    2025 College Football Playoffs

    Everything isn’t some conspiracy? You sure. Was the CFP committee decision to keep ND out rather conspiratorially? Cignetti did come out of nowhere!? Coming out of James Madison, IUP, and Elon is the definition of out of nowhere. He isn’t an innovator on the defensive nor offensive side. So...

    2025 College Football Playoffs

    I’m pretty convinced Indiana is juiced. Mendoza is at minimum on Adderall. Miami did not get flagged once vs OSU. Its trip to the championship game seems rather scripted. My interest in college football is becoming similar to professional wrestling. I know its fake and scripted yet...

    The Pete Bevacqua Thread

    When you exhibit weakness, you will empower bullies. The press conference was a joke. Pete needs shut up and follow thru with his veiled threats.

    2025 College Football Playoffs

    O Fuck Off. You actually think coaching can transform a bunch of 3 stars into a juggernaut overnight. Over F’n nite. I have more respect for that sleeve bag Brian big game Kelly than this charlatan Cignetti.

    2025 College Football Playoffs

    Their mid level players were outplaying 1st rounders. Sorry I don’t believe in fairy tales. Overnight Indiana has turned into a juggernaut with mid level players. You don’t go 0 to 100 at this level. Even Saban took years. That program is Lance Armstrong fishy.

    2025 College Football Playoffs

    IU’s turnaround is fishy as hell. I suspect they are on some juice. They don’t seem to tire. What I don’t understand is why the refs are giving them preferential treatment? Hilarious watching OSU getting the OSU treatment.

    Miami Postgame Thread

    I don't think we disguised our defensive schemes very well. Combine that with facing an experienced QB in Beck and our inability to win one on one match ups against Miami's massive OL, it was a pick your poison kinda of day for us and we slowly bled to a defeat. The rain and field conditions...

    2024 College Football Playoffs

    I agree. Worst possible match up. Refs will side with the underdogs which will help Indiana given how their Oline holds a lot.

    Purdue Postgame

    I don't think you can draw much from the game aside from how poorly coached Purdue is. They had no idea what they were doing. It was nice to watch the young guys play and play well. Questions going into the game were really not answered. RL is incapable of completing a down field pass which...

    ‘21 AL QB Riley Leonard (Duke Transfer - Notre Dame Verbal)

    No. Freeman wants like all coaches want to limit turnovers and the criticism and inference that it has played a part in the poor play is frankly stupid. If Leonard heeded Freeman’s advice, we would have won the game. Leonard is a JV Tebow. He has flashes of ability that all average QBs...

    The ND QB Conundrum

    There is no conundrum. Leonard makes the offense one dimensional, and we have a coordinator that wants to pass to setup the run. Even if the coordinator focuses on using Leonard’s strength, Leonard’s body is not built to withstand the constant hits. Freeman must make a change. Our QB...

    NIU Postgame

    The egregious calls were predictable. It was to even out things. If you watch professional sports enough, you will recognize the role of the Refs as gatekeepers. It is expected that an underdog will get some help from the Refs to offset the physical disparities. NIU Oline committed numerous...

    The ND QB Conundrum

    Kevin MacDougal was the best QB in the past 30 years, and that team was robbed of a NC.

    NIU Postgame

    Last year, we knew Leonard was inaccurate and lacked anticipation and dared him to beat us thru the air which he was unable to do. I think he is a tough gritty player but given his known limitations why did we pursue him. I don't get it.

    NIU Postgame

    False, OL played well and Leonard had time. Leonard problem is he is not a natural passer and lacks the ability to anticipate.

    NIU Postgame

    He was hurt and playing hurt from the second quarter on. Clearly there was no back up plan in the evident of injury. It was clear that any pass beyond 10 yards was a 50/50 ball and we were fortunate until the last ill advised throw.

    Texas A&M Postgame

    Gusty win. OL played relatively well given their lack of experience and the environment. Riley is tough gritty QB; but unless he improves his downfield passing, he will not last the season. Love and Price are terribly underrated. Both have elite speed and are one missed tackle/bad angle away...

    Tommy Rees - Offensive Coordinator

    If Rees isn't terminated for incompetence, then it is a sign that Alabama/Saban's reign is over. The core of the culture that Saban created was accountability. Keeping Rees after the horrific start of the year, the questionable personnel decisions (Buchner), and an inability to make in game...

    Louisville Post game thread (should be fun)

    Sigh. Yesterday's game falls squarely on the coaches. It had little to do with OSU, nor the schedule, nor it is another night game, nor frankly Louisville. We lost the game before it started. The game plan I discerned was to spread out Louisville and attack thru the air. Nevermind the...
