The Fighting Irish of ND will once again open up its season aganst the mighty Red Raiders of Baylor Thursday night @ Davenports Finley Stadium.......@ 2030 the pigskin will b punched into the air beginning the last game in this 2 years series........last season Chattanoogas D2-AAA jugernaut were responsible for the only blimmish on the Irishs record until matching up against the co-opers of Luzianne in the Championship Contest.......

...ND will b fielding its youingest team since Fant first took over the helm of the Irish......it will take a miracle to upset the Kakhi wearin community on Suck Creek...and a upset it would b......just maybe

...Booger just sayin

Historically speaking it would be an upset but this year I think no. This is a 50-50 coin flip. Baylor is very young. Starting several sophomores. I’m actually tempted to pick ND but Baylor always finds a way to get the most when they have the least. It will be a good game or ND will blow it open. One of the two. Depending on how sound Baylor plays defensively.

Irish by 14.  May be young and not very deep but have a nasty attitude this year.  I predict ND punches them in the mouth early and the Baylor players will be looking for their Signal and Lookout Mountain moms to come save them

If ND wins it won’t be because they have a nastier attitude it will be just because they are better. The level of competition Baylor plays every year is too good for them to be soft. 

In fact last year ND was the 7th best team on the Raiders schedule at best  BA, MBA, McCallie, Ensworth, Marist, Knoxville Catholic were all much better than ND last year.  

That being said after seeing Baylor in the jamboree they will need to come out a lot sharper to beat ND again. As I said I expect ND to be better and on paper Baylor to be worse than last year. If Baylor doesn’t win this one it could be a 1 or 2 win season with the brutal schedule they have. 

I expect this game to be much closer.

The key will be for ND  to jump out on top and stay on top with Baylor constantly playing catch-up! If it's late it will force Baylor to take risks which could result in an upset!! Good luck Irish!

Baylor numbers looked off at the Jamboree. They usually have about 90 kids on the sideline.

Baylor’s numbers are a little lower. High 60’s I think. But over the past four years Baylor has had no more than high 70’s on the roster.

Absolutely right.

I'm going with ND in a thriller. 

[Booger]

and a thriller it would b....probably upset of the year in the chattanooga area ......very tuff to pull off cause its a big bad D2-AAA team with more than 2.21574 X the number of players players to rotate
