Game day thread. Sun bowl

They aren't though. Not on any replay they showed where we had an incomplete.
He missed 1 pass to Raridon
You're wrong
Our QB situation is so much better going from 24 and forward than is been in a long long time
You’re so weak 🤣 Go watch the game
Leonard, Minchey, Carr, we are in great hands for sure
I guess winning this game would be nice. But does winning the Frosted Flakes bowl really give a program momentum?
You are the exact poster that have zero knowledge of football. you expect every play to be successful, and when it's not, you cry about replacing players. Go study the sport before you make comments like this. what a joke.
Leonard will start next season, but Angeli is 7-9, 121 yards, 1 TD, 0 INT and you are b1tching. What a tool.
That was an utterly dominant first half despite only a 14 point lead. They could not sustain drives and we were getting enormous push on the offensive line. I expect a complete blowout in the second half.
I was honestly very surprised that the opening line of us at -7.5 dropped to 6.5 and then 6 in some places, which was really confusing because I’m not sure why money was coming in on Oregon State—we may have missing players, but they have more missing players including the very best players that made an impact and why they had such a good season this year.

It’s been around forever as the Sun Bowl. Better than LSU playing unranked Wisconsin in the ReliaQuest Bowl.
When did you graduate? in 24? You are a dinosaur. Didn't realize being a graduate of ND translates to football knowledge. 😂 Again, go study the game.
Agreed. F+ thinks ND is #10 to OSUs #16 with full regular season rosters. Then you take out all of OSUs best players (a roster nowhere near as deep as NDs) and I think a bet for ND to beat the spread would have been a good one coming into this game. Easy to say with hindsight but I digress
Agree and the SEC refs are 100x better than ACC. Maybe they should do our home games.
No one cares about F+. It's a garbage system. Any system that ranks 2 loss Oregon and Penn Stare teams ahead of Alabama, Texas, and FSU is a joke.
Imagine if the CFP used F+ to place the top 4, you would have
Michigan vs Ohio State
Oregon vs Georgia
Only 1 conference champion in that group.

Hitting 10 wins with Denbrock hire would qualify as momentum in my book
“Momentum” here is a subjective term, so not sure how you want to quantify this. One of the steppingstones to becoming a contending power is that you handily defeat teams that have less talent than you do, and that you do so with regularity. So, this beating that we are putting on Oregon State currently does that, even though it is marred by the fact that Oregon State is missing its best players and its coach.
But to me, this game is emblematic of what we did throughout the season, i.e., control games from start to finish for the most part. You need to be doing that before you can get to the next stage which is that you have a legitimate chance to beat every team on every field, e.g., UGA, Alabama, Ohio State, Clemson in the past, Florida State, in the past, Miami in the past, Notre Dame, under Lou Holtz, etc.
Definitely good enough. But can be hold off Minchey and Carr talents. I'm not sure
But if Riley went down in 24 I wouldn't panic if Angeli had to play
Hes a solid player
It’s always interesting to me how people on this board respect Las Vegas and its betting spreads, but so ignorantly dismiss the only publicly available free system that takes into account account every snap played by every team while disregarding garbage time and adjusting for opponent strength and luck. Vegas and other betting sites are using models very similar to F+ to set those opening lines. I know this as someone who bets on sports regularly and notices the similarities..
I do not know what field most of you are in, but granular analytics data informed just about every decision by just about every multinational company, and by just about every professional sporting team.
If you take a look at the opening spreads for games played on neutral fields, and you look at the F+ rankings, the opening line spreads closely match how teams are ranked in the F+ system as long as there are no major injuries or any other drastic changes. A lot of people were probably surprised that Texas was favored over Washington, but granular data models (like F+) have Texas as a better team over the course of every snap played.
And they lost to Washington at the very end by 2pts. Wash is in the CFP. The last two games were against top 10 teams Oregon and Wash. Can’t always cherry pic a single game.
One sack was bad, the other he had no chance. He's playing well and yet people on this board still complain. Just laughable these know nothing keyboard jockeys; laughable
He doesn't have the strongest arm, but he makes good decisions and is pretty accurate. However, Minchey and Carr both have more talent.
Because we look at some of their rankings and just laugh and laugh and laugh.
It's the worst ranking system I've personally seen
For what it is worth. This defense has s basically what ND will have next year minus a player or two unless a true freshman bows up or ND gets somebody in the transfer portal. Sneed looks good and the Duke transfer on the DL should replace Baptist. I do not know about the rest of them
You do realize Vegas doesn't rank teams. Also please explain to me how Oregon is ranked #2 after they had 2 cracks at Washington and lost both.Also PSU ranked 5th with losses to both OSU and Michigan.
Explain to me how 2 loss Oregon is ranked ahead of Georgia, Alabama, FSU. and Washington whom they lost to TWICE?
Are you saying the top 4 in the CFP should have been Michigan, Oregon, Georgia, OSU?

Yeah, Vegas doesn’t have a clue, I guess that’s why the build Billion dollar hotel-casinos and send jets and limos to bring gamblers to Vegas and then give those gamblers free suites, food and drink.
You don’t have a clue as to how Vegas sets the opening line, over/under, etc., etc..
