Oof, too soon??

Portal time!! Haha

Ugh, I know a lot of deals are supposedly happening "behind the scenes", but it's going to be frustrating watching all these transfers happen and not knowing where we will fall until AFTER we win the NATTY this year!

As I said in the other thread, get past IU by playing sound football. Just let the talent take over. And, then, Georgia is getable with how beat up they are and how physical we can be.

We did this with USC and just never got home. Maiva (sp?) was good at identifying the single coverage and tossing it up. Also USC receivers won more than their fair share of 50/50 balls. I think IU will have a hard time doing that.

I thought the same. They were kund of bouncing back and forth while discussing both but I interpreted Botellos as being the more severe injury.

Not sure Kris Mitchell will be singing the praises of NDs passing offense…

Get past IU and then it’s time to exercise some demons… I’m liking our draw more and more by the day.

IU fans might be willing to shell out more for game tix because they won’t have thousands of dollars in travel expenses to get there.

I didn’t love the use of the term “should”. Seems to be some hedging.

I honestly like our side of the bracket better than being the 5 seed. I get the first round game lost some luster and we wanted a souther team to travel north, but our path is Indiana, beat up Georgia and maybe Penn State to get to the finals. Sign me up.

Oh snap. I thought we were talking about Sneed. My B as the kids say.

He’s played quite extensively the past 5 or 6 games, and played pretty well.

Perhaps, if the outgoing transfer from ND was a contributor like Sneed. However, if say, one of the younger OL who has gotten beaten by a classmate/younger player transfers out (and is not playing), I doubt ND would then seek to replace them in the portal.

Not to mention, Ohio State only dropping 3 spots after losing to a terrible .500 team at home! Other teams have dropped 8-10 spots in that situation earlier in the season. Apparently that game absolutely didn't matter to the committee.

Everyone has to keep in mind this "system" was built on the idea of how the conferences looked before all the realignment. And, had teams not moved, it would have made sense. You'd likely have had Oregon (Pac 12), Texas (Big 12), Georgia/whomever (SEC) and Miami/Clemson (ACC) as your 4 highest...

I'm not sure how it could be just 6? WR - 1 to 2 (one of them better be a true number 1) DT - 2 (We HAVE to have 2 quality guys here) Nickel - 1 (our nickel needs continue) Vyper - 1 (Maybe Traore and Botello are ahead of schedule in recovery but doubt it) That leaves you without a safety, a...

Right which is why I said half the season.

I think if it plays out this way, you'll have a bunch of unhappy ND fans. No reason Carr shouldn't be in a position to start. He had 15 bowl practices, 15 spring practices, all summer, all fall camp and half the season of practice. Plus he'll get all of that again this year. I get, he's not...

Last week proved we need several. Not sure u can count in Botello ever being the same and I doubt Traore is healthy to start the season
