    Love that navy one with the onside kick. The focus on it is great.

    GO AIRFORCE! NAVY!

    Just having a look at some of the betting lines, as I don't have a particular allegiance to either side, and gambling makes things more fun.

    Spread: Navy +15/Notre Dame -15
    With the Irish projected to win by 15 points, whichever side you take here should make things a bit more interesting if Notre Dame are up by two touchdowns. I've gone for Navy +15 here, but it's an ill-informed view, just on the basis that travel can be disruptive, the early start time, Notre Dame have some suspensions and will be fielding a new QB.

    Race to 10 points
    Notre Dame 1.37
    Navy 3.1

    Stuck with my Navy allegiance for this one.

    Game total: 54.5 points
    Over (rooting for scores is more fun).

    First scoring play
    Notre Dame touchdown 1.8
    Notre Dame field-goal 4.8
    Navy touchdown 4.33
    Navy field-goal 5

    Gone for a Notre Dame field-goal here, just seems a good price.

    Yes, right behind the goals, it will feel like you are playing Xbox

    Pretty good, but you'll be behind one of the goals rather than along the sideline, but the view from that level is very good.

    What row number are you in?

    Right behind the posts. This is a view from the section above yours

    I'd imagine most people at this stage who are going have their tickets sorted and we know we can get beer and being in cameras so what about the game then?

    Seeing as they're giving 15-16 points according to the bookies, I think its safe to say ND will probably win but I'm just hoping it stays tight for as long as possible and it doesn't turn into the 56-14 rout that it did last year.

    Just looking forward to seeing the new QB and see what the post-Floyd offence is like.

    Cierre Wood missing tomorrow too.

    Will be good to be there no matter what happens but like you I hope it's not a blowout. Won't be betting on the game but have done a few bets on other college games over the weekend...

    First year in a while I don't know any of the Irish position players. Would have loved to have seen Floyd play.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,929 ✭✭✭JaMarcus Hustle


    Very excited to see Everett Golson at QB for Notre Dame. Had thought Kelly would go with the safer option of Hendrix, but delighted he's chosen Golson. ND fans are very happy with that, and it bodes well from an entertainment perspective for those of us at the game. Also very disappointed we wont get to see Cierre Wood in person. He's a fantastic player, but we always have Manti Te'o :)

    Also, over 1000 replies. I never dreamed that the game would be this popular when it was first announced! Kind of chuffed to see it all over the place now - radio, news, internet, even people I know who haven't a clue about football are talking about it.

    Mate said to go to the Dublin Rebels tailgate in the Bath pub.Where is that located?


  • Registered Users Posts: 151 ✭✭Huawei Gallagher


    Thanks for that!

    I look forward to debating lens length with the security staff!!! :D

    I was at the Bears game in Wembley last year and that was exactly what happened, guy in front had a slightly long lens and was told to put camera away, argument ensued, security did not budge an inch, guy had to put it away.

    Have just arrived at bewleys newlands cross . Next stop the Aviva. I think some of the high school players might be staying here. Staff also have badges with shamrock footballs on them , bottles of energy drinks packed up in the lobby .

    Or, LeBron James could be in town.

    Hi is there a timetable for tomorrow in the aviva? I know that 2 pm is the start time but just wondering is that kick off and what time would I need to be in the stadium to see the pregame stuff such as the bands, teams taking the field etc?
