South Bend, Indiana. With Indiana and Purdue both out of the question, my interest has shifted to northern Indiana, where the football gods have allowed Notre Dame to have an unblemished record. As a reward for their hard work all season long, now the Irish have a chance to make a new Rudy movie by playing on January 7. This means that with one more piece of the puzzle to go, Notre Dame has earned the jeremiahboyce.com number 1 college football story of the year. No matter how the national championship plays out, these Irish have definitely earned my respect and honor. Forget Saban and Meyer, Brian Kelly has earned my coach of the year honor. Sorry, SEC fans, but this year has been the luck of the Irish. Whoever you send as your representative is going to have to outwork Kelly and the Irish and have their lucky horseshoe with them.
