Will Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis' words come back to bite him? Michigan is paying attention, anyway. A YouTube video posted this summer showed Weis speaking at a booster brunch the day of the team's spring game. When Weis addressed the game against Michigan, he spoke of the Wolverines coming with "excuses" and punctuated it by saying, "To hell with Michigan." Wolverines defensive end Tim Jamison said Monday that the quote is "plastered all over our training room." "Whenever he made that comment, we don't know where it came from," safety Stevie Brown told the Detroit Free Press. "When coach Weis used to recruit me, he kind of had an arrogance about him, so I figured it's just him being him. I didn't think too much of it. We're just going to go in there with no excuses, and we're just going to play hard and try to win the game."

This is now a meaningless rivalry. To heck with both Michigan and ND.

Neither of these teams look good this year. I honestly don't know who to pick for this game.

Surprise . . Weiss at a brunch. It would be cheaper paying him an appearance fee rather than give him a free brunch.

How ironic would that be. Normally he's doing all the biting...


The photo was taken at the brunch when some 4 year old girl had the nerve to take the last piece of bacon from the buffet line...

It's too bad the UM isn't familiar enough with the spread yet to smack ND around this year.
(Relax, Charlie. I meant "spread" as in offense, not buffet!)

It's a shame really. This story was TNR fodder 3 months ago. Nothing new here, just FN trying to fire up old flames.

Michigan will win the game, not because they're any good, but because Notre Dame is terrible.

Jesus, do Michigan fans even know their own history?

"To hell with Notre Dame" - Bo Schembechler

Weis was just riffing on an old classic in a room full of boosters. Coaches talk trash all the time in those things.

Oh, the humanity. Get a grip Skunkbears.

Aren't all non-ND fans cheering for Michigan to beat the crap out of Notre Dame?


I wanna see like 45-0 and wouldn't be surprised. Michigan is below average, ND only dreams of being below average.
