WATCH PARTY: 2023-24 Bowl Thread

[RipWheeler]

Damn you Tommy Rees, first you beat Georgia then you lose outright to scUM.

 

[Luckylucci]

It’s funny to see so many O players we recruited and almost had come to ND from QB to RB to WR

This wasn’t a talent gap. It was a coaching gap.

 

[Sea Turtle]

Well he going to The NFL and it will all be downhill from here for The Skunk Bears

You're probably right. I don't think Michigan or their fans care. They just won the Natty.

It's not getting vacated. 😕

1 for 12 on 3rd downs

I can only speak from my experience in Miami against Bama in 2012, they are nowhere near the level of Michigan fans in terms of arrogance, assholery, and just generally being horrible to be around. Night and day difference

Down here in the south... They laugh at ND... kinda this snide smirk that eats me up... acting like we're less than them.

Gotta get em' one of these years... Been too long without a win against them

 

[GATTACA!]

It will be our time as ND fans soon enough. Sweet dreams fellas

We haven't won a big game in my lifetime. Now we need to win 3 in a row?

Give me something for the pain and let me die.

At least I can always hold dear the fact that, deep down, I know Michigan fans know this wasn't legit. They'll say they don't care, but they will care that every other fanbase knows this championship was tainted. Just like we all know 1997 wasn't a legit championship (Nebraska was clearly the champ). Years and years of never letting them forget it will wear them down, even if it doesn't get vacated.

 

[Circa]

There's always next year fellas...

 

[Sea Turtle]

And to think. I could have been out there protecting sea turtles instead of watching this garbage.

I'm afraid you're mistaken. You think Auburn fans care about their 2010 NC being tainted over having bought Cam? They couldn't care less. Think USC cares about their last NC being tainted because of cheating? No. Michigan fans won't care. Period.

Buts it’s all I got and I’ll remind them every chance I get.

I know Astros, Patriots, UNC and Kansas fans lose a ton of sleep over their teams misdeeds 😆

2010 didn't get vacated so Auburn doesnt really apply. USC fans do care and get really angry about it.

 

[NDWarrior]

More importantly, are there any good S, WR, or Tackles we think are going to the porty that we think we can grab. These are the last two teams to have players who can potentially enter it over the next 5 days.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

This was the year for someone to steal a title with all the parity.

Michigan just happened to take that phrase literally.

Mr Harbaugh cussing on national TV, geez!

2003 is the more fun one. USC, like every other school, signed a contract that the true NC would be whoever wins the BCS championship.


They are whores and liars to even claim that one.

Well, that W doesn't really change anything for me. Fuck Michigan. Fuck Jim Harbaugh. Fuck JJ Bitchtits McCarthy. Hope they all tear ACLs while just existing. Go fuck yourself Michigan. Go Irish!

 

[Irish4life]

Well, on a positive note, all of the excuses for why ND can't win national titles in football are dead.

 

[NDWarrior]

Oh yeah a new era where the CFP will no longer be as dominated by The SEC as much as it has in the past

 

[ColinKSU]

 

[irishff1014]

Just one more reason to hate Ole Tommy boy. He still choked.

 

[MPClinton22]

As a Patriots fan, gotta be honest it is pretty annoying to have to deflect deflategate comments. Certainly takes away some of the shine of that one. Do I truly believe it makes the championship any less legit? No, not really. But I definitely get less enjoyment from it because the conversation ALWAYS goes to the cheating allegations.

I aspire to make Michigan fans feel the same way about this one. Because I know it will genuinely result in less enjoyment than if they had won this legitimately.

 

[NDPhilly]

This Michigan team probably doesn’t win in a 12 team playoff where a healthy Georgia team doesn’t make it. Shit idk if they beat OSU on a neutral field considering it went to the wire at home against them.

This year was the perfect storm of UGA, Bama, and OSU breaking in new QBs. UGA had injuries in the SEC championship that kept them out. Clemson has fallen off. And Bama had more holes than usual as well.

It was a perfect year for fresh blood, and it just ended up being Michigan instead of UT or Washington, primarily bc of Harbaugh.

This type of year isn’t going to be the norm, especially with how UGA, Bama, and OSU continue to pull in talent. Gross how it lined up for them.

If you get into the playoff enough times, things often eventually work out.

Unless you're Oklahoma

 

[IrishTusker]

Unless you're Oklahoma

Did Oklahoma not win a title under Stoops?

 

[RipWheeler]

Well if scUM can claim this and Bama claims imaginary titles, then ND better damn well start claiming 1993.
