Irish vs. Buckeyes, Round Five

Notre Dame and Ohio State, two schools with 9-2 records, "Oh what could have been" thoughts regarding both of their losses, and tremendous fanbases are heading to Tempe.

At 2:00 PM Pacific, 5:00 PM Eastern on Monday, January 2nd, the BCS 2005 kicks off with the most anticipated non-Rose Bowl matchup of the postseason.

Notre Dame brings in a Top 10 offense. The Buckeyes counter with a lethal defense that ranks 4th overall, #1 against the run. Charlie Weis needs a month to prepare for this type of defensive attack...oh, wait, he's got a month.
