"Somerset"? Damn, if Spellchick is going to mess with my verbiage she should pay attention the topic. Or maybe she didn't know Notre Dame is "Domers"

Notre Dame. Students and alumni are called "Domers" that comes from the big dome I. The center of the campus. Notre Dame, like the U, has pretty soft schedules. This week when they played some better teams, ND went down and Miami almost did. I just thought maybe they'd be better prepared for big games if they'd been playing stronger teams.

Ah, true for a lot of teams, probably all 5 of the AP Top 7 losers this week.

"Somerset" came from a drunk Spellchick? Domerset?

How long since Miami has been #1?

[O Really]

Miami was #1 on 12/8/2002

Miami was #1 on 12/8/2002

Wow, that's more remote than I would have guessed. I remember the U's dominance.
