Why Notre Dame is overrated

Posted Oct 10, 2008
Everything about Notre Dame football is so exaggerated I wouldn't be surprised if there were only Three Horsemen instead of four. The hype machine is so overblown that even a walk-on got his own movie. His own movie! Now, Surry Wood walked on the North Carolina basketball team, and he’s a nice kid from Raleigh who worked hard and was well-liked, but HBO didn’t rush to do a documentary about him. That’s just the point. So much about Notre Dame football is exaggerated (WRAL Sports Fan)
