From the outside, we 'see' a lot of things and we feel a lot of things. As fans, that's our job.
As bloggers, we offer our perspective.
But just a touch of reality: we're not on the field, we're not in the locker room after the game (until now with the video below), so we don't feel what this team feels. We don't experience what they experience, and sometimes it's important to take a step back and simply enjoy a W. Really glad that the collective harrumphing of the ND fanbase isn't something you see in the locker room. In the locker room, they dance...
It's clear that there is love in that locker room. There is pride, and there is fun. Really glad to see it, and really hope it continues. These guys deserve it.

Amen, Biscuit.
Two questions:
1) Who got the game ball? Is that Jonas Gray leading them in the fight song?
2) How long will Diaco be able to chest bump players who outweigh him by 100 pounds and who are wearing shoulder pads before he breaks a rib? Love his energy!
2)

1) Yeah, that’s Jonas.
2) Forever. That man is made of heart, wisdom and steel. Ain’t no break in him.

Man, it’s cool to have that kind of access, cheers to ND Media for that.
And great point that their perspective is much different than ours, and they are clearly a group that believes in each other, and the mission.
Go Irish!!!

Good to see the team recognizes that a win is a win is a win. Always easier to build on that than a loss.

Perhaps someone from NDNation will inform the boys that they are not entitled to have any fun or enjoy a victory or respond to a coach who is unacceptable to those in the know.

Actually canuck75, normally this point is spot on, but this year they seem to have mellowed.
