Let's get to business and put the past behind us, the Spartans come to town on Saturday and a win is step #1 in my revised expectations, (missed one last week, but we can still get 75%). It won't be easy, however, as the Spartans have gained confidence with three season opening wins. Coach Mark Dan Tony Oh has the young Big Televen team believing in itself and they fully expect to continue their dominance of the Irish in at Notre Dame Stadium, a venue where they haven't lost since the Hayes administration.
Signs of Spartan confidence have been uncovered by ND alumni in East Lansing who obtained a portion of the Spartan playbook. The page depicts a play titled 'Post Game FP' and is being revealed to you, the loyal 91 Screaming Otter readers:
Coach Oh has never ever, never, never, never lost a game to Charlie Weis or Notre Dame. His confidence is demonstrated in the 'Post Game FP' key assignments to remember flag, find the library, and to pick up the megaphone trophy. In order to prepare his team this week, Coach M. D. T. Oh is planning to take his players to a Borders book store in Lansing to familiarize them with the environment they will encounter in South Bend.
In related news, former coach John L. Smith may be working in a special role for the Spartans since his dismissal and replacement by Mark Dantonio. Rumors persist that the firing was a well orchestrated ruse to allow Coach Smith to further focus on his special gift, player motivation and gamesmanship, under the new title of Special Assistant to Deploy Flags After Games (S.A.D.F.A.G.). The following satellite image was taken at a mothballed Air Force base near Louisville, Kentucky where Coach Smith is reported to be working on 'something special' for the ND game on September 22.
