I’m not going to click it what are they saying?

Despite our anger and rambling:

At the end of the day, we can accept the result, despite its obvious flaws. Split first games, we aren’t here. Make your own luck, blah blah blah

We CANNOT accept the fact that set rules and criteria were constantly reshaped and even changed to create a scenario that displayed clear bias, and when that failed, the committee just winged it on the most important day of their job.

If they would have flipped the two of us when they got into the same "tier" a couple of weeks ago, I mean that sucks but whatever. There's some logic to it. Instead they put us in the same tier for 2 weeks and said, "yeah, ND is the better team, PERIOD." It's not that Miami got in that pisses me off, it's not even that they got in over us, it's that for 5 fucking weeks we were ahead of them and then we're both idle and we get bumped all while Bama has looked like ass for 6 weeks and was locked in. Don't get me started on OU's unquestioned status...

Exactly. Do this 3 weeks ago and I'm not as outraged. They wanted this shitshow just for views.

Literally feels like i just found out Santa Clause isn’t real. We all acted and hoped that this process was on the up and up. It’s clearly not.

Exactly. Corrupt. Non-transparent and arbitrary. Not the model for success.

 

[BoredIrish]

This is the cost of independence.

You don't wanna know. It will piss you off even more.

Wait what??? Santa??? 🥺

 

[jprue24]

Nope I've seen this play out
NCAA bitches
We sue
NCAA folds

You think schools sue the NCAA over punishments? Cause they don't.

X is miles better than the circlejerk on r/cfb. That place is a flaming dumpster fire of anti-ND shit and has been for the past 5 weeks. Not that I'm surprised, reddit is the worst social media platform by far, but still. I mean, Twitter is a cesspool, but you can at least sort of curate your feed a bit and it's easy to mute and block.

As much as I hate Bama right now at least we have a decent Bama fan on these boards

 

[DCDomer]

Look how giddy the ENTIRE ESPN crew is. Masks completely off for their hatred of ND. This is completely insane.

(Original poster is obviously an ND hater as heads up)

Osweiler has nothing but white noise playing in his brain at all times. That network is bottom of the barrel.

Demon speak. Something along the lines of get in line for the end of days.

 

[PutuporShutup]

I’ve had quick interactions and banter on the field with some of these corrupt espn and sec slime balls.

I’m giving them a piece of my mind next time even if it gets me taken off the field. Nothing over the top, just clearly articulate how pathetic they are. Especially Kirk and his use of the greatest breed of dog in the world to mask how slimy of a human he is.

Again, waiting to see if ND bans ESPN access to their campus, as they should.

I’d also look into suing due to collusion that could easily be proved.

Acc agreement needs ripped up.

 

[ReesusCrist]

Wait what??? Santa??? 🥺

My daughter will be as sad to hear this news as I was during the rankings show today.

He ain’t real and in the end he is

Temp ban for fork

How will I know what he thinks of LSU being underdogs to Houston in the Texas Bowl?

 

[Irishdawg]

At least we all know how he feels about them playing

Yeah it was/is painful. Damn shame because we are easily top 3 best teams. But whatever

 

[DomerInHappyValley]

Penn State vs. NCAA

All vacated wins returned
Post season ban removed
Etc etc etc.


The NCAA folds like a lawn chair as soon as the lawyers get involved and has for a long time.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

It’s funny to see everyone who stood in front of a camera the last two months railing against ND now standing in front of a camera saying how they should be angry and defending their outrage, now that the intended result has already been created.


Fuck them all.

Yup, I've seen snippets of Saban talking about how he hopes this "forces changes" after his corrupt, lying ass stood on the stage on Gameday yesterday and said "Miami kicked their asses." I used to really like Nick Saban, I was never a hater, I just appreciated the sustained level of excellence but he is just a mealy mouthed company man like any of the rest of them. Working behind the scenes with Kiffin and Sexton to campaign for LK to coach in the playoffs while his ass FIRED Kiffin befor the national title game because Lane couldn't do two jobs at once.

Your players are paid handsomely to play now. Fucking play. It’s a pussy, whiny move
in my opinion.

I get it. It sucks. ND was undoubtedly a top 12 team. Alabama, OU, Ole Miss, Tulane, James Madison are frauds. Again, it sucks.

But this “take your ball and go home” response is an awful, awful look.

The players got compensated for playing their season. I really don’t get this narrative that they’re bitching out to play in some exhibition game that means shit. Do they make another dime to play this meaningless game? I really don’t understand this line of thinking.

I like Saban too, but it's also like- coach, that game happened more than three months ago. We lost by 3. Bama lost by 21 yesterday. It's so insane.

 

[FDNYIrish1]

Twitter is for losers

I’m not sure if I should like this or tell you to fuck off for taking a shot at me and calling me a loser. Damn context

 

[Me2SouthBend]

Unless you’re interested in actually engaging in NDs POV, just fuck off.

FIFY

 

[Sizzlechest]

What I can’t understand is why the general fan hates that ND isn’t in a conference. The big 10 is taking private equity money and the SEC is full of their bullshit. The conferences have become corporations. Why wouldn’t fans respect and want more independence?

McMurphy's bowl exec contacts are having some feelings and he's doing everything he can to help em.
