The difference between week 1 - 3 is ND getting teams in 3rd and long...well and offense production

That, and we had numerous 2nd and short yardage. Running game was obviously dominant. Love’s speed and cutting ability are really elite, and Price is really good between the tackles. Both read the plays as they are developing exceptionally well. Given Leonard’s and Angeli’s and Minchey’s additional success running, you have to conclude that Purdue really sucked, and can’t get too excited over our performance. We won’t beat good teams until we develop a complimentary passing game, and we are far from this three games in.

Michigan vs Texas

Why are you on a ND board? I could care less what Michigan boards says about ND
I am on this Board because I am a huge fan of ND. I want ND to win. I think ND is going to win out because of the lost. They are going to play the rest of the season with a chip on their shoulder. The team also understands that there is no room for error. Go Irish...

Ross Ade - Bermuda

Online it says Ross Ade Stadium has a cold weather Bermuda and they're the only team to install a Bermuda in the Big 10 as it's typically a warm season grass.

Bermuda is a very dense growth self repairing grass with stolons and rhizomes where as typical grass fields in the north are Kentucky blue grass which has some repairing abilities overseeded with Rye.

I just noticed how well the grass held up in middle September and had to look up what they were using.

I wonder if South Bend is too far north to give this a shot.

Ga barely escapes

Worse loss than '78 season opening three-nothing loss against Missouri? Defending National Champions (us), ranked #5 preseason (coincidence? I think not), Joe Montana at starting QB, Missou coming off a 4-7 season?

It's all kinda relative, eh?
Absolutely worse than 1978. Missouri was not a MAC team, Missouri went on to finish 8-4, ranked 15th in the final AP poll and beat #2 Nebraska at Nebraska
