We all deserve this. Anyone who sat back and allowed the committee to be formed with massive conflicts of interest, assuming they’d all remain neutral, has just been bent over. Thank you sir may I have another. The hell are we even doing here? Computers only! No more fucking ADs or affiliated...

Deboer to scUM. Cignetti to Bama. IU back to reality.

If you play a FCS school, you should get the SOS kiss of death. Period.

USC is actively trying to get out of playing ND, aren't they? The teams you listed as "alliances" to build a schedule upon would tank ND's SOS and practically disqualify them from the CFP on that data point alone.

My understanding is 1) Bigger schools are beginning to pull back on the idea of scheduling difficult OOC games. and 2) Conference teams are not willing to schedule ND in the heart of their conference schedules. So finding games in Oct/Nov may prove difficult.

In the last 48 hours I've done a complete 180. I love and support ND's independence, but there is a feeling in me now that perhaps it's run it's course and it's time to join the B1G as a full member. Or at least have the groundwork in place for it to happen at some point in the near future as...

I missed this post. Too many threads talking about the same stuff. Anyways, the bolded is what I brought up yesterday (IIRC). There is a part of me that sees the wagons circling. Perhaps the B1G is sitting back, licking their chops. If ND tips their hand and loses leverage, they run the...

Wet dream status: He can't talk about ND because the ACC got served papers. Boom!

I used a vague analogy (it's not perfect) with a friend the other day: It's sort of like if Dasani water ran a media blitz attacking Coke in trying to prove how much better water is for you than pop. Like yea, we get it Dasani. Water is better for you than pop, but you're attacking the...

I thought about this too. People are downplaying other ND sports. No they don't bring in millions in revenue like football. But lacrosse, soccer, women's bball (I'm probably missing others), have been pretty dominant. ACC shouldn't take that for granted.

That's the point! ND was like "WTF bro." Pete B texted and called Jim about it and they only proceeded to continue to do it.

ND is also 32-7 against the ACC since their partial member agreement. Yet none of those wins counted as conference losses to the opposing teams. ND doesn't take a seat at their conference championship table. And yes, ND is entirely responsible for their sellouts. I heard Jamie and Greg say...

The irony in "ND needs to join a conference! Harrumph!" and then ND turns around and creates a massive Super League.

Good write up of events. I'll say it again. Notre Dame needs to sue ESPN. Gloves off. Go right at them. As a potential favorite to win the whole thing, sue them for the full amount of payout. Tell the world that this is not okay and will not be tolerated. Everyone is trying to make this...

Can someone explain to me the benefit of this MOU and the automatic qualifier for Top 12 and up? 1) College football already thinks that ND gets preferential treatment. Is that not what this is? 2) If it's protection from a similar situation as this year, what is stopping the committee from...

Correct. It was illogical for him to say that because of said rankings going into the game. I am not kidding when I say that someone needs to find a way to sue the committee and espn. I'm not a lawyer. I have no idea if it's possible or how you'd even prove it. But something has to be done...

Needs a wedgie/swirly combo and stuffed into a locker. Make it happen.

Haha. That's fair. I just found it crazy that someone who played football at a very high level and now sits on a podcast talking about football, you'd think he'd know the ESPN/ACC affiliation. I mean it's all over their broadcasts. Also in fairness, I truly wonder how many casual people...

Thankyou. I haven't read this whole thread yet, but there seems to be a huge pitchfork reaction to the CFP snubbing that suddenly ND is going to annihilate teams next year in route to a championship. I'm actually in "let's see" mode because of losing Love and Price. Love especially was the...

Same, although I might tune in to watch IU and OSU curb stomp whichever SEC team they play.
