Notre Dame Remains Focused Despite this Season’s Hype

Charlie Weis, head coach for Notre Dame, was recently quoted in the Chicago Tribune saying that despite all the anticipation and hype surrounding the beginning of this season the Fighting Irish are just going to take it slow and focus on winning one game at a time, beginning with the season opener against Georgia Tech this Saturday.

Weis told the Tribune “We understand that you have to have expectations,” Weis said. “But I teach our players—and our coaches, for that matter—to be very short-sighted when it comes to expectations.”

Quarterback Brady Quinn echoed those sentiments saying “There has been a lot of hype around the season…[but] the only thing we care about right now is Georgia Tech.” Despite that, however, Quinn also said “I’d be lying if I said [a national title] wasn’t in the back of our minds.”

If you want to buy Notre Dame Tickets, it would be wise to get your hands on them as soon as possible. Last weekend, ticket prices ranged from $159 to $4,900.
