Just a hypothetical, say we lose tomorrow but beat Miami, are we still in the playoffs? Likewise say we win tomorrow but lose to Miami, same question?

We are in at 11-1

I’ll never not have those thoughts, my friend. For better or for worse.

I ignore ESPN as much as I can these days but is he really on the attack like that?

IRISHDODGER · Oct 16, 2026

All the ND talking heads assume BYU offense will be Bear running & then some mixed in passing. That leads me to go the other way when the talking heads are so adamant & in agreement. I think BYU schemes up a pass first opening drive and scores. They continue that tact until ND adjusts and neutralizes.

I used to watch ESPN non stop, they have gone downhill so much over the past 10 years

I think the BYU staff know their only real chance to win the game is through the air. They're just flat out not running the ball consistently enough to win the game. And despite what their mentally challenged media and podcast corps want, they're not running Bear 25 times this game. They still have to play the Holy War, they're not running Bear into the dirt.

I think they’re gonna run Bear a ton. I think you’re gonna see a lot of hero ball.

If so watch someone like Jay Snee knock him out of the game first Q

Bear might decide to run on his own, but I do not believe the BYU staff will purposely run him a lot. If so, well I would say that is borderline criminal negligence. Leonard could barely walk after that first drive in the NCG and the team backed off of running him as much and he wasn't himself for the next quarter or two. I get Bear is a big guy, but we have some big boys on the other side of the ball that will be looking to make him feel it.

From what I’ve heard on Notre Dame podcasts, Bear is not a drop back and throw it all over the field QB. He’s a one read, RPO/PA QB. And he struggles against man coverage. I think they need to run him.

ulukinatme · Oct 16, 2026

I think BYU pulls out all the stops. They'll run Bear as much as they need to, this win would be big for their season and optics. I don't think it'll be enough, they don't have the horses or the coaching.

Wouldn't be surprised if Sitake keeps him 'at bay'... If he gets hurt... Game over for sure.

ND's spy and LBs will be 'head hunting' him

If we lose the trash talk will be deserved and everywhere.

pumpdog20 · Oct 16, 2026

I'm not sure I've ever felt this relaxed-hyped for a top 10 match up, especially on the road. And that's not an overlooking or cocky thing, MFMF has us built different gents.

IT'S JUST WHAT WE DO!!

If they do, they should have a backup warm.

Alright this is a pretty good hype video. ND by 14 but game recognize game.

I live in Park City - heard some rumors but nothing definite and haven’t tried to confirm.

The picture is a joke, the report is real.
