1- ND goes 10-3 with a blowout loss to Oregon Jan 1
2- Brian Kelly flirts with the NFL, but will not be coaching anywhere in 2017
3- Ohio State loses to TCU in the natty and Urban eats a piece of pizza on a golf cart afterwards while combing thru his hair with his hand
4- UM goes 5-7
5- ND is coached by Mark Stoops in 2017

And thus ends my dream of a Patterson led ND squad... this one is truly depressing...

1. Greg Bryant comes back off suspension focused and eclipses the 1000-yard mark in a playoff game against OSU.

2. Torri Hunter breaks out and ends up a reliable, explosive threat to compliment Fuller in the starting lineup.

3. Malik is in the Heisman discussion following a win against USC

4. Jaylon Smith returns to ND for his final year of eligibility.

5. Shumate puts it all together and has a solid season, departing ND as a 3rd round draft pick.

1. We enter the second half against Texas down 2 scores. Win by double digits.
2. We are a run focused team until the Clemson game where we inexplicably throw 30+ times and lose late.
3. We rally to win the next 6 by double digits, but lose to Stanford after a questionable late call.
4. Jaylon returns for 2016.
5. ND runs the table in 2016 winning the Natty after dealing with multiple off season issues (Kelly flirts with NFL, Nico superman punches cop after being caught drinking, Tillery moves home to be with girlfriend, and 2 five stars leave the 2016 class after signing day).

Four truly bold predictions followed by the timeless, 'we are one year away' ND fan packaged response...

well done.

2. Trumbetti gets AA Honorable Mention.
3. Jaylon is consensus 1st team AA.
4. Tillery surprises everyone and becomes an unmovable stonewall as a freshman.

1. We have less than 20 sacks as a team this year

3. Will Fuller tops 1,200 yards receiving, but ends up with only 5 TDs.
4. Aliz'e Jones catches less than 5 passes

1. Notre Dame loses in a thriller in Death Valley. This turns out to be Clemson's only complete game of the year, and they clemson their way to losses to GT and FSU. Two loss GT wins the ACC.

2. Notre Dame wins the rest of their regular season match-ups. Two loss USC wins the PAC. Notre Dame, having a better record and having beaten the ACC & PAC champs, gets a playoff berth. Troy cries about it like the bitches they are.

3. ND's 2016 class ends up ranked number 10 after the strong season.

4. The entire staff stays for another year.

5. ND has four players drafted in the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft.

Bonus: Michigan and Penn State both have terrible seasons. Jim Harbaugh continues to embarrass the UM faithful, who grow increasingly desperate in their defense of his antics.

This Kool-Aid is delicious!! What did you guys put in this stuff?

You must've passed on the Kool Aid and went straight for the liquor.

Nothing sets off some Kool-Aid like Everclear!

But I'd bet on your's 77 before a handful of the Debbie Downers above... except #3 can't happen if #1 does first.

1.) We get outstanding interior d-line play from Day, Jones, Hayes, and Tillery. As a result, our linebacker have a field day against the run all season long and we will see an increase in production from Rochell and Trumbetti.

2.) Dexter Williams establishes himself in the first 4 games of the season and that puts himself in the running back rotation the rest of the year.

3.) We have the best CB duo in the country.

4.) Smythe and Alize both have 500+ receiving yards

5.) Fuller wins the Biletnikoff

None of this will probably happen

I could see where #5 actually happens. I think the SEC West comes down to Bama and Auburn with the winner facing Ga from the East. I could see a two loss Ga team beating the West representative (who may very well have two losses of their own going in), effectively eliminating the SEC from any chance at playoff contention.

UTjr winning the east? Did you see who Josh Dobbs beat last year? No one is intimated by a guy with no eye brows. They are a year or two away plus Butch Jones has one career win against the top 25.

A Saban lead team losing 4 games? They have the most talented roster in the country

Michigan winning 10 games? With Jake Ruddock?

TCU maybe I think they are overrated as Clemson is

Non SEC member? West is way to good not to have one. I think auburn wins it all

I like your bold predictions but those are very bold
