Notre Dame got out to an early lead before the heavy rains came, and back when Charlie Weis still had two intact ACLs and MCLs. Both of those changed late in the second quarter when the skies opened up and Irish defensive end John Ryan was shoved out of bounds and rolled up the leg of an unsuspecting Charlie Weis, who was watching the play downfield and never saw Ryan coming. Weis stoicly finished his coaching duties with crutches and a legbrace on the sideline. Despite the rain and an injured coach, Notre Dame won one for The Gimper against their rival Michigan.
