Sprout and Eric,
During my bye week, I dried out from drinking the pain away from the L in Chapel Hill. Also, I did a lot of research on how bad Ty has been throughout his career. His one Rose Bowl season included a loss to San Jose St and a beatdown from Texas. It was pre-Carroll Pac-10 and they made the Rose Bowl at 8-4. My main focus is the Washington years. Ty has had a 6 game losing streak in every year at UW, bringing his record in Seattle to 11-31. The glaring stat is that Ty has 6 wins versus Pac-10 opponents during his reign of terror (05-present). Weis has had 7 wins versus Pac-10 teams in the same length of time. Ty is on thin ice out west and this mantra holds true from his time at ND….If you don’t get wins, there will be no Ty’s.

@Todd: Don’t have too much advice for you. There is a ton of different stuff to see on Game Day around campus. Outside of all the tailgating – the players walk from the chapel to the stadium is pretty cool to see, along with the band marching into the stadium. It’s really just a special atmosphere walking around campus. Enjoy your Schlitz.

@Jack and Sprout: If I get into a rhythm early I can hit more than 3. Hopefully the same can be said for Walker.

Walker is 3 for 12 for his career outside of 40 yards…pretty damn terrible.

Oh man… I love that idea. Over the past two years, how many 40+ attempts does Walker have? Let’s just take that average and we’ll get Eric out on the court this weekend.

Out of 10 attempts, who would make more?

Brandon Walker from 40 yards out

or…

Eric shooting from half-court

I can hit a reverse-layup. And if left open from the corner behind the arc I probably can shoot 45%. Those are Damon Jones’ like numbers and we all know he is the greatest shooter of all-time.
