  1. I mean, that's a fumble.
  2. I'm annoyed that I'm only allowed to like this post once.
  3. Notre Dame was kept out of the playoff by only scheduling 3 good teams and losing to 2 of them. They tried to work the system to their advantage, which I'm fine with. But I'm not going to feel bad for them when it backfires.
  4. Why, was there a child rape and institutional cover-up, too?
  5. Yep, I was there for UTEP, and DKR was as full for that game as it was for Vandy. Those big games are for TV. The ancillary benefit to the schools is a TV payout (I assume?) and a cool road trip for the fans. But it's not as if Texas and Notre Dame need each other to fill their stadiums.
  6. Was it that they didn't want to be there, or were they just that much shittier without their quarterback, thus validating the decision to leave them out?
  7. Follow-up question: Did you know that there is a penalty called "holding" that gets called frequently in games with non-SEC referees?
  8. WTF, was the ACC supposed to tell Miami to stand down in the hopes that the gesture would make Notre Dame like them more? This is some weird high school gossip for a bunch of adults.
  9. Hey, that woman is doing important research on how to stop autism and manage the next pandemic, okay?
  10. Touchdown, bitches!!
  11. I mean, 5 or 6 guys are on him within 2 seconds every dropback.
  12. Hey, 4 yards! That's an explosive play in this half.
  13. Hit of the millennium. Now get a yard in the 4th quarter, maybe.
  14. Can't believe Jesus knocked your ball into the post like that in front of all these people.
  15. Sit down, Mahomie!
  16. Just beat their ass then!!
  17. That's just a great drive. Defense can take this home.
  18. Holy shit, what a play!!
  19. I hate Miami. I also hope they boat race aggy's ass right out of the playoffs.
  20. And it's a hell of an experience for the players. Declining the bowl game absolutely sucks.
  21. Yeah, that's fair. I'm not exactly heartbroken for Vandy, but they do have a better sob story than Notre Dame. Vandy went 10-2 in the SEC. That's supposed to be enough. The fact that it isn't is really just variance. Most years, it is. That's very different from Notre Dame trying to stack the deck and it backfiring on them. And sitting out the bowl game is a bitchass move.
  22. Some took the easy road by being in a shitty conference. That's a problem with the format, and it needs to be addressed. But Notre Dame could have played 5 good teams, and if they'd gone 3-2 in those games, they wouldn't be in this predicament. Or, they could have joined a conference. It's not as if no one wants them. But no, they chose to stay independent specifically to have the easiest road to an at-large. Well, it backfired. No one should feel sorry for them. Hell, I feel worse for Vandy. It's not their fault that they got a weak SEC lineup when they were actually good.
  23. Notre Dame sitting out the bowl game is a huge fuck you to their seniors. Look, you played 3 good teams and lost 2 of those. Your other 9 wins are against air. And you're the one school with complete control of its schedule. You tried to take the easy road, and it bit you instead of helping you. Tough shit.
  24. Vegas needs to put up a prop bet on which of these two scrubby fucking pretenders loses worse.
