2025 College Football Playoffs

Notre Dame vs Indiana would have been a battle...

 

[laughingirish92]

i work with multiple IU fans who laughed at me for saying this but i told all of them this week that if our irish didn't get screwed out of the playoffs for a crap bama team that we would have had a good shot to beat them in the rose bowl as we would have had several injured players back and that the IU defense would've had a harder time stopping our offense

 

[drayer54]

How bad was Texas Tech?

I get it that we are all ND fans first but IU winning it all IMO is better than Miami winning it all. I know I'll catch some shit for saying that but hell I said it.

I would rather IU win, as well. Not sure why anyone associated with ND would want Miami to win. Their team next year will be completely different from this year so there is no value to them winning. And I feel like there has been a very quick turn from the general "fuck the ACC" that doesn't make a lot of sense.

No way. Having Indiana as the nation champion will kick ND in the nads.

I doubt they care that much at the moment. They're likely going to watch this team hoist a national title crown in 10 days.

This is the perfect example of how overrated Oregon and Lanning are. The entire program from recruiting on up is predicated on money. There's no culture. No discipline and they're just overall not mentally tough.

 

[NDpendent]

This season has jumped Indiana into one of my top five team favorite college teams; they are fun to watch, love Mendoza and Cig is even growing on me

How dare you, the Big 12 is the cream of the crop and ND should be so lucky as to.join them.

 

[Dizzyphil]

Tough to beat TCU losing 65-7 in the natty

We'll see

Same team a it was going back to Chip Kelly. Run up scores on bad teams, get exposed by anyone who has any level of physicality and solid fundamentals.

 

[irishff1014]

Indiana beat Oregon at Oregon round 1. And you f to they are kicking their ass.

There is not a good option for ND this year. We become little brother to IU or we watch a hated rival win it all. There’s nothing good in college football for ND fans. Hopefully we win it all next year but seeing how down everyone is in the portal thread…😔

 

[Bluto]

What a sad field goal attempt. Lol.

 

[greyhammer90]

Other than a few reddit jokes that will come from this literally nobody cares that Notre Dame is in Indiana.

 

[Ndaccountant]

The line play of Miami can be a real difference. It actually is probably the team in the playoffs that matches best to IU.

 

[MPClinton22]

Oregon should start getting the rep that we had from the beat downs we took in the playoff. Two absolute shellackings two years in a row

 

[Pointman02]

IU. I’ll take the Catholic nerd qb, disciplined low penalty team, over Miami any day.

I’ve struggled to really decide, but I think you’re right.

 

[Bluto]

If they don’t turn it over multiple times in their own red zone and throw a pic six to start things off it should be a good game.

Indiana just looks way better coached and motivated.

It’s also laughable to think IU has to go all the way for people to form this opinion.

These people have already made up their minds and will still have it anyways.

Yeah the only people who are going to make a big deal about it are the Notre Dame beat writers, the people who love shitting on Notre Dame the most.

 

[Rocketman84]

Oregon is getting absolutely destroyed right now

The OL looks like the "Replacements"Chiefs OL in that Super Bowl they gifted for Brady. Moore is getting smashed or having to roll to his right on damn near every throw.

Who cares who wins national title? Some of you guys take twitter and reddit banter/discourse too seriously. I don't care for Cig but he has backed up his shit talk so I'm over it. I'll probably pull for IU in the title game, I just don't like Crisotbal or Beck. If Miami won though, whatever. Season starts again in August.

This season (and everything that has happened after it) has taught me that I don't like any other team. I only have varying levels of hate for anyone who isn't us.

 

[notredomer23]

 

[NDWarrior]

Yeah, I have been thinking Miami, but the one thing you mention is Cig and a disciplined team; that's not so much Miami.

And the one factor with Miami is I just don't think Cristobal is all that great of a coach, this season notwithstanding, so maybe IU will win the whole thing and prove me wrong.

One thing that is likely a factor in tonight's game tho' is that maybe (more like likely) Oregon is not really that good of a team.

I don't see it that way at all. Both teams path to their success is different. IU is portal and development while ND is recruiting and development. I get it that IU winning it all doesn't help ND but it sure isn't the killer that many people think. How many recruits are we loosing out to IU for? Maybe it will be different in the next 5 years but I also think the whole landscape of college football will be different in the next 5 years.

Exactly. There's nothing wrong with not giving a shit about any of these teams, how they play, or even what they win. They're not Notre Dame. We're NOT on some SEC-type shit. We lost in this equation. Get better or continue losing.

 

[laughingirish92]

if mostly healthy next season IU fans will watch our irish be the best team in Indiana next season as they roll over team after team going into the playoffs
