Irish Ranked No. 34 in Coaches' Poll

The preseason USA Today college football coaches' poll was released yesterday, and the 2010 Fighting Irish actually got some respect.

Notre Dame received 38 votes, which ranks God's Mom's favorite school 34th in the nation.

When asked how she felt about the team's preseason ranking, Our Lady responded positively.

"You know, I feel pretty good about it," she said. "I mean, we are coming off a few rough seasons, so you can't expect people to predict a national championship this year, even with a great new coach like B.K. But then again, no one thought a virgin peasant girl would be the Mother of God, so that just goes to show that with God, anything is possible."

Alabama received 55 of 59 first place votes to gain a firm hold of the No. 1 ranking. The other four first place votes went to Ohio State, who will start the season ranked No. 2.
