But for everyone, surely, what we have gone through in this period — I am addressing myself to the School — surely from this period of ten months this is the lesson: never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never-in nothing, great or small, large or petty — never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense.

ADDED:  Bad call, NBC. Nobody wants your national division. We want sports, pure and clean of the political games. Kamala Harris' grinning mug is sickening, considering she lost in the primaries, and yet was "awarded" the presidency herself, based on divisive identity politics.  Scores matter, and the press cannot win the country. Work will, and victors emerge through hard-fought pain and struggle. "As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be..."  America is not artificial, though Washington is.  Still we work. And rise. And turn off the laughing hyena who knows nothing of either.  Trust me: America will hate this woman and not accept her as our leader...  and don't even play the "race(s)" card here.  It's not her race, it's her character. Nobody voted for that, or her.  Defense, defense, defense.

Notre Dame's passion storms the field... Yes they did! 

 

"Students stormed the field from all four corners of the stands, creating a mass celebration in the middle of the field. Notre Dame limits attendance to students, faculty and university personnel -- other than players' families -- and while Saturday's game drew only 11,011, most of them seemed to enter the field at the end. ...

Clemson players and coaches quickly exited to the tunnel in the northeast corner of the field, while most Notre Dame players and coaches headed for their tunnel. Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said he didn't mind the field rush from the Notre Dame fans, saying, "It was an epic game."

Notre Dame running back Kyren Williams said he was late getting to the postgame locker room celebration because he had to get through so many fans who had entered the field.

"That was a cool experience for me, everybody rushing down," said Williams, who had never witnessed a field storm before Saturday. "Coach Kelly told us before the game that it was going to happen. ... He told us to get inside after the game, fast."

Wide receiver Avery Davis said he got "bumped around" during the field storm but added, "I loved the energy."

The ACC did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the field storm at Notre Dame, a league member in football this season. Notre Dame recorded its ninth win against an AP No. 1 team and ended Clemson's 36-game regular-season win streak Saturday.

"It's something you expect with our great fans and our great community around us, they're really, really passionate about us playing football," Owusu-Koramoah said. "You expect something like that, storming the field, beating the No. 1 team. [Kelly] told us to get up out of there if they did storm the field, but it's kind of hard, so we just celebrated with them."
