Indiana at Notre Dame Round 1 Playoffs

[ztejas 44,328]

When a RB is beating your entire D's ass it's probably time to cut the lights off. 

[notre dame joe 208]

IU will need a 4th unblocked defender to bring down Love.

[troph 25,334]

Holy fuck they can’t tackle 

[Rickylovesweed 15,666]

These takes are always annoying but I don't think he's wrong.

Echoing a point made already 20X: Indiana is a joke of a team to be in the playoffs

yep.  ND is also faster.  the missing tackles usually exposes your speed/quickness deficiency.

Molly McGrath makes me happy in pants.

The “better” teams should’ve lost less. 

[BabaYaga 15,675]

Damn.   Good pass and catch.  

[DaysOff 8,266]

Expect more of this. What if I told you 12 teams is too many. Expansion wasn't about the best 12, but giving G5 and lesser teams a chance. What do the Texas Techs and aggys of the world tell themselves every September 1st?

I don't think there's 12 worthy teams most years.

I don't care who 9 thru 12 is when it comes to the play offs. Notre Dame would have probably put away Alabama also. Fix the seeding and end up with the best 8 teams after round one and I will be happy.

There aren't. 

It's just going to lead to a bunch of snooze fests like this one.

9-12 is always gonna be questionable 2-3 loss teams

 

the playoff really needs to be just 4 teams

Please; they didn’t play the same schedule dip shit. 

[Huckleberry 35,048]

The percentage of times that defenders fall for the athletic QB reverse spinout is crazy. 

[ClubWhatever 12,374]

Not gonna call holding, huh

[DaysOff 8,266]

Fine with me. 

Me too. Expect some snooze fests.

Doesn’t matter, an 11-1 Big 10 team wasn’t ever getting left out this year. Lose less.

[BabaYaga 15,675]

ND defense is fast and tackles well in space.   Offense is weak.  
 

GA defense is stout.  They have an unproven backup QB that has film out now.   Game has all the trappings of a boring, low scoring snooze fest.

yep.  there is no "get hot from 3" or "decide not to rebound at all against ACU" in football.  you get beat in the trenches, barring a ridiculous TO margin, you get beat.

How? They won’t run against UGA with any of their rbs or their QB. Georgia has more dudes and is much faster. 

They absolutely can run against Georgia. Texas fans have a seriously inflated view of Georgia's defense because of our two games.

ha. Big 12 called the requisite 1 holding call early.

Did someone smushDan Mullens head or has it always been that flat.

Not all of us. Georgia isn't that good. Quinn Ewers is just a dorky QB so we lost both games.

We’ll never know

[Hamttx 438]

I’m not so sure if 12 is a bad number. I’m old enough to remember the NCAA’s expansion in 1975. Yeah, initially there were snoozers, but it got better. So much so that the Cinderella thing really made it fun to watch. Given time I think this will improve too.

I always thought 6 was the right number with 2 teams getting a bye way back when 4 was being discussed but NIL and the portal has introduced parity and in today's football 4 and 6 is to few. All the teams this year are flawed and any of 6 to 8 teams if they got hot could win it this year.

Bitch about the “best” two teams not matching up because of conference champs obligated to certain bowl games. Bitch about computers matching up the two best teams. Bitch about a four team playoff. Bitch about a 12 team playoff. Bitches gonna bitch I guess.

Just wait until ASU and Boise State get their asses reamed in the next round. Nice going CFP.
