ESPN is reporting that senior wide out Brandon Tate is done for the season with a torn anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments in his right knee.

That is the amount of turnovers the Irish had on Saturday in Chapel Hill, NC as the Irish fell victims to the North Carolina Tar Heels for the first time in 48 years.

How 'bout those Tar Heels? Love the shots of Cam Sexton with the student section. Could we be looking at the Tar Heels in the Orange Bowl? They remind me of the Kansas Jayhawks last year.

In all the polls there are three teams from the Atlantic Coast Conference ranked. UNC, Virginia Tech and Wake Forest.

The No. 22 Tar heels pulled off an amazing win over Notre Dame Saturday. The game started with a less than impressive Carolina team, with Notre Dame scoring early and keeping the Tar Heels at bay. Carolina was 1-16 against Notre Dame which had many people worried that the boys would not be able to pull out a win in this game. The last time Carolina faced Notre Dame in Chapel Hill was 1975.

After the weeks of not giving any (or very little) love to the Heels I just had to see what she had to say about the awesome game between Notre Dame and North Carolina.

Toledo beat Michigan 13-10. Last year, Appalacian St. beat the Wolverines. This is the first time Michigan has EVER lost to a MAC team. They are off to the worst start in 41 years. Over the past two seasons, Michigan is 7-6 at home. Michigan is now 2-4. Northwestern (5-1), Duke (3-2), Illinois (3-3), UNC (5-1), Stanford (3-3), and Vanderbilt (5-1) all have better records than Michigan.

As anyone that follows this site, in this post it is where I give random tidbits about what I think of the game coming up.

It speaks of five senior wide receivers on the upswing as their college career comes to an end and the NFL scouts will be watching them closely for next year's draft.
