    Slow start, poor shooting. Boy did they correct that midway through the first half and never looked back

    2025 Week 11 Prediction Poll: Navy @ (10) Notre Dame

    I mean it's always critical but you can get away with a lot on a 13 yard kick

    I think partially in response to the ND haters propping them up as hopefuls to upset ND.

    2025-2026 ND Basketball Thread

    I think Detroit will be SLIGHTLY better than people think this year, they return basically everyone, and Montgomery was a good hire from the Izzo coaching tree, now in his second season. Doesn't mean they will test ND...I think they'll finish middle of the pack in the Horizon though. Agreed...

    2025 College Football Playoffs

    This is a really good hypothetical question. The expanded playoff tried to keep the CCGs relevant with the auto-bids but they've effectively made them watered down nonsense. I could see Cignetti and IU playing that game all out since they haven't won a conference title in like 60 years, but...

    2025-2026 ND Basketball Thread

    Back in action tonight on ACCNX against Detroit-Mercy. -21.5 favorites. that's a big #, but the Titans have been abysmal for the past decade+. Might sprinkle some cash on a cover here. ND won by a wide margin against a much better team earlier this week.

    2025 Week 11 Prediction Poll: Navy @ (10) Notre Dame

    I kicked extra points in HS and I think I missed one in four years... and in no way is that a brag. I wasn't even good enough to have ever attempted an actual FG. That's just how easy PATs are. Sad state, indeed.....

    Definitely my primary concern every year; hope not having Hinish/Rubio this weeks means one or both will be ready to go in Pittsburgh next weekend. At any rate, might be a good thing they aren't going this week so that they can avoid injury. Hopefully the next men up are ready for the FB dive...

    I sure as hell hope not. My liver will not survive this type of game.

    2025 Week 11 Prediction Poll: Navy @ (10) Notre Dame

    It's only something to worry about if you aren't scoring yourself. Otherwise Navy is shooting themselves in the foot. You can't play keep away when you're down 3 scores. Navy has one of the worst pass defenses in the entire country, and that's not even factoring in what would happen to them...

    2025 College Football Playoffs

    Which makes sense from the CFP Committee's perspective. They want those early CFP games to be as competitive as possible. Blowouts aren't good for ratings.

    USC recruiting and everything else

    Where did you see this suggested? TTU would be crazy to fire McGuire. 1) He's the only coach who's had a modicum of success since Mike Leach; nobody before him won more than 8 games since Leach, and 8 wins is a feat Kingsbury and Tuberville each accomplished once. 2) they'd be absolutely...

    2025 Week 11 Prediction Poll: Navy @ (10) Notre Dame

    Normally I'd be a little weary of playing a one-loss Navy team, but the sleepy effort against BC last week has me expecting a blood bath. ND will be sharp offensively against an overmatched Navy secondary; if Navy tries to mimic the Eagles' loading the box tactics, Carr will be ready. He goes...

    As much as I love that, pOSU still exists...and I believe plan to keep their football program around in 2026.

    2025 Week 11 Prediction Poll: Navy @ (10) Notre Dame

    The vast majority of us thought ND was going to ship up to Boston and roll the overmatched Eagles, but unfortunately that didn't quite happen. As a result, only six posters got last week's margin of victory correct with ND 11-19. Really only a couple to note: @PatrickBateman picked up his...
