I mean I learned my lesson last year, I’m not going to worry about the CFP poll until the last one because that’s all that actually matters. I think you can go through my posting history and you’ll see that I’m quite the opposite of a bedwetter and I’m still not sure what has got you so upset...

I think barring things getting to be 2014 Van Gorder bad it will still be Ash

All those quotes and not a single one says they wouldn’t get in at 11-1 Ya’ll deal in absolutes too much here I don’t understand how you don’t think ND needs BYU to go on a tear to ensure they stay highly regarded

I never said they wouldn’t be in at 11-1, but having BYU undefeated Big 12 champs would pretty much solidify that barring a complete Miami collapse I’m probably one of the most sober people on this board btw. Folks on that playoff committee are just chomping at the bit to put a 13 next to ND in...

I mean my whole point originally was that we need BYU to look like an elite team and win out The AP Poll doesn’t mean a damn thing in 2026, the only thing that matters is the CFP poll and the final one at that.

No and I’m not really arguing, I’ve just watched how this committee has selected teams the last few years, and the process doesn’t exactly instill faith that they would do the right thing

They were squarely on the chopping block, essentially the same narrative they were spewing about ND last year I am fully aware they played IU in the playoff, I was in the stadium for it

Point still stands, Notre Dame now needs BYU to be considered a good team at the end of the year

No just stupid obviously. Guess I blacked out the last part of the season last year

They let Bama stay in after a quality loss to a 5-7 Auburn team 11 months ago, so

I’ve been banging the drum of not worrying about SoS all year at 12-0 it doesn’t matter It absolutely matters now at 11-1

Listen I get what ya’ll are saying and beating Miami would certainly go a long ways but they damn near left Indiana out at 11-1 in 2024 If you all think ND is 100% in control of their own destiny you have not been paying attention

Guys I hate to be the BEARer of bad news, but we actually need BYU to run the table now that ND isn’t in 100% control of their own destiny

Hot take: to the victors go the spoils and you get to say whatever you want when you win. Athletes use whatever they can for extra motivation and if getting used as leverage to get Knight to commit got that done for him then more power to him

Sea Turtle should have been perma banned after the whole Deuce Knight all is well debacle, imo
