24 FBS Teams Remain Undefeated After Week 4
I found this quite surprising -- that only 24 teams remain undefeated out of the 129 FBS programs -- with about 1/3 of the college football season completed.
Based on this week's schedule -- at a minimum -- there will be 3 fewer undefeated teams come this time next week...

Coaches Poll -- WOW -- We're Not Ranked...
I guess playing a tough opening schedule -- means nothing. Conference coaches are obviously banning together with their voting -- it's all about "conference playoff" money...
Look who's ranked ahead of Notre Dame right now:
- Florida State -- has 2 losses -- hasn't won a game this season
- Mississippi State got beat by 28 to Georgia -- last night
- There are 9 teams ranked ahead of ND with one loss or more

A Story You Must Read...
Former Notre Dame hockey player Riley Sheahan (currently with the Detroit Red Wings) crossed paths with a wonderful man in Grand Rapids five years ago...
Just a FYI -- there are rumors that Riley could be traded to the Stanley Cup Champion Pittsburgh Penguins -- any moment now -- which would reunite him with three former Notre Dame players; Bryan Rust, Ian Cole and Thomas DiPauli...

The "Stories" Behind the "Fighting Irish" of ND
I find it rather ironic that the storyteller in this video is none other than a Brit by the name of Simon Whistler who lives in the Czech Republic... Why would he think to tell this story?

Domer Jarron Jones Now a Dallas Cowboy!
Former Notre Dame defensive tackle Jarron Jones -- turned NFL offensive tackle -- is now earning a pay-check from his THIRD NFL TEAM!
It was announced today that Jarron was signed by the Cowboys to their practice squad.
Jarron sure has picked up some frequent flyer miles in the process. He started out playing for the New York Giants, he was released by the Giants at the end of Training Camps and was picked up by the Seattle Seahawks -- the Seahawks released him a week later and now Jarron is with the Cowboys...
