Miami should be thankful they didn't make the ACC championship game.

If you're not in the running for a bye you're better off not having to play in a championship game. fuged up but true.

And I know they say that championship game losses aren't held against you but that's bullshit unless it fits what they already wanted to do (Bama in). If Miami had played last night and lost they'd be out along with BYU and ND would've been in. The whole "championship game losses don't hurt you" narrative would've died an awful death. LOL

Notre Dame was playing well and are a good team but on paper they didn’t beat a top team and lost the 2 games they played against them.  I think they got it right considering the rules/criteria.

I agree. Their schedule had two top teams and they lost both games. The crying about it has reached ridiculous levels. ND is just so use to getting their way and forcing inclusion based on ratings. They (fans) even had the gall to complain about Miami losing to SMU and Louisville even though both spent time in the top 25 (not just preseason) as if they were horrible teams yet ND made it last year losing to a legitimately bad team in Northern Illinois.

I laugh at people like Vic Lombardi saying it’s wonderful that ND called a wambulance to announce they’d skip a bowl game as if that should earn them respect. They just did that to avoid a potential embarrassing loss after all the crying.

I'm indifferent to Notre Dame overall. Not a hater. However if they don't play a championship game against another competitive team they can't cry about Alabama 3rd loss. Play that extra game then you have a legitimate argument.

    • This is where I'm at. Dowdle is a feel good story and glad he's proving his doubters wrong. I just don't see how we keep our OL intact (which is the right move) and spend on another RB after giving Chuba his money. Though the odds are against him, I do think Brooks can still be our RB2 next year..and if he stays healthy, our longterm RB1. Having the full offseason with no pressure to try and come back like last year will help. I'm also happy to see he and TD have been connecting.  If this team is smart, they go into next year with Chuba/Brooks/ETN and sign a Dowdle-light version in FA at minimum cost. Chuba is in his prime and a full offseason to fully recharge will only benefit him more. Dowdle is unfortunately a luxury item I don't think we can spend our money on. We still have other areas of need that we have to improve on the defensive side of the ball. 
    • last time they loaded the box, shut down the run and forced BY9 to beat them, we saw the result of that. So what can we do this time to beat them? I suspect it's going to require a lot of short / intermediate passes with TE play to help
    • Floyd Mayweather Jr. made hundreds of millions off realizing this. He was an exciting boxer in his early days but watching his dad and uncle struggle with the effects of taking thousands of punches to the head he realized he was skilled enough to good guys without putting himself at risk and he'd just wait for other elite guys to lose a step before facing them. The whole WWE-esque "Money" persona was built around the realization that it doesn't matter if they're watching to see you win or watching hoping you'll lose, all that matters is that they're watching. Force them to love you or hate you, just make sure they care enough to tune in. We had a similar situation with Cam. Everyone felt some kinda way about Cam. You couldn't find many NFL fans who were neutral on Cam Newton. Is was love or hate but either way it was must see TV.
