I don't think anybody is. For anybody that was, I'd ask them to show me one ND game from this season that they looked like one of the four best teams in the country. They beat Ball State by a touchdown and Vandy by 5 points fergodsakes.

You’re right, but you have to look at the TV ratings. They poll well from DC to Boston, in Chicago and Cincinnati, and in LA.

I started this to talk some football ...... why do you guys have to constantly start stuff ?? Yeah I know CW is fat, yeah I know he has never won a big game, but does anyone really know how it is all going to turn out. I am not saying he will be a great coach someday but many great coach's that had rough starts ended up doing just fine.

I think ND is going to have a fine season and I also think the talent is such that they could make a run in the next few years. Shoot me for being optomistic....

So which one of you shot him?

Man, I wish this guy was still around. :lol:

Just for fun, here's Notre Dame's results in major BCS/NY6 level bowls, arbitrarily cut off on a time frame to make it look worst for them:

January 1, 1996 Orange Bowl L #8 Florida State 26 31
January 1, 2001 Fiesta Bowl L #5 Oregon State 9 41
January 2, 2006 Fiesta Bowl L #4 Ohio State 20 34
January 3, 2007 Sugar Bowl L #4 LSU 14 41
January 7, 2013 BCS National Championship L #2 Alabama 14 42
January 1, 2016 Fiesta Bowl L #7 Ohio State 28 44
December 29, 2018 Cotton Bowl Classic (CFP Semifinal) L #2 Clemson 3 30

I knew about all of these, but damn. Seeing them all lined up is quite a bit of carnage.

Average score of 17.25 - 38.

I realize that the Bowl legacy of ND the last three decades is more than Brian Kelly, but that guy can't coach a big game. As long as they have that murderer at the helm, it's a foregone conclusion for the last game of their year.

They’ve actually won more bowls since 2000 and than I thought. Apparently five victories, which was about three more than I expected. Still, very shitty but I was disappointed to see they’d actually won 5. Fuck them like Fungo fucks Bucky.

Notre Dame getting blown out in the first round of the CFP is all TSUN's fault. If they had done their job and beaten these pretenders back in September, ND would never have made it to the CFP the first place. Thing is, I don't know whether to blame them for keeping OSU out of the CFP, or thank them for giving me the chance to see ND embarrassed yet again on national television.
