by Tommy Lawlor * Notre Dame LB Manti Te’o is playing terrific football and it looks like he made a great decision to return for his Senior season. Against Michigan he had 8 total tackles, a TFL, and 2 INTs. … Continue reading →

by Tommy Lawlor * Pitt RB Ray Graham suffered a nasty knee injury last year.  He’s back on the field this year and has played pretty well.  He made some lateral cuts last week vs Va Tech.  I was impressed … Continue reading →
