January 1, 20214 yr No, it’s called extreme gap in talent. Another example would be your girlfriends and my wife. your wife is ND?
January 1, 20214 yr 4 minutes ago, Doc Sam Beckett said: Who gives a shit dude, I'm on record that Oklahoma should be the 4th team, but everyone except Clemson and Ohio State are getting routed by Bama. I would not have argued against that.
January 1, 20214 yr Agreed. This is the point all of us are making that keep saying go to 8 and the quality of these games (semis) will improve. 16

January 1, 20214 yr ND struggling to really test the young Bama DBs. This is just an awful matchup for them in terms of styles.
January 1, 20214 yr That Rudy sign is a good one. You would always see some Rudy Was Offsides T-shirts up at the Big East Tournament.
January 1, 20214 yr 4 minutes ago, Vic Mackey said: How about both? ND was not playoff worthy. They prove this every time they are selected. They’re playoff worthy because you have to select 4 teams. We could do this every year. Right now, it’s clearly Bama, Clemson, Ohio state, and everyone else. You’ll have the miracle LSU year where all the talent comes together at the same time and you get the greatest season ever by a college qb, but ultimately those 3 teams are the only playoff caliber teams by your metrics.
January 1, 20214 yr 3 minutes ago, notre dame joe said: IT's actually an argument that we never needed or wanted a playoff. About this time last year ND played ISU and the Irish looked as invincible as Bama does now. I'd argue ISU is the best possible match up for ND. They just don't have the talent or speed to exploit ND that OU does and we do
January 1, 20214 yr So was this game moved because ND couldn't have family attend the game in Pasadena?
January 1, 20214 yr 8 and no conference should have more than two teams. If you can't be at least second in your league than f u.
January 1, 20214 yr Who wants this shit offense??? This isn't a personnel problem, it's a coaching problem. Forget this shithead. Sarkasian or Meyer. That's it.
January 1, 20214 yr 5 minutes ago, mdmost said: Quick question for you. How many coaches going right now have beaten Alabama that we can get? I mean if you want Gus Malzhan or us to go after Ed Orgeron than okay. Dabo isn't coming here. Even Dabo might lose to Bama this year. Kelly is still the best realistic option.

January 1, 20214 yr 6 minutes ago, youdunnf'dup said: At what point do we just accept that this has nothing to do with ND not being a playoff worthy team, and everything to do with the fact that Bama was always going to do this to any team not named Clemson or Ohio state? People complain about the CFB playoff semis being bad games, 2/3 of the playoffs are bad games. Go to 8 teams you add 4 games. Assume 1 v 8 is a bad game, 7 v 2 as well. You get two solid match ups for figuring out who plays 1 and 2. That’s an immediate improvement AND it requires a team to truly earn a semi spot. Yeah Bama might roll but if you assume the two middle match ups are good and you get at least one good semi game and a good championship game the spectators just got 4 great games over 3 weeks instead of 1. Throw in the occasional surprise upset which then turns the whole thing upside down. No doubt 8 teams becomes legit exciting for 3 weeks regardless of the professional football team in Tuscaloosa rolling to the finals.

You say that, but often times the best player doesn't actually win it, sadly. I've got Smith #1 and Lawrence #2, but I can see them giving it to Lawrence based solely on his career and the fact he's going #1 overall. Fucking football politics and stupid shit.

I use to be against 8 but I am all in on it now. The P5 conference champs plus top ranked G5 conference champ and two at large fills it out. The 3rd at large that is left out can be told to go fuck themselves since they did not win their conference or are not part of the P5. Some scrap games but great regular seasons for everyone involved including G5 teams because hope.
January 1, 20214 yr 35 minutes ago, Snacks said: So... They said ND is "physical". "Physical" is football code for "slow". ND would not win the Big 12. That defense is slow. They have a lot of lunch pail types. Coaches all over the field
January 1, 20214 yr Just now, Doc Sam Beckett said: Book isn't bad, he needs to grow a pair and take some shots I would argue this characteristic is the only thing that makes him an above average college football player.
January 1, 20214 yr So was this game moved because ND couldn't have family attend the game in Pasadena? it's in arlington. they dont have a big enuf stadium in Pasadena.
January 1, 20214 yr Author Just now, SDG said: Didn't the whole state go back on lock down? the 49rs have played their last 2 games in Arizona and they been working out here as well. There has to be some penalty for brainless lockdown rules.
January 1, 20214 yr James Brockermeyer is going to have to take a lot of steriods to play center for the Bama scout team.
January 1, 20214 yr I remember not being impressed with Harris his first few years, but he's definitely living up to the hype from hs.
January 1, 20214 yr 4 minutes ago, millhouse said: Keeping ash and hiring sark a reasonable option? Can we put a "no caught drunk" clause in the contract? If so, the advantage is we could leave the D alone. Would he even need to change OCs? Change OL coach of course. Is this option a better option than Herm? Of course it is, right?

January 1, 20214 yr So was this game moved because ND couldn't have family attend the game in Pasadena? I heard on sports radio that it was due to Jerry World having a larger capacity than the Sugar Bowl and the CFP wanted to give the #1 team the benefit of having more fans.

The more the better. Every division 1 conference champ should have a shot at playing in the postseason. If not, what’s the point of winning your conference? But 8 is the best they’ll do, so all 5 P5 champs and 3 at large makes the most sense.

IF you don't have the dynamic qb you might as well line up in the wishbone and try for 9 minute drives.
January 1, 20214 yr Really sad when the olds in the house are like, “That’s not John Travolta. It’s not him. I don’t see it. I don’t see what you’re talking about.” Lmao. More wine!

January 1, 20214 yr Author 4 minutes ago, Irish Wrist Watch said: Ole Miss 48 pts, Florida 46 pts. It isn't a lack of talent. Well... by recruiting numbers we're without our top 2 WRs (hammy and kleptomania) Also Book was recruited basically as a backup to Brandon Wimbust. I don't think any SEC team would accept Book's transfer with any promises.
