The 2009 Irish football season has reached its climax. After a heartbreaking loss to USC in what was billed as their biggest game this season, the Irish bounced back to break another streak with a win against BC. With five games to play, the Irish have past the crest in the hill and should coast towards the ultimate conclusion of the season: the bowl game.
The Irish sit at 5-2 and are currently ranked #23 in the BCS standings. The Irish are predicted to win out to finish 10-2, but with the way this team has been playing, I'm not so sure. Regardless, Charlie needs these games to prove the Irish are legitimate contenders again. Even though a National Championship is out of reach, I would love to finish 11-2 which should rank us in the Top 10. In addition, the golden boy Jimmy Clausen has a great chance to win the Heisman and Golden Tate should run away with the Biletnikoff.
All things considered, the 2009 ND Football season can still rank as one of the best ever, topping Weis' 2005 and 2006 success.
