Notre Dame is #21

Notre Dame received a No. 21 ranking in the AP Top 25 Poll yesterday. The Irish were No. 20 last week, but their loss on the road at UConn, coupled with a road win over Rutgers was enough for the AP writers to cut the Irish down one notch. But being 21 isn’t so bad. There are a lot of great things about the number 21. Here are a few of the best.

  • At this age you can drink alcohol legally in the United States
  • Blackjack!
  • Number of volleys fired at a royal funeral
  • The current century
  • Forever
  • Amendment ending Prohibition

Now that you Notre Dame fans know how great being 21 is, go out and see their home game this week versus Pittsburgh. The Irish are making a great case to get a high seed in the Tournament, but they still need to play well as they close out the season.
