The Fighting Irish Poet: A September to Remember

A September to Remember

4-0 to end September

A Fighting Irish month to remember.

New players everywhere

And fans back in the stadium air.

*

Week one at Florida State

Heart stopping overtime was our fate.

But Doerer was true

His 41 yarder went through.

*

In Week two came Toledo

Upset intent was their credo.

But Coan to Mayer was a dagger

Wrecked The Rocket’s 4^th qtr. swagger.

*

Week three the Boilers came calling

Karlaftis and Bell in for a mauling.

But, Irish Big Plays became cheap

Kyren from 39 and Avery Davis went deep.

*

Next Kelly going for 106 in old Chi town

The Badgers for 45 minutes would not back down.

But then Tyree broke their back

And Freeman’s defense finished the attack.

*

Now Cincy looms as September fades out

Ranked #7 Irish football has clout.

And though the games have been heated

This year’s team is still undefeated.
