If Tenn played in the SEC…

Will Herbie call out Tenn for being outclassed and not belonging in playoffs like he did for IU?
One thing I heard all week was the pundits saying Tennessee has a huge advantage on the offensive and defensive lines. Looks completely opposite to me. Also, this QB for Tennessee can't throw to save his life. Only the 2nd time I've seen him play. He scrambles good though. But his passing skills suck.Tenn. benefitted from several teams losing after they did. They were dead in the water after their last loss. But hey; they are from the mighty SEC.
It’s ESPN’s Producer’s narrative. I watch with the sound off.Herbstreit never misses the opportunity to downgrade ND
He misses open receivers, most of his passes are high percentage throws under 7-8 yards which is fine, but Im concerned the offense is going to get into a position where they are in 2nd and long or 3rd and long and/or need to score quickly, and I'm not confident Leonard can come through.Has he really been limited in passing since Miami OH? Stats aren’t everything but his numbers are pretty good. He hasn’t turned the ball over much at all this year and is deadly on the ground.
Even if he chokes against UGA, that can happen to any QB (see Caleb Williams against ND 2023).
I’ve said this a bunch I feel, but ND’s passing limitations are as much on the OL as they are on Leonard this year. Leonard makes up for it with his escapability IMO.
Michigan says hello to Herbie and his dog!According to Herbie, Yenn has 40k fans there. Had they played better in 1Q, the crowd would been neutered
Another game that blows up the SEC love fest
According to Herbie, Yenn has 40k fans there. Had they played better in 1Q, the crowd would been neuteredStill a ways to go. Never know. So I withhold judgement.
That said, the is literally a perfect storm for Tennessee. It's cold. Travel. Hostile crowd.
And Ohio State is pretty good. This game might be over were it not for that end zone interception. Chip Kelly makes some silly calls too, going with a long pass when they were fine running. Denbrock ain't alone in this.
Again still a half to play, but I think Ohio State might be the most talented team.
That’s a valid point !We have a good defense and surrendered nearly 600 against USC.
Has he really been limited in passing since Miami OH? Stats aren’t everything but his numbers are pretty good. He hasn’t turned the ball over much at all this year and is deadly on the ground.He's going to be tested in this upcoming game against Georgia. The offense has not seen a defense as good Georgia's all season. I'm hoping he does well, but we are going to see if his limited passing abilities limit ND's offense.
I'd say IU was 5th best behind SC, A&M, GT (who didn't have their starting QB against ND), and Louisville.Answer the question, who played ND better, IU or SC???
We all know the answer but I want you to admit it. I said SC would play ND better than IU.
You said and I quote
Indiana
Texas am
Louisville
GT
USC
My original argument was Indiana would be the 5th or 6th hardest team ND played. You said closer to 1.
Well???
Tough to tell, a serviceable QB with this schedule and D would have the same record, perhaps undefeated. RL’s tenure will be judged by this last run and rightfully so
Either 8 or 16, no byes, no automatic bids to conference champs, neutral sites and let Vegas rank the teams12 is clearly too many..6 teams end the debate
Herbstreit never misses the opportunity to downgrade NDWatched the replay of gameday from today.
Herbstreit down grading ND win is predictable ESPN propaganda. The SOS narrative. Etc.
Ryan day looks like the GI Joe doll I had as a kid.Ryan Day did a nice job with his black Just for men Beard Dye prepping for this game.

He isn't a complete QB but his ability to run is a nightmare for defenses.
To call him serviceable is a joke. He is a winner.
He's going to be tested in this upcoming game against Georgia. The offense has not seen a defense as good Georgia's all season. I'm hoping he does well, but we are going to see if his limited passing abilities limit ND's offense.It feels like some won’t be satisfied with him until he ends up in the NFL hall of fame.
