Great shot! I can almost hear the sound of that hit as his helmet pops off!

Hehe, I can share the spirit if not the actual sentiment! Whichever team you've come to see, the ND campus on game day is a remarkable place, and great place to get photographs; see my marching band shot in "Misc", please! (http://www.proudphotography.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5889) That was my first time there and it felt like a time warp; there was an unmistakable sense of timelessness and tradition. And although spirits run high when ND is involved, I saw none of the hooliganism that I've seen at many pro football games. Not to say it isn't there, but it wasn't like seeing Giants fans at an Eagles game. I've worn Steelers colors in Cleveland, and it can be a bit scary.

I'd love to see games at Ohio State, Nebraska, Oklahoma, USC; there's something about the college game live that is amazing, that doesn't translate to TV.
