Oregon is the the original Texas Tech - one mega booster trying to buy a championship with his money.

My opinion is also clouded by living on the West Coast and despising Oregon/Oregon fans IRL, but I hope they never win a championship. They can buy anything else they want - just not sports glory.
I went to college with someone from Oregon and was a huge UO fan. He was definitely the most annoying "fan" ever. I have despised anything Oregon related since. I hope they never win anything because of it.

Is it about the script or that it is generally evident within 15-20 plays whether there is a disparity of talent/bad matchups?

Ryan Day makes some horrible decisions when the game goes live. The script is usually a banger before that.

Yeah. I can't bring myself to root for any of these teams.
Miami and IU fans suck.
Bama doesn't deserve to be there.
Texas Tech's coach seems like an asshole.
Ohio State won last year. Georgia is boring.
I guess I have no particular beef with Oregon or Ole Miss. But Ole Miss doesn't have the horses. So... go Ducks?

Personally, I would want Ohio State, Bama, or Georgia, since that would be a “status quo” result.

Someone else wins, you have another at the top of the pile that “got it done” when ND is still looking at a title from almost 40 years ago.

These guys have no idea how stupid they look

Oh I think they're well aware.

Honestly, had it been the Gator Bowl or some other game with a smidge of dignity, I think a lot more likely we'd have accepted the bowl invite. I appreciate Pop Tarts' effort to stand out amid so many mid bowls, but it's hard to swallow if you actually believe you should be playing in the Rose Bowl next week.

I can’t believe Notre Dame didn’t want to partake in this
Imagine all the crumbs in all the swag bags players and coaches get…

Cant wait to tune into the game just to see what kind of crowd they pulled.

This is a reference I doubt many people will get but for anyone who watched New Japan Pro Wrestling & remembers the storyline of Tetsuya Naito and his hatred of the IWGP Intercontinental Championship. He wasn’t able to win the promotions world championship and in storyline he hated their secondary championship so when he won he threw the belt around and even once on his way to the ring here it so hard it was smashed against the ring post. The wrestling fan in me would’ve loved it if we had played in this bowl won it then just threw the trophy down & didn’t claim it. I know that wouldn’t happen, I know by doing that there would prolly be consequences that wouldn’t be good for the program but still it’s something I would’ve been happy to see.

I love the hate we get

it hurt bad being deliberately left out but our players telling the whole system to go fuck themselves really cheered me up

watching the patsies Tulane and JMU get worked and have poor ratings also made my heart warm

The contortion the Irish haters continually twist themsevles into also makes me smile

if we are so irrelevant why do they care so much?

By the way Oregon is not going to win the NC unless about five other teams are disqualified and they do not have to play anyone.

I wish we played, won, then gave the trophy a suplex followed by a ddt!

I disagree. The hate hasn’t been so called good hate like hating Miami, FSU or the Cowboys. It’s truthfully been a pretty shitastic few weeks as a Notre Dame football fan

We haven’t had any good news whatsoever and this Freeman thing … fuck … that could tank a lot of built up momentum and goodwill

I’m just ready for some good news for once. J Love changes his mind!?!?

Seems like yesterday when Keith Jackson was calling the historic Pop Tarts Bowl in Oakland Alameda County Coliseum when the Trojans of SC faced off against the Wolverines of Michigan. Man what a memorable game that I bet all those players & fans remember vividly. Wait…being told that Crocs have been around longer than the Pop Tarts bowl & it’s just being hyped in a childish attempt to make Notre Dame look bad.

Really exciting first halves in the Penn St/Clemson and Pitt/East Carolina games.

A total of 19 points between the two games. Can't believe we didn't want to be a part of this abortion
