Notre Dame QB in Bar Fight

Starting quarterback and team captain Jimmy Clausen was involved in an altercation outside a South Bend, Ind., bar in the hours after a double-overtime loss to Connecticut on Saturday, taking a punch to the face in the incident, sources told the Tribune.

So how much of a chance you give Notre Dame against Stanford with a starting QB sporting black eyes and bruised knuckes? Somewhere, Knute Rockne is demanding an audible on the Weis era.

Be interesting to see how NBC spins this …
