Yes.
I would have chosen South Carolina, Alabama, or Mississippi over SMU from the ACC.
Michigan vs Alabama
- Thread starter NDinNJ
- Start date

And south Carolina losing to illinois. Sec most overrated conference based on performance. You use to pump pac-12, and we’re wrong there, now sec and wrong there too. Do you have any clue about football
Big is good esp with addition of oregon and usc. Much tougher conf than sec
You can’t compare this Alabama team to prior Alabama teams
This Alabama team was far from elite
They’ve gone down for the reasons discussed. But Michigan consistently has beaten them this last year. Laying to rest decisively that Alabama is not elite now.
Kudos to these BIG teams.
Still avoiding answering the question about Colorado’s record in the SEC. Will your press secretary answer?
Finebaum was quiet on his SEC TV program today, after the game. The missing element at 'Bama is the coach. IU beat Michigan and Michigan beat 'Bama. So, explain why 'Bame belonged in the CFP and IU didn't?
pathetic; only you are talking about the ACC
SEC homers are so pathetic now
OSU by 30 over Tenn
Navy over Okie
And 2 of my favorites-
Mich over Bama
Illinois over SCJr
Sure glad you don’t have a vote.
Come on, you know what happened. USC was hammered as a sacrificial pawn for allowing the SEC to do the same with impunity. USC and PAC 10 leadership were derelict of duty allowing it to happen...not surprising the league itself crashed.
The gloves are off. Now all colleges can invest all their resources openly. USC will do it...and as we once briefly discussed, I doubt Riley will be the man to lead this.
USC is a sleeping giant.
I'm not a fan, but don't mind them realizing their potential, as it helps Notre Dame in a great rivalry. I'm just noting their advantages in a changing college landscape. The Fighting Irish and Trojans benefit from NIL and transfers vs an SEC that used to hoard with under the table benefits.
USC beat LSU and TAMU. Only ND beat USC by > 1 TD. Times are changing...I think for the better.
I say: to hell with the SEC.

No matter who would have been inserted 9-12, the 1st round results would have been the same. So the discussion of who should have been in at 9-12 is really irrelevant.
They point to the blow outs in the 1st round, yet when it was a 4 team playoff there were blowouts in those games.
sjb would have preferred to have Alabama, Ole Miss, and South Carolina. Yet Tennessee who has a far better team than those 3 was humiliated in the 1st round. It was literally the most lopsided game of the 1st round.
I would like whoever Mike Denbrock thinks gets us a Natty. He coached win of the best, he know what he needs, if he says Portal we should listen.
Even Colorado beat Baylor….
Yeah, we'll find out what Milroe's going to do, go pro, go portal, go back to Bama. And if he's in the portal, wow, that would be tempting. ND could easily afford him, and I think he would be interested at least in the stature of ND as far as being a total legit playoff contender. And a good program to go to in all football respects, even if he doesn't much want to come to South Bend in particular. A good business decision. But I don't think he'd pick ND even if we did make an offer, because he'll have other good options, and he'll just go somewhere else, if he does end up going to the portal.
I think this season's playoff and bowl results bolster the argument against expanding to 16 teams. Although, going to 16 teams has MONEY & profit on its side. We will have to wait and see if money wins this argument too.
I think the analogy doesn't hold. Too binary, likening this to a disease vs health.
NIL and transfers at least offer openness. That is a 1st step in trying to get it right. Not saying they will, but you never know...hence my continued faith and allegiance to the Fighting Irish.
Again, this is much better than under the table corruption...where the SEC can lord it over, pretending they were legit better. Let it be a competition of fair bidding...not exclusive under the table bidding.
the way some here drool over losing QB s is amazing. The only reason ALabama won as many as they did was overall talent; Milroe was not all that. In the big games he came up small. But some morons think just because he went to Alabama we should get him.
Nuts I would take Ewers before Milroe and I don't want either one
Alright, thank you, sir. Thank you for the input. And I think you're going to pleased, I don't think we're taking a portal QB. All signs point in that direction! Nevertheless just throwing it out there. A team like ND could do worse than to bring in a QB of Jalen Milroe's ability. It's what good managers do to win ballgames....
