Their coach said they were “going to let it all hang out”. Guess I can’t let my daughter watch with me.

Can't wait for Hicks and Garrett's commentary on that.

Latest episode of BBOC's G6 podcast just aired. ND hater Mike Calabrese is on Rice +44.5... He's still on tilt after his Wisconsin +21.5 bet went up in flames.

Watching Michael Denbrock closely.

If they do stumble again early or fail to cover without looking very explosive, we will all have to ignore the noise or get used to it... bc it will be coming from EVERYONE.

I don't know if he's generally a hater but I just watched the segment and I think you have an axe to grind if you think he's being unreasonable. He basically just said he thinks Rice's triple option style should bleed clock, Freeman has never beaten a triple option team by more than 40 because he starts bringing in back-ups early against those schools, and he thinks our secondary (which he praised) won't have as many opportunities for picks because Rice won't be passing. All of those points seem like good common sense if you're looking for a value bet.

His rationale was actually reasonable- I have no problem with that. The guy has a general dislike for ND that I've noticed over the course of several years now. He's an Italian guy from Philly and I'm pretty sure he's mentioned he was a PSU fan growing up.

I sometimes sail the seven seas when I can't find a way to pay for a stream... There are a lot of Sport based websites that have streams, but there's often a Surge of people watching them so sometimes you have to refresh a few times.

We lucked into a YouTube livestream of Wisky game while we're in Colombia. No idea how it didn't get shut down.
There were a half-dozen others (all with fox sports logos) that gave you maybe 10 mind of actual game then cut to some Trump speech...lather rinse repeat.

I have a shitty old laptop that's used exclusively for rough sailing like this. Highly recommended.

Surprised they haven't announced anything related to some type of Lou celebration for this game.

Something funky going on with Sagarin? Got ND listed as #1 but have them winning 24-21 this week?

Rice #118 btw. Thought that was weird

They forgot the first digit in our score.

I tried looking it up, and they appear ro have ND as the underdog. Seems safe to say there was some kind of typo or other error.

402puck · Sep 9, 2026

Fwiw, PEAR (which I believe is the artist formerly known as KFord), has them winning 47-0 so

PEAR has ND #2 overall, #3 offense #3 defense

Rice #115, #133 offense #87 defense

In Columbia you would have been able to watch the game on fighting Irish tv.
Ps I got that trump speech while trying to watch various other games on YouTube.

If Rice happened to beat ND would it still be less of an upset than when Northern Illinois did. Just still trying to get my head around that upset.

And people wonder why I’m always nervous about every game.

Not by point spread. The closing line for the NIU game was 28. I feel like this one would be worse.

No one wonders, we are all there.
Even during the bye week there is a chance of losing to cheeseburgers

They'll be talking about Marshall and NIU all week. They can't possibly come out slow and let these guys hang around, can they?

Hopefully not. I think if you win the toss, you want the ball first because of the offense these guys run. I think you also need to consider fourth down situations and bypassing field goals, which we all know Coach Free has zero issue with.

If a Freeman Notre Dame team can go unbeaten in September, sky is probably the limit for said team. He's yet to do it.
