Remembering NIU loss after the big physical and emotional win at TAM - does history repeat
itself soon after for Notre Dame?
Lots of travel too many injuries could spell disaster January 9.

We need to forget NIU, it was second game of season
the '77 Irish, natl champs, lost 2nd game too, it's football, it happens

We were easily expected to beat BC. Penn State is another must win. No let down, slightly worried
about our injuries.
big difference, last game of season
And people forget, BC was t a bad team, BC was ranked with Foley at
No difference - physical and emotional wins followed by emotional let down.
It doesn’t just happen to ND but to all programs.
I was simply noting that ND is facing recent history ala TAM - NIU
Hard to believe do many got their nuts caught in a vice after noting recent history.
My hope is, ND is up to the challenge both physically and emotionally, especially emotionally.
Can't compare NIU to Penn State. If ND loses, it isn't because they are overlooking opponent

The post isn’t comparing NIU to PSU or overlooking an opponent.
Read better.
It's hard to comprehend what point you're trying to make. You're linking PSU to NIU in the subject
"Does history repeat itself?" What history? The only thing a PSU loss would have in common with a NIU loss would be the mark against the record. Your other point was "Lots of travel and injuries."
Anyone with a grade school reading comprehension would interpret your points this way:
Author is worried ND will lose to Penn State. Author is comparing NIU loss to Penn State loss. Author brings up the physicality and emotion as another link to NIU loss. This point may have relevance, but is not supported by his second point. Author brings up injuries and travel as reasons ND could lose, even though those were not reasons ND lost to NIU. ND travels as well as any other team, and NIU was a home game! Injuries were a non-factor between the TAMU and NIU games, as there were no injuries suffered in the TAMU game.
ND admitted to losing the NIU game because of focus and respect gaps, pure and simple. I seriously doubt they do that with Penn State.
He's a lost cause,don't bother trying

Post-big game letdown = common trope for an unexpected loss to big underdog that fits NIU not PSU
You talked also about injuries and travel, which didn't happen for NIU. Injuries were not a factor for NIU. Travel was not a factor for NIU, as it was a home game.
Oh, I forgot TAM was a home game for ND and Faison
was injured later in the season as well as the TAM game was not much of a physical game as it was a walk in the park not to mention the cool 50 temps on game day.
I get now. Your handle rhymes with imbecile not Tim Basil (plant)

ND isn't playing NIU next week.
I'm not sure how you overlook Penn State in the semifinals.
