Notre Dame (football only discussion)

[BuckBackHome]

I wonder what their NIL donors are thinking? Or are they just on board with the “everyone is out to get us” mentality?

Used to be the “anytime, anywhere” team.

Would have loved to have seen them play Texas in a bowl game on NYD.

Sark and his boys are going. I can’t believe Marcus Freeman would bail like this

More the AD’s move with Marcus just nodding “Yes.”

'Cowards.' Notre Dame 'took its ball and went home.' Reaction to Irish skipping bowl

Here's a sampling of the reaction on social media to Notre Dame opting out of a bowl after it was left out of the College Football Playoff

I’m all on board the “fuck ND in perpetuity” train, but what an absolute joke to swap Miami and ND when neither team played yesterday. Hell, the only team playing yesterday that either team played this season was Boise who won by 17 - and that would only strengthen ND’s schedule.

Just making shit up to justify what they want to do. Some arbitrary shit. I’d be pissed if I was an ND fan.

Fuck Notre Dame, but I don't see how the committe can justify a 3 loss Alabama team that got boatraced.

I can.

They beat that team at that team’s stadium earlier this season.

Bumping Bama would mean 3 teams that finished below them in the SEC would pass them by. At that point, teams like Bama should just say ‘no’ to the CCG.

I still can't get over this. This should be a major black mark on their program.

Reddits r/cfbmeme is gold mine right now

If they don't play in a bowl game, then they don't get the extra practices, right?

 

[Thump]

Correct.

Myopic as usual.

 

[Tomateaux Quinoa Gumbeaux]

Maybe they can invite cheeseburger Charlie back and have a competitive eating contest in lieu of a bowl

 

[Jaxbuck]

If they don't play in a bowl game, then they don't get the extra practices, right?

Correct.

Myopic as usual.

 

[DaveyBoy]

With opt.outs, I kind of expect this to become common.

I can see

I can.

the problem is the committee used the CCG loss to eliminate BYU but not Bama.
SECESPN flexed and the committee blinked

Had either Michigan beaten OSU or USC beaten Oregon…..or both…..we could have had a 4th B1G team in and at the expense of Bama.

I frankly don’t remember the details of the MOU but I have near zero faith the worm Petitti (who asked the NCAA to let scUM off easy to placate the networks) is looking out for the actual game or the players or the fans when he signs off on this sort of stuff. Color me resigned to the demise of our once great passion
