at Notre Dame. As far fetched as it may sound, it is completely accurate. Unfortunately, Lynch decided to transfer to USF because he was home sick. The transfer made him ineligible to play in 2012. Lynch will return next season as one of the most dominant forces in college football.

The final verdict on Manti Te'o is up to you

   The stories Manti Te'o have told to not only teammates but fans and media have been perceived to be drawn out after knowing he was a victim of an online hoax. On September 12th, Te'o exclaimed that not only his grandmother passed away, but also his girlfriend 'Lennay Kekua'. He provided the media with exactly what they wanted. Te'o asserted that Lennay had died from Leukemia.

Manti Te'o Legend Or Myth?

Have you ever watched an episode of CSI or SVU and thought to yourself, well that was bizarre? The Manti Te'o story has the making of one of those episodes. Sitting back and watching this story unfold, was some of the craziest things I have ever read or heard. It was so bizzare one had to wonder if the story was a hoax itself. Well, unfortunately for Manti Te'o it isn't, and it is turning out to be

Tide rolls over Notre Dame to win BCS Championship 42-14

It is designed to leave the best for last, but the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame did not seem to be in the same weight class with Alabama. The Crimson Tide scored early and often putting up a 28-0 shut out in the first half. They went on to win 42-14.

Everyone that picked Notre Dame to win, including myself, felt it would be a low scoring contest due the Irish defense led by Manti Te'o. The most decorated linebacker in recent history looked more like a bull fighter than a brick wall as the ESPN broadcast made sure to highlight is missed tackles.

The Alabama offense, led by quarterback A.J. McCarron  with running backs Eddie Lacy and T.J. Yeldon, had a total of 529 yards; 265 rushing and 264 passing. Talk about a balance attack.

The Irish offense could not overcome the Tidal Wave defense of Alabama rushing for only 32 total yards. 20 of those yards coming from one long run by Riddick.

This makes Alabama, under Nick Saban, a 3-time BCS Champion in only 4 years. Nick Saban also earns a reported $310,000 bonus on top of his $5.3 million dollar salary for the appearance and win.

Notre Dame to move the ACC from Big East; $5 Million Penalty is Cheap


Notre Dame has decided that it will now play all sports excluding football in the ACC, not the Big East. The Big East is requiring the Fightin' Irish to pay a $5 million dollar penalty, when both Syracuse and Pittsburgh payed $7.5 million dollars after a negotiating to join the ACC also. They will start in June of 2013.

The football program will remain an independent. The school tried to align the football program with the Big 10 back in 1999, but the alumni base would not have it. Besides, why turn down a lucrative deal with NBC?
