Notre Dame (football only discussion)

[Bucknut24]

If Suh didn't deserve it a couple of years ago, then Teo should not even be invited to NY, IMO. He is Top 10-15 in the country at LB, but not heisman worthy by any stretch.

For me, it is Manziel's to lose, but many won't vote for him because he is a Freshman.

agreed...Eddie George said he was voting for Te'o, and I tweeted him saying no way and why..


his only response...cause he is 2nd in the country in INT's

No way I'll be caught dead rooting for the Domers. The Declan Sullivan incident, the Elizabeth Seeberg cover up..they are almost as bad as Penn State as an institution imo.

Yeah the SEC bit is getting annoying, but let it be the 2013 Buckeyes that dethrone those jerk offs.

I would say they're worse. Far worse. The Paterno regime was horrid, but once they managed to get rid of the old guy, the leadership actually seems pretty good about undoing Paterno's damage. The President and Board are not the cult. That's why the cult loathes them so.

Notre Dame would be utterly incapable of the soul searching and course correction that Penn State (at least the academic leadership) has engaged in. Notre Dame as an institution is absolutely reprehensible on so many levels that transcend football.

Charlie Weis just said the most important thing for him is to lay low and not try to take credit for Notre Dame's success. Ok then.

I'll go even further and say that to call Notre Dame sociopathic as an institution is no longer metaphorical. It's taken on a literal meaning since the place is actually running up a f!$cking body count these days.

Like I said before, he isn't even the FSB's best defensive player...

Just my hunch, but I do think a lot of African-American voters are going to find a reason to not vote for Johnny Hatecrime.

How in the hell does this guy ride the coattails of someone else? Wouldn't that type of weight rip the coat right off the person wearing it?

Wow. The arrogance from the fat one is on a level of its own.

I think you mean they've added psychosis to their long standing neurotic, sociopathic tendencies.

Congrats to ND and their season. As much as I hate the domers and their hype machine, they stopped the Gators from sliding into another All-SEC NCG. That would have officially killed the bowl season for me. How in the FLYING FUCK BALLS does a team NOT play for their conference championship but get the opportunity to play for a NATIONAL championship??? I know, I know, it has happened before... as recently as LAST YEAR! But come on! How bat-shit crazy ass stupid is that? You aren't one of the best two teams in your own conference, but you are one of the best two teams in the nation. Go to hell, NCAA and this stupid BCS crap.

Oh, and now I hope the domers get their ass handed to them in the NCG. I want my Buckeyes to be the only undefeated team. Suck on that one, NCAA. Your only undefeated team was a team that you sanctioned out of the bowls two years after the fact. Punish a coach and a bunch of players who had nothing to do with the incident OR EVEN THE UNIVERSITY at the time it all happened. Way to screw the pooch on that one, ass hats. Go find a hole and rot in it.

I think Shazier had more tackles than Te'o this year. Someone posted that on here I think

Teo: Tackles: 103 Tackles For Loss: 5.5 Ints: 7 Sacks: 1.5
Shazier: Tackles: 116 Tackles For Loss: 17 Ints: 1 Sacks: 5

These stats show that Teo is dropping back into coverage where Shazier is attacking upfront more.

What are Teo's best selling points? Stats wise are his 7 ints. Nice, but not heisman worthy. In 1986 Spielman had 6 int along with 188 tackles.

Because the truth is that Notre Dame is the college football team for people who don't like college football. They're a novelty, a program designed to capture the attention of casual casual casual casual college football fans?New York-media types who believe that something is relevant only when they've deigned to pay attention to it. These are the people who say they're rooting for Notre Dame because "they're a great story," which is what you say when you're a front-running douchebag.

This is why I've hated Notre Dame for years and years and years. I fucking loathe them, even though I have no business loathing them. I've never set foot on campus. I've never been personally assaulted by a Notre Dame player (though there's still time). I have friends who went to that school who I like. But still... FUCK THEM. I hate Notre Dame for the exact same reasons I hate Tim Tebow. It's an underperforming football entity with an irritating tribal gloss of holiness, which gets far too much acclaim and adulation when it happens to succeed. The Fighting Irish belong with the Red Sox, the Yankees, Twilight, Taylor Swift, and any other property that is artificially relevant because the media wastes so much fucking time telling you how relevant they are.

Catholicism: No football program wears its religion on its sleeve more than Notre Dame. Even BYU isn't obnoxious enough to have Jesus overlooking the end zone. It's that kind of "we're more special than you" attitude that makes me hope that Satan will one day crawl out of the Earth's mantle and raze the entire Notre Dame campus with a single crack of his fire lash.
.
.
.
Holtz, Lou: It says a lot about your program when Lou Holtz--a man who can barely speak English and looks like a small-town pharmacist--is one of the greatest coaches in your history. I can't even imagine the amount of dark money boosters needed to raise under the table in order to prop up Lou Holtz. Lou Holtz makes Barry Switzer look like Dwight Eisenhower. I will never forgive ESPN for the Dr. Lou segments. "Remember, the good Lord put eyes in the front of your head and not in the back, so that you can see where you're going instead of where you've been." Oh thanks, Dr. Lou! What other wisdom have you gained from reading slogans off of coffee mugs?

If Teo gets the Heisman I'll cough up a fur ball! Not as good as Mauti or Shazier!

This a pathetic Heisman year!

I dig this cat's style.

Notre Dame is a lie. They're the Donald Trump of football teams, a gaudy program that has a elephant-sized blind spot to its own wretched taste. I hope they and their Dick Van Patten-looking asshole coach lose by 70 points and never sniff the national title again. Eat sh*t, Notre Dame.
