Irish must contain QB Robinson
NCAA Football Betting Lines
09/08/2010 -
SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) -Notre Dame will have to buckle down on defense this weekend.
Gap assignments, containment and sure tackling will all be essential when the Irish face Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson.
Irish defensive back Darrin Walls says Robinson is just like another running back and reminds him of Pat White, the former West Virginia quarterback who ran the spread so well when Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez was coach.
Robinson took over the starter's role and set Michigan records for total offense (383) and rushing yards (197) by a quarterback in a 30-10 win over Connecticut last week. He threw it around, too, with 19 completions on 22 attempts for another 186 yards.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
