A big thank you to all who cast votes in the first round of our #HLSRecapMadness tournament. Round 2 voting opens now and closes at 11:59 and 59 seconds Tuesday night.
(I’m trying a different poll to avoid some of the first round problems. If you hit “results” before “vote,” I have no idea how to get back to vote. So…don’t do that?)
Here are your second round match-ups:
#1 vs. #9
Is there a #1 overall pick of getting your ass thrown out of the game?

The sheet is doing a good job of hiding from Notre Dame that Boston College is running the bad play

First round votes: @JackCooligan45 – 42; @BrianPickett – 38
Cooligan’s tweet was hailed as “tweet of the year” by former Irish offensive lineman Mike Golic. Pickett’s tweet was a great burn of the Eagles’ anemic offense. (The sheet looked like this.)
#5 vs #4

Daughter just asked if OSUs mascot was a "pooper with a happy face on it"

First round votes: @Subway_Sprout – 46; @IrishTightness – 38
Sprout’s tweet feels timely again after the Irish basketball team’s clutch win over the WoLOLverines. Kid potty humor is always funny.
#11 vs. #3
I’m not surprised @plaxicoburress commented on the Notre Dame team tonight. He recognizes somebody shooting themselves in the foot. #NDFB

First round votes: @andrewwinn – 37; @MattSRader – 33
Plaxico Burress, a Michigan State grad, decided to poke fun of Notre Dame during its unexpected struggle with woeful Boston College. Cardale Jones don’t go to Ohio State for no school.
#7 vs #2 vs #15

Southern Cal fans hold up two fingers during their fight song because that's how many people OJ killed

Battle Royale!
First round votes: @PootND – 29; @DoctahDean – 34; @dapremonster – 34
Will Fuller is stupid fast. Thanks to some creative branding by Under Armour, “mutual respect” was the story line during the Notre Dame-Navy game. The good Doctah and Dap tied in the first round. My game, my rules. Both advance.
