Respect...

Good morning Eagle Nation,

There is no official update on the QB competition but all signs point to Rettig as we draw closer and closer to the Notre Dame game. Rettig was the first QB on the field and was taking the vast majority of snaps with the first team offense. But hey either way I trust Spaz. To quote the Boston Herald, "The Chase is on".

There was an article this morning on espn.com that interviewed BC's defensive linemen Alex Albright. Basically the article said how BC doesn't get respect from Notre Dame (or the nation for that matter) and that this game is about respect. Respect? How have we not earned Notre Dame's respect? We have won 7 out of the last 9 meetings, including a 17-0 shutout last time ND visited the "Aluminum Monster"©, and won six times in a row between 2001-2008 (before Uncle Dave blew the streak). Notre Dame has played six games in Chestnut Hill and out of those six they've only won twice. And the stats continue.

Notre Dame leads the all time series 10-9, and out of the 19 games played two were on neutral sites, 11 were played in South Bend and only 6 were played in Chestnut Hill. without the two neutral site games BC leads the series 9-8 with a 4-2 record at home and a 5-6 record on the road. BC has played at Notre Dame almost double than at home and despite that have a 9-8 record against Notre Dame not counting neutral field games.

Not only should we have their respect but they should begging us to play them every year because lets face it Notre Dame, we are your rivals. Not USC, not Michigan or Michigan State. We are. You know why? Because you can't beat us at our house. You won't beat us at our house. WE ARE BC.
