What a play!

I'm still having a hard time getting over Michigan State's overtime football victory against Notre Dame last Saturday. I never expected MSU to execute a fake field goal play with the game on the line. But execute they did -- to perfection -- and, I might add, much to the dismay of Fighting Irish faithful worldwide. I think Brian Kelly, his staff, players and even the Notre Dame Marching Band are all still standing motionless, mouths agaped, along the sidelines of Spartan Stadium. Someone ought to tell them they have a game this Saturday. I never knew stoic, serious Mark Dantonio had it in him to pull off such a surprise attack. I don't think Kelly and his staff thought so, either. Of course, former Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz, now a college football analyst, said afterward the Irish were well-prepared for the fake kick. Uh huh. Sort of how General Custer was "well-prepared" at the Battle of Little Big Horn...I'm just sayin'...
