All the Notre Dame haters know that a trip to the title game is looking more and more likely for the Irish. I personally think Oregon will lose to Stanford and if ND can beat USC they will play KState in the big one.

Oregon isn't going to lose to Stanford.

If you guys can beat USC is a big question. On the road, in what will surely be a game they will be up for, as I'm sure they would love to spoil your season. I think you guys go down there, but it's been a great season.

Indian Charlie 11-11-2012 02:24 PM

There are two teams in the top 10 that ND absolutely has no chance of being within 17 points of at the end of the game.

They happen to be K State and especially Oregon.

The vaunted ND defense would be badly exposed.

Danzig 11-11-2012 03:25 PM

alabama losing should illustrate perfectly to everyone that any team can lose at any time.

pointmanscousin 11-11-2012 03:50 PM

Finally, fine work by Danny.


Although it has been proven long before 'Nana's loss.

Those who say, Team A will not beat Team B....are lost in their own high opinions----of themselves.

Good call. Almost seemed like Oregon wanted to lose tonight with the way they played and were coached. another choke by Oregon.

Well, except for the K-State part.

Danzig 11-17-2012 10:42 PM

People dont like the system, but every game matters. So, who gets in or knocked out next week??
And then the conference games.....

Gotta love that college ball

Dahoss 11-17-2012 10:46 PM

I still think USC beats Notre Dame which would really make a mess of things.

But obviously, they don't all matter. LSU beating Alabama didn't matter one iota last year. Most likely, neither will A&M beating Alabama. What matters is Alabama just happened to lose first, so for some reason that gets rewarded.

Danzig 11-17-2012 11:06 PM

In regard to final standings, bowl and conference games, they all matter. What happens next week matters too. The iron bowl, dame vs usc....who plays georgia in atlanta in the sec. Probably bama, but its not set in stone yet.

Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. Saying "they all count" is a bunch of BS perpetuated by those in favor of bowls, and now the BCS. You now have Notre Dame and a bunch of teams with one loss, like 10 of them. Who plays will be decided mostly by people that don't even watch the games.

The 4 team playoff will help, but it won't be some cure all either.

King Glorious 11-17-2012 11:22 PM

The key will be who's #4 tomorrow. Notre Dame will be #1, followed by Alabama and Georgia I presume. If Oregon drops to #4, I think the championship will still end up Alabama/Oregon. I think USC beats Notre Dame, even with a backup quarterback. That will knock ND out. The Bama/Georgia loser is out. Oregon's best case scenario is for UCLA to beat Stanford next week. If UCLA beats Stanford and Oregon can close out their schedule with wins against top-15 Oregon St and UCLA, they are back in the title game.

declansharbor 11-18-2012 12:24 AM

I never thought I'd say this in my lifetime, but i'll be rooting for USC when they lock horns. A Lane Kiffin-led USC team at that. Combine that with the fact I still believe my Birds can turn it around and win the NFC East this year, I should probably be getting fitted for a straitjacket! :o

This is the first time I can remember ND having a powerful front four on Defense. Tuitt is only a sophomore and Kiper said he's probably the best D-lineman in the nation. Manti Teo is a monster and on offense they have legit SEC speed for the first time in a long time.

Undefeated going into USC with s chance at going to the SHIP!

HERE COME THE IRISH!

Looks about right! GO IRISH!!!!

is everyone happy now? the WORST team in the top 10 is #1 for at least a week.
depends on how the polls fall out and next week games. this COULD be another ALL SEC National Championship game. Fla and Lsu are back in play!
an all SEC N-C game will better than any SEC team Blowing out nd.

Florida has no chance.

IrishofNDMan 11-18-2012 12:16 PM

Notre Dame vs. Bama like I said all year long. Barkley is in a sling and without him they have no chance to upset Notre Dame.

What? What the hell does this say?

ddthetide 11-18-2012 08:39 PM

BCS= Bama #2, UGa #3, Fla #4 this week. so i wasn't far off.

IrishofNDMan 11-18-2012 09:58 PM

With the announcement Matt Barkley will not play against Notre dame and a freshman will get his first start its hard to imagine USC have any chance. Notre Dame is getting all the breaks this year, wonder how much a ticket would be for ND BAMA if it is to happen.

Just let Notre Dame take on Bama, so we can shut up the conceited, spoiled, whiney jerks there in South Bend.

I hope that you got this right. USC always has a chance. They have a lot of really good athletes that have the ability to make big plays on offense.

GO IRISH!!!!

Seemed like the right thread to sneak in a little WAR EAGLE today.

:)

Bigsmc 11-25-2012 04:26 AM

The ACC did not impress yesterday.

UF over FSU 37-26
USC over Clemson 27-17
UGA over GT 42-10
Vandy over WF 55-21

Good thing it is basketball season.

Yeah, very little.

Chizik fired yet?

horseofcourse 11-25-2012 10:29 AM

I'm very happy that unlike last year the National Champion will at least be SEC champion this year as well. I don't follow SEC football, who's better, Georgia or Alabama??...and which one does Johnny football play for?

Johnny football (i dont care for the nickname btw, fwiw) plays for texas a and m. The aggies, unlike mizzou, have made a very successful transition to the sec.


As for who is better.....good question. Georgia has gotten better as the season has gone on, whereas bama almost (and should have) lost to lsu and then got beat by the aggies. They seem to have tailed off a bit, and losing a key wr wont help.

IrishofNDMan 11-25-2012 11:14 AM

Still recovering from a long night of drinking and celebrating but had to stop by to give a GO IRISH!!!!!!!!! #1 team in the country and playing for all the marbles! Brian Kelly might be the best coach in America. He wins everywhere he goes from division 2 grand valley all the way to Notre Dame. Haters can say whatever they want but I'm content til January 7.

We should know something soon. I really never thought a season like this one was possible.

I've always wanted to use this icon.
