Clausen or Bust

Saturday Notre Dame Fighting Irish take on the Michigan Wolverines. The Fighting Irish are the favorite but for them to win in Michigan takes a Heisman like performance from their Quarterback Jimmy Clausen. He threw for 315 yards and 4 touchdowns at home against a less than stellar Nevada defense. The finger is going to be readily pointed at Clausen, but it is my belief that this game comes down to the Irish offensive line. They need to control the line of scrimmage or else it will be a long day for the Irish hopeful. For Clausen to be effective Notre Dame will need to establish the run early or else Clausen will get no time in the pocket. I do not see Notre Dame going in to Michigan and pulling this one out. I take Michigan 24-20!
