Nothing like Knute Rockne to fire up the Irish faithful for Saturday night's game at Michigan State. Here are five of his top quotes from my site:

1. "Show me a gracious loser and I'll show you a failure."

2. "I beg your pardon. I thought this was a Notre Dame team."

-- commenting to his players on a game Notre Dame was losing at halftime

3. "Football is a game played with arms and legs and shoulders, but mainly from the neck up."

4. "When in doubt, punt."

5. "I find that prayer works best when you have big players."
