as per Jamie on ISD they had a white guy safety playing man coverage against Malachi Toney lol

he did correct himself and said it was a "Stanford white guy" safety which is white white

 

[Fbolt]

Whiter than a cracker from Wyoming?

Stanford sucks and we will need to blow them out by more than 39 to make up for playing at home. CJ Carr needs to throw for more than 400 yards against them and one of our WR needs to put up 200 yards. I don't make the rules.

I think MFMF realizes, for the first time in my adult life, ND needs to obliterate everyone to eliminate as many data points as possible in case we lay an egg or two somewhere down the road. Maximize every f-ing play against every f-ing opponent every f-ing week.

ND puts up 70 this week and 4Q backups ball out instead of running plain vanilla clock sucking garbage. 60 minutes of pain - LFG!

Yeah, I'm tired of watching backups not being allowed to full rip when games are in hand. I'm fine pulling starters but let the backups cook.

Miami up 4 spots for blowing out Stanford, ND down 2 for blowing out Wisconsin to the CBS writers. Could have used a 4 spot bump end of last year for such a big task!

Why does this matter?

 

[RDU Irish]

I want to see some Kedren Young this weekend. Dude looked like a mini-bus. I like the idea of him as a between the tackles/short yardage dude for us. Looks like a game wrecker but do we have a game breaker? I like what Nolan flashed as a receiver and in open space. Williams' reliability and versatility are his super powers. Pretty damn good three headed monster there.

Would love to see some flashes from young WRs. That unit seems ripe for a young dude that is hard to keep off the field. Three frosh are four star recruits - we need to develop some elite capabilities out of the WR unit by year end. If that trio isn't making high end contributions its a class bust IMO. Plenty of reps to go around and CJ knows how to read the field.

When is the last time a team won 11 games in a row by double digits?

2022 Buckturds?

It was every game that season until Michigan beat them.

Why does this matter?

I think it's just a good reason to say "CBS sucks ass, and don't know ball."

 

[greyhammer90]

I do think it's funny that this narrative has taken hold while our offense is ranked between #1-#5 in the country by nearly every notable advanced analytic poll.

Especially considering last year Bud’s concern was ND’s offense relying on too many big plays 🤷🏻‍♂️

 

[Irish#1]

Why does this matter?

It doesn't. No one gives a crap about CBS rankings except CBS.

I feel like this is something I would gift my Penn State friends...if I had any Penn State friends.

Still number 1 on Sagarin

[NumbersGuy0520]

SP+ has us as the top overall offense (feels wild to say) and in a dead heat (all within .3) with OSU and Georgia for #1 team overall.

Miami in 4th (3.4 points behind us) so we’d be about TD favorites if the Miami @ ND game were played right now.



Onward. Keep winning, stay healthy, leave no doubt.

Oregon losing + the OSU / Texas game seems to have broken Sargarin lmao. Look at this top 20.

Michigan State guy about to learn next weekend.

 

[Dale]

6th place voters: MSU, Texas, Cuse
7th place voters: OU, OSU

Cuse guy has Ole Miss and LSU above us
OSU guy ranked OSU 3rd, had us 8 last week
We are behind OSU in 4 of the 5

 

[calvegas04]

ND guy is worthless

Those boys are about to learn.

Is Rece Davis doing penance or something? Was not expecting him to be our lone first place vote.

 

[GowerND11]

Texas dude having them 4th, OSU 5th and us 6th is… interesting…

 

[NotKoon]

If BYU and Miami both don’t lose before they play ND, they will have 2 top 10 matchups on the schedule
