I don't know how the game is going to go on Monday night. Tosu has a Great team and I don't see the "How?" of us beating them, but I know these 4 things:
1) this team just beat the #8, #2, and #4 ranked teams in three consecutive games
2) this team has won 13 straight games for the longest winning streak in the Nation
3) I won't believe this run can be stopped until I see it, so Tosu is going to have to show me the "How?" of them beating us
4) Jeremiah Love is really danged good and I have a Sharpie standing by with just enough ink for two more Check Marks

Great list but there is one data point that you have wrong
This is not the first ND team to finish in the top-3 of defensive PPG and offensive PPG
The great 1966 National Champions - the greatest ND team that I ever watched play - finished the regular season ranked #1 in both defensive PPG and offensive PPG.
I didn't say that one was a first.
