ND (21-5-2) will be ranked 2nd in the country this week, but more importantly, they’re one of the best defensive clubs in the country, they come at you with a balanced attack — truly four lines that can hurt you — and they have a legitimate Hobey Baker candidate in netminder David Brown.

He actually wished he were a freshman instead of a senior. To quote somebody, "You ain't seen nothin yet !" Go Irish !
