The Nudge had Notre Dame as not only a Five Star pick, but amazingly I predicted that Notre Dame QB Jimmy "The Emu" Clausen would throw for five TD's. Can you believe that, I actually predicted the number of passing TD's that he would throw. There's only one problem. Prior to the game kicking off, The Nudge got cold feet and actually went against his instinct and completely changed his pick. I was thoroughly distraught. But ND looked good playing against The Warriors at home. Their secondary looked like they fell asleep in the first five minutes of the game and never woke up. The FrontButt pulled it of, it was a must win for him, I will give him credit where it is due.
I have to tell you, this Fighting Irish team is young, real young. If they could put together a performance like that again next year, and The Nudge is thinking that they can, their going to have at least 9 wins and go to a pretty good bowl game in 2010. Even though my original pick was a Five Star play for ND to cover, fair is fair. And shame on me for thinking that the Haywood move would play a detrimental role in the game. So far for the bowl season, The Nudge missed on the TCU cover by two measly points and on the one star, stay away play on Hawaii. Bringing the total to bowl season as being 6 covers, 2 losses (a one star and a two star) no biggy. Look out for The Nudge's weekend bowl picks. Outside of the West Virginia game, the rest are locks. FSU (three star play) is going to trounce. So I'll leave you off with some photos of the Nudgettes of Tallahassee. Enjoy. Stay classy Nudgites.
We're gonna cover, in a big way Honey!
You think Christian Ponder is getting any of this grade-A Nudgette?
