2025 CFP National Championship - Ohio State vs. Notre Dame
Just as soon as Surly figures out how to have just one game thread. But yes we had that it was called New Year's Day. I'm hearing very little talk about the possible first Korean coach of a national title team. Perhaps I missed something? St Lou has had about ten different careers to be proud of. Even if he was only Woody Hayes's defensive coordinator who later hosted a decade of college football live, his obituary would still be in the top 1%. I play his motivational speeches when I need something more than coffee.

CFP 2024-2025 National Championship Final
I'm not as excited as I would be normally. This team is limping towards the finish line with injuries. (Do you notice the expanded post-seasons never include a contracted regular season?) Now we are playing for a national title supported by 49 states. This was already true when we went to the Sugar Bowl and it just got worse, we lost our LT tackle against PSU and his replacement has missed the entire season with injury. So the 2024 Notre Dame Fighting Irish story is already a success: We came in wondering if coach Freeman was qualified for the job after the usual 10-15 ranked recruiting class. Took an OC from the Brian Kelly coaching shrub, that we always complained about. Took a transfer QB whom we had mauled @Duke 2023 who can't pass. Opened with a road win at an SEC team, lost to Northern Illinois University at home (kept wondering). Then proceeded to run the table against a medium strength schedule only being threatened a few times. Screwed out of the 5th seed but can't talk because NIU. Broke a 30 year jinx by winning a major bowl against the backup qb. Made history by becoming the first team in history to win two major bowls in the same season 🙄 albeit against James Franklin. So where we were vs where we are. We are already ahead of where anyone expected. I'll still be bug eyed every play. Doubt I'll be livid this time tomorrow barring a ref job. FYI the local Texas club started chanting NOTRE DAME at the end of their gamewatch last Friday. How did some choose between comet and asteroid?

2024 Week 17 - Cotton Bowl CFP Semifinal Texas vs Ohio State
I dropped by the local UT gamewatch for the 4th qtr debacle. As soon the Eyes of Texas ended they started pounding the table chanting Notre Dame. The bar is set so high. First time since 1988 that 49 states have our back.

Tell Me About Notre Dame
I stopped by the local Texas gamewatch bar in the 4th qtr. About half a second after they finished Eyes of Texas, the Exes pounded the tables chanting Notre Dame Notre Dame.

2025 Orange Bowl - Notre Dame vs. Penn State
I'd take a fullback leading Love, Price, and Leonard. Heck that's a very talented wishbone. Our defensive injuries have all been to the front seven while the secondary has been mostly okay. Only SC was able to put up Gotti passing stats, and the Trojans came up dry with two fourth quarter pick 6s. So I guess I'm more worried about Ohio State which appears to have switched to a power running attack. The ball was intercepted before it arrived to the WR. It was per se uncatchable.
