SOUTH BEND (AP) -- Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis isn't sure where the blame should fall for his team's 1-9 season.

Weis talked with the players after Saturday's 41-24 loss to Air Force about his frustration regarding the lack of progress and asked them who's at fault--student or teacher?

There was no clear answer. Weis said most years he's been able to get his message across in meetings, see it translated onto the practice field and then onto the playing field on game days. He can't figure out why he can't do that this year.

Notre Dame has set school records with nine losses in a season and six straight home defeats.

The Irish have two more chances to win -- Saturday against Duke and Nov. 24 at Stanford. The team's only win this season came Oct. 6 at UCLA.
