So glad the playoffs are here as well as NIL. The SEC is no longer going to be able to manipulate themselves into championship games without earning it and just claiming they are the best conference ever. In years past, none of these teams in the semifinals even make it and we get the usual SEC bias lovefest. Expanding the field is the best thing to happen. Settle this on the field, not by old geezers in a conference ballroom. 

Texas and Penn State would have been in the field this year.  Ohio State and Notre Dame would not have.

Biggest ND win since when? Lou Holtz was coaching?

Yup. 1993.

I’d say since 1988 when they beat WVU for the national title. In 1993 they beat #1 FSU and then the next week lost to BC and then beat A&M in their bowl game to finish #2, behind FSU. Still, don’t think they officially claim 1993.

Yeah but that game of the century was still a bigger win.  The hype was unbelievable.  This is only a quarterfinal.

Exactly. That win was bigger than a quarterfinal, the BC choke notwithstanding. 

I get what you guys are saying but, in terms of wins that resulted in a national championship the WVU win gave them one. And this win today gives them a shot. 

I’m not an ND fan by any stretch and in 1988 we damn near beat them but, fucked it up, like we always do. I still think the game with WVU is a bigger victory than the win over FSU.

We’ll just agree to disagree.
