Notre Dame Fighting Irish Tickets for 2007 Season

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish won’t be able to take on the Ohio State Buckeyes in the championship game this year. Not after the USC Trojans dominated the Irish right from the start yesterday. While last year’s USC – Notre Dame match went back and forth and proved to be a fight to the finish, this sequel just couldn’t live up to the predecessor.

Fighting Irish Quarterback Brady Quinn finished his career 0 for 4 against the Trojans and dashed any hopes at winning the Heisman Trophy after finishing 22 for 45 with 274 yards and 3 touchdowns, most of those numbers coming from Notre Dame’s scramble to get back in it during the second half.

Brady Quinn can only hang his head after losing to USC for the fourth time in his career

We’re going to have to wait and see which Bowl game the Irish will have the chance to take-part in. In the meantime, Notre Dame Football Tickets are available for next season. The Irish open at home on September 1 against Georgia Tech. Ticket prices run anywhere from $383 to $1,353. USC will come to Notre Dame on October 20. Fans looking to catch the rematch can get tickets now for anywhere from $648 to $2,059.

Notre Dame Fighting Irish fall to USC

Fans looking to get their hands on Notre Dame Football Tickets will have to get in line for next year’s games it seems. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish didn’t have what it takes to take on the USC Trojans on Saturday as the Irish lost 44-24. Notre Dame Coach Charlie Weis could do nothing but watch and wait in hoodie as the grandeur of Hollywood and USC swamped his Irish on the field.

This one was a must-win for the Irish to the point that even a victory did not guarantee a ticket to the championship game against Ohio State.

Maybe the Chicago-Sun Times had the best line of all to sum up the game. “When [USC’s Dwayne] Jarrett soared near the Goodyear blimp in the third quarter to make an acrobatic one-handed catch, then made another such grab early in the fourth, the plays told the smattering of green-clad fans that the Irish still aren’t ready for prime-time, championship living.”

Brady Quinn will graduate winless against USC

The Irish lost two games this season, one to Michigan and one to USC. The Irish lost 47-21 against Michigan back in September and lost 44-24 yesterday to USC. The last time the Irish allowed 44 points in two different games was fifty years ago and now Irish senior Brady Quinn will join about 35 other Irish seniors to graduate without having ever beaten USC.
