In my time we never practiced with piped in noise preparing to play at ND. Now going to OSU or Camp Randall was a different story. That said how many students will be on any campus for a home playoff game in the middle of a semester break and only a few days before Christmas ?

OSU is not very loud either. Similar to ND.

Who at 7-8-9-10 goes ahead of them? Indiana? BYU? Tennessee? Notre Dame?

Who?

I would only consider Tennessee.

All of them have better resumes even with a horrible loss to NIU. PSU hasn't beaten ANYONE of substance. Who they loss to is their best positive.

This season I watched Marcus Freeman lose to MAC crappy Northern Illinois in South Bend.

All head coaches have their problems.

Dead horse alert.

I don’t think 10 is a bad spot for the first release and it keeps and motivated. It will not stay this way. If ND wins out there is a path to a home game against IU. That would be fun. In-state rival first round.

Does anyone after this still think ND has a path at 10-2? What’s the path your seeing I am not?

I just don't think Navy will be ranked at the end

I think the other 3 will

I only go by when you play them. Once you beat a team it usually changes them. If you go by only year end it rewards schedules like IU, PSU. But Agee, Army probably out of we beat them.

And with Wash, Minnesota, Purdue and Maryland left on their schedule.

PSU a lock with a home game.

Super competitive ? You obviously didn't see the game. A typical Franklin team performance in a big game. Garbage.

Let them get in. We'll match-up Rd 1 and pound them.

This would be a great matchup for ND in South Bend

If I want to rank teams, I'm choosing Saban and Meyer and former coaches.

If I wantto make spreads, I'll take Vegas

You’re beyond stupid

Saban and Maher don’t watch every game and they don’t have a clue when it comes to handicaping.

Did you forget, you said that you need people who watch every game and neither one of them watch every game

You’re a fraud

They know the game much more than people in Vegas.

With Vegas you have computers ranking teams and you'll get a 4 loss Ole Miss team in because their metrics look good

I trust the people who have played and coached the games and know ball

They only know how to coach, they don’t have a clue when it comes to handicapping and ranking teamd

You keep trying to change the narrative from handicapping and ranking the teams to coaching !

You’re disingenuous and you’re a fraud

Golson5 said:
Who are the people that are watching their games then? And can you name them?

Then ask yourself, do those people know more about football than people like Saban Meyer etc

Yes, they know far more than Saban and Meyer when it comes to handicapping the teams

You tried to change the narrative from handicaping to coaching

You’re disingenuous and you’re a fraud

I don't see it ever getting that loud, like Texas A&M loud or South Carolina loud, at Notre Dame Stadium. Those other stadiums are taller, allowing the noise to bounce around, plus they appear to have all sorts of speakers to really crank up the volume on the piped in music.

Losing in a super competitive manner against Ohio St. IMO outweighs beating SMU or Kansas St.

Why should Penn St. be penalized for losing to Ohio St.?

You’ll disagree. So be it.

Super competitive ? You obviously didn't see the game. A typical Franklin team performance in a big game. Garbage.

This is simply Deion hate and Dabo loving.

Actually it’s simply your bias. The same bias that won’t call out Lincoln, or acknowledge Kelly’s 10 losses at LSU, or that Chip was .333 after his stint at Oregon, or that Norvell has only one good season..

Don't get Penn State at all 1 win over Illinois? There schedule is very weak maybe Minnesota upsets them but I can see them staying in the top 10 unless they steam roll everybody to me Indiana at one loss is better then a one loss Penn State.

Illinois now with 3 losses as well

See u there

I think the atmosphere would be incredible. Loud and a ton of fun. It would be a great night.

This has turned out to be a great night too!

Golson5 · Nov 6, 2024

Night games it gets loud. I'm hoping if we play there in December it will be a wild atmosphere

Juniper_Run · Nov 6, 2024

The first committee rankings have me optimistic that we will host a playoff game if we win out. Something else I'm cautiously optimistic about is the atmosphere at Notre Dame Stadium for that game. We are conspicuously low on the list of difficult places to play. Gameday in South Bend is delightful for all the old alumni bringing their grandkids and reminiscing about the old days, but it really lacks in rabid fans ready to create a hostile environment for the away team.

A playoff game might be different. No one among the 70+ crowd of ND fans that I know plans to brave the cold in South Bend in December. l'm planning to go, though. And while I'm kind of old, I'm definitely planning to scream at the top of my lungs every defensive snap. Will this be the first time in decades that Notre Dame Stadium provides a substantial home field advantage for the Irish? Are many of you on this board hoping to grab tickets if we secure a home game?

Golson5 · Nov 6, 2024

We beat Ped in south bend. If it's a white out in psu, it's a very close game in my opinion

They are healthier than we are and have a similar F+ rating. It would be a 50-50 game (at best) for sure.
