His quote... Notre Dame may have beaten Utah twice. The Maaco Bowl Las Vegas badly wants the Irish (which became bowl eligible last week) to fill one of its vacated Pac-10 slots, but it doesn't want an ND-Utah rematch, either. And San Diego State is all but assured the hometown Poinsettia Bowl. So the Utes, even at 10-2, could slip to the Independence Bowl. (I put 8-4 Air Force in Vegas.)
