Hi all! Per usual, I’ve been MIA. With kids, and more kids, and more kids, and work, and life, and work and life and kids. Blah blah. I’m lame, but this is nothing new. What’s new? This year’s LEPS!
Keeping it short and sweet and focusing on the future because I was so bad last year. So this is the really short version. DO YOU? Yes. DO YOU!?!??!
Dance, Dance, Dance! I CAN’T STOP THE FEELING!
THE SCALE!
This is just as likely to be wrong as it is to be right (aka the BadKermit Effect)
I’ve got a good feeling, but am leaving myself some wiggle room
This is a lock, I am a genius, I cannot be wrong.
Last year recap:
I sucked. So did the Irish. That enough? No?
Okay, so yeah one of my worst years ever. I said 10-2. We were like 1 and 7 Zillion. Moving on!
Temple
Notre Dame and the Temple of Doom
ND wins 27 – 7
Two leps because Entirely New Staff.
Georgia

ND wins 26-20
3 Leps dancing’ FTW. MSU is worse off than ND, and now we’re feeling pretty good.
Miamo OH
No way we lose when I come to tailgate.
ND Wins 38-14
Three! Cuz, for serious, we gonna win one for the Biscuit.
UNC
ND Loses 28-20
Southern Cal
ND Loses 33-14. Ugh, so painful to predict a loss to SC, but i think we’re another year away from Top 10. And we’ll need to be a top 10 team to beat the Trogans.
Only 1 Lep bc it’s ND-USC. But yeah, they’re likely better than us.
NC State
ND Wins 27-23.
2 Leps because who knows? But I think we stop the slide here.
Wake Forest
ND Wins 40-27
The Revenge of the Sith. (huh?)
Miami (the real one)
ND Wins 42-35
Shootout!
Navy
ND Wins 52-33
1 Lep because Navy is the worst, and it’s Navy and new D Staff and it’s Navy.
Stanford
ND Loses by 7. The Lone Cardinal Wins it. 27-20.
2 for 2 Losses to our CA Rivals. BLEEEEEEEEEEEH. (that’s my puking sound).
Summary
ND isn’t a Top 10 team this year. We’re likely not Top 20. And finishing as I’ve predicted here at 8-4 we certainly won’t deserve any ranking. But, building blocks in place to see a run in 2018.
It’s not fun predicting mediocrity. But, the Football Gods hated my 10-2 last year so we must atone for our sins. FORGIVE ME I HAVE SINNED O LORDS OF THE GRIDIRON! 2017 is MY REPENTANCE! PLEASE ACCEPT THIS SACRIFICE SUCH THAT WE MAY WIN AGAIN SOON!
AND DANCE YOU LEPS, DANCE LIKE NO ONE IS WATCHING (except, well, everyone reading HLS).
Go Arsh! KILL EVERYBODY!
