Darnell Hood (4) and Leon Hall (29) celebrate during Michigan's 47-21 victory over Notre Dame in South Bend on Saturday. Michigan beat the Fighting Irish for the first time since 2003, when
the Wolverines went on to lose to Southern Cal In the Rose Bowl.
In historic victory, Varsity stuns Irish

SOUTH BEND - At the
end, there was no cheering
for 01' Notre Dame.
Only the stunned silence
of Irish fans as Chad Henne
took a knee and raised the
ball triumphantly over his
head.
The echoes were awake,
all right - but not the ones
mentioned in Notre Dame's
famous fight song.
These were the echoes of
"It's Great to be a Michigan
Wolverine" reverberating
through Notre Dame Stadi-
um's tunnel, as the Wolver-
ines jogged off the field with
their winged helmets raised
to the sky.
And No. 2 Notre Dame
was marching.
Just not onward to victory.
Instead, the Fighting Irish
(1) were marching to a
humiliating, shocking and
total defeat at the hands of
the 11th-ranked Wolverines
(3-0).

Saturday's game, see

tant to understand that that
team just came and just

ham's three-touchdown
day and a rock-solid defen-
sive performance, Michi-
gan closed out its pre-Big
Ten schedule with a 47-21
demolition of Notre Dame
- its largest margin of vic-
tory ever in South Bend. The
dominating win exorcised a
whole host of demons for the
Wolverines.
Finally, after three unsuc-
cessful tries, Michigan
coach Lloyd Carr earned his
first victory in South Bend.
Finally, after six consecutive
losses, the Wolverines came
away with a victory in their
road opener. And finally,
after a miserable 2005 sea-

son, Michigan put itself right
back in the middle of the col-
lege football landscape.
"Notre Dame is a great
institution, with a great tradi-
tion," Carr said. "And Michi-
gan is the same. Soas acoach,
when you can win against a
rival like that, believe me,
it's special, because it's hard.
I mean, the credit, it sure as
hell doesn't go to me. Those
guys out on the field, they
played the game."
With the score tied 7-7 late
in the first quarter, the game
appeared to have all the mak-
ings of a classic, tight Michi-
gan-Notre Dame battle. But
then the Manningham show
started.
It began with a cut, and
then another. Manningham
ran a complex route down
the right sideline, blowing by

Wooden's man-to-man cov-
erage. Michigan quarterback
Chad Henne stepped up in
the pocket amid a heavy rush

Daily Staff Reporter
Despite rumors that
Google might not establish
its new AdWords office in
Ann Arbor, the web search
giant has announced plans
to open a temporary loca-
tion on South Main Street
this morning.
Twenty Google employ-
ees will start working at the
AdWords office at 112 S.
Main St. today, said Grady
Burnett, head of online
sales and operations for the
Ann Arbor office.

AdWords, which manag-
es site-targeted advertising
sales, is Google's biggest
source of revenue.
The Main Street office is
only temporary, but Google
said it plans to stick around.
The company announced in
July it will build a perma-
nent AdWords office in the
Ann Arbor area. But wheth-
er it will build within city
limits is a topic of recent
speculation.
Earlier this month, The
Ann Arbor News published
a story claiming the coun-
cil had been out of touch
with Google for more than
a month. The story also said
Google has searched at least
three other nearby munici-
