I was thinking that there are some possible rainbow and sunshine scenarios: 1. Bama wins and BYU loses - I think ND can stay there. Committee already evaluated ND and Miami with total resume and that's favored ND. Nothing about the UM-Pitt or ND-Stanford games changes that. 2. Boise State...

Priority #1 is making the field However, if we make it, the current 10 seed would be amazing. That path to the semi final would be one that favors ND. Unfortunately, ND is more likely to end up matched with tOSU in the second round at 8 or 9.

Can we stop posting obvious troll "parody" accounts, even in a satirical manner? It's a waste of time and space and there's no humor in it or discussions worth having over fake news.

That play did not get nearly the amount of discussion it should have during the broadcast or afterwards. A player seemingly intentionally trying to hurt a Heisman candidate is a big deal. We collectively watch thousands of individual tackles during each football season and how often do you see...

Not sure if you're being serious or just making a joke. It's almost certainly Jajuan Seider's decision... Denbrock was OC last year with a 5 man rotation and McCullough as RB coach

John Brice's article explaining the CFP ranking process suggests that these are the metrics the committee is looking at, not just wins and losses. That's very good for ND. Remember, ND was the highest ranked 2-loss team for the entire CFP ranking stretch until Oklahoma beat Alabama, which gave...

As of right now I don't see it reported anywhere else... Was it a legit news item or message board speculation until we hear otherwise?

I think he meant: My good sir, may I express my deepest dissatisfaction in the old bushwhacker pigskin coach in the event that a hereto unknown gentleman is deemed necessary to grace the hallowed formations of Our Lady. I do reserve the contingency to divert my expressions shall an individual...

Being in the legacy PAC-12 territory, this is what that conference used to do for USC who still spit in their have and caused it to implode. The only "cold weather" destination games were either in early October or early kickoff times in November. Miami has back-to-back noon kickoffs in...

I don't know how long you've been a visitor to the boards before signing up, but the nice thing about the format of this board is that we tend to keep topics together under a bigger umbrella. All of this discussion would be in Tae's post which dates back to his original recruiting profile...

You use very sound, rational, well thought out logic...But the pea brain part of me still thinks that this could still happen. I know things never work out perfectly in CFB but I've had disappointment before. Oklahoma doesn't have the toughest test with a depleted LSU and Mizzou. Mississippi...

I've been following the Virginia Tech search for a bit now - I have family who are die heard legacy fans. James Franklin is rumored and heavily connected to the position with multiple reports. However, sounds like they have been waiting on an answer since Monday when the school made a "best...

Remember, ND's defense was good but gave up touchdowns on 100% of red zone possessions that year (or close to 100%). Many fans were angry about it and all of the beat reporters kept insinuating that Al was going back to the NFL that off-season. The subtext was that it would be "encouraged" for...

Always a reminder that perspective is everything. The Bowen coverage on Hollywood is the biggest clenched cheeks to sigh of relief moment for ND fans. Something had think we got lucky with. For NC State, that was the nail in the coffin. Their best player couldn't do anything against our...

The most amazing part of these throws is that Eli is at least the 3rd if not 4th read in his progression. The throws by themselves are amazing, but even more so when he's got other options in mind first then going to the TE.

The PAC-12, which USC essentially thought they were too good for, protected them like crazy when it came to scheduling. They never had to play November road games in Pullman or Corvallis, it was only ever early October day games when the weather was pleasant. I would honestly believe it if...

Having 0 information about the case directly or indirectly (other than Brice on the podcast), I wouldn't be surprised if he developed an underlying infection that required removal of the hardware and a washout. Probably weeks of IV antibiotics in those cases. Again, just a guess but that fits...

I know what you're saying but man coverage scheme doesn't mean the same thing as press coverage technique. One pertains to what the team is doing and the other pertains to how the individual defender. It's easy to see when a player is tight technique on the line of scrimmage to jam. However...

I'm beginning to think I'm the perfect amount of engaged and disconnected as a fan. I know enough that there's some sort of QB competition and some beat writer brouhaha about who it's going to be. I didn't bother to dig deeper than that. This whole time I figured I would just wait until August...

The QB position will be alright in the end, regardless of who the coaches decide. Based on observations today (and Orange/Sun Bowls) - Carr has the two best throws down field today. The throw to Bauman may have been overturned in a game for being out of bounds but the touch and distance where...
