  And bad calls happen in sports. That is a fact. I'm sure your teams have benefitted from them before. Did you apologize for the wins or did you just enjoy them? And let's not act like Notre Dame hasn't had any bad calls go against them this season or in prior years. I remember being pissed about the loss to MSU a couple years ago as they didn't get the Little Giants play off before the play clock expired. What did I get back? "Tough, deal with it, stop crying." Well, maybe others should try that.

  I'll take the win. If ND ends up on the other end of a bad call I don't some of the people complaining about that PI call will be upset about it. It is what it is.

  If you're going that route, the 3 teams you listed don't work either.

  Ok! Glad there is another osu fan driving up ND's TV ratings out of pure hate.

  No, it isn't. I'll give you the PI was bad, but there was still a lot of game left and plays that needed to be made. The call in the Stanford game was correct, and it would have only extended the game to a second ot if it were wrong.

  One call doesn't change out come. There are close to 100 plays in a game. Pitt had their chances.
• dat dude

  @NDatRivals Upon further review, No. 2 Chris Brown and No. 2 Bennett Jackson were both on the field when Pitt kicker Harper missed the game-winner.

  Highest rated game on NBC this year. Kind of surprising with Michigan and Stanford games being what they were.
• sjmvsfscs08

  That's because every hater in the country had a raging boner and tuned it when they saw a close game early.

  g/f and I left with 13 min left in the 2nd quarter. Watched the OSU game at a bar. Hope this helps.

  We were just there tailgating, then we were given tickets...we went for a quarter, but honestly neither of us care about Pitt or ND and wanted to keep drinking.
  
  We watched at O'rourkes (sp?), pretty fun bar. Some kid called my g/f a whore, that was fun.
  
  Tailgating was really fun...ND fans seemed pretty nice. Pitt fans (I was with a ton of them) took no shit.

  ah guess that makes sense. at least you had a good time. bar get pretty crazy during 4th quarter and OT?

  Yeah I mean I appreciated the free tickets, and I was glad I was able to go in the stadium, as I like seeing different stadiums...but we thought it was going to be a blowout, it was cold, zero alcohol, and we both are OSU fans. So we just bounced lol
  
  The bar was really fun. The bagpipe guy was hilarious. It was funny to hear people giving up, then going crazy when they won...which is to be expected. It got realllllly packed in the 4th/OT, luckily we had 2 seats right at the front of the bar. Cheap drinks/food, too. So sick of this $5 a drink bullshit I have to deal with in Chicago.
  
  All in all a pretty fun time

  Well, no. It's called watching highlights and seeing a god awful gift from the refs. When all that went down I was at Hilliard Darby.
• dlazz

  I'd probably leave the ND game and go drink instead. Probably a safe move on your part.
