"After a while, you start lis­ tening to it," the 23-year-old Howell said. "I know that ide­ ally I'm not supposed to, but it starts to get in your head a little bit." Howell ended such talk with a clutch up-and-down birdie on No. 15. He had an eagle, four birdies and three bogeys on his card through 14 holes. He said challenging for the lead and giving shots back actually helped his game in quest of his first victory. "I was just enough in con­ tention to get nervous but I was just enough out of con­ tention to get hacked off at myself for not being ahead," he said. "So for the first win, I probably couldn't give a bet­ ter scenario."

THE Monday, October 7, 2002 OBSERVER Notre Dame 31, Stanford 7 Leaving his past behind Facing familiar faces across the field, Willingham led his new team to victory

By ANDREW SOUKUP Sports Writer

Stanford quarterback Chris Lewis made no attempt to be patient. Mumbling, "Excuse me, I need to shake a hand," he edged his way between reporters sur­ rounding Irish head coach Tyrone Willingham, who was preoccupied with a NBC interview. Suddenly, Lewis broke through the crowd surrounding his former head coach. Willingham stopped talking to the camera and embraced his former player, whispering something in Lewis' ear. Then the two symbolically parted, Willingham returning to his interview, Lewis return­ ing to his team. Lewis wasn't the first, nor was he the last, Stanford player to approach his for­ mer coach. As Willingham jogged toward the tunnel under a deafening roar. Cardinal after Cardinal lined up to talk to their old coach. What Willingham told his former proteges, only they will know. But Willingham, who joined Jesse Harper, Knute Rockne and Ara Parseghian as the only Irish coaches to start 5-0 in their first season, didn't have to do much talking after Notre Dame's 31-7 win. The No. 8 Irish sent the Cardinal out of Notre Dame Stadium with a message of their own, showing Stanford what a Willingham-led team is capable of. "If I were on the other side of the ball and the game's over, whichever way it goes," Darrell Campbell said. "I would definitely start the line and shake coach Willingham's hand because he's such a tremendous person, such a tremendous coach. He's like a father figure to us."

Carrying a 7-3 lead into the halftime, LISA VEL TE/The Observer the Cardinal appeared poised to hand its former coach a shocking upset. But while Irish coach Tyrone Willingham looks across the sideline at his old team before the first snap of Saturday's game. Stanford celebrated in its locker room, Willingham left his sentiments behind as he led the Irish to a 31-7 victory against Stanford. the Irish - including Willingham - flung curse words around to express their dis­ early Saturday morning he would start first-half offensive yards.
