ND gets Screwed
- Thread starter Golson5
- Start date
Arizona state or Boise would’ve been easier but UGA without Beck is a great matchup. Me matchup very well with UGA
Hopefully it leaves a chip on their shoulder. Freeman looked pissed at the viewing party
Penn St does absolute nothing all year and gets the easiest path possible.
I thought ND deserved the 6 seed, but the committee clearly isn't going to punish the losers of the conference championship games.
Enough of the good cop bad cop ESPN spin. Let Saban pick all the participants and be done with it.
Allowed blatant cheating and defended it.
Also, IU is the worst first round game ND could have gotten going in. It negates a home game in December and IU is going to be very motivated to show they’re the best team in Indiana.
Yes, they should still absolutely win. But it’s not the ideal first round game by any means.

While, I have the utmost respect for Saban, He’s not qualified to rank all of the teams.
I totally agree. It's a chance for IU to upgrade its pedigree, not only in the state but nationally. And the weather factor won't be a problem for them as much as it would as a true southern team.
IU is 11-1, have 0 wins vs any marquee teams (#10 in F+) and have the 57th ranked talent.
ND will be an easy favorite/should be an easy win especially with home field advantage.
Georgia is without their starting QB in round 2.
Then you just have to get through penn state or boise (which ND is a favorite vs both of them have better talent and have higher F+ ranking)
This path is about as good as it could have gone.

I'm fine with this.
There are worse ways than to start at home vs Indiana.
Fine, then Georgia...but you have to at some point play the best.
I'm excited and fairly confident.
No need to fear Indiana or Georgia...really anybody in this playoff.
ND is capable of winning the whole thing.

Backup QB or not, getting through Georgia is far from easy.
Here you make sense. Unlike the claim that past SEC teams could possibly compete in the NFL!
I also like this path. Bring it on. ND is well capable of running the playoff table. Georgia is the big test...but like you said, without their staring QB.
#10 in F+
So you should have a ton of respect for them and consider them one of the best teams in the country
No the path could have been much better with the 5 or 6 seed. Only spot worse is 8
Nothing worth winning is ever easy!
Indiana is good but beatable. And we play at home, unlike a typical bowl game. I think we advance. I think ND will be motivated to not lose to an Indiana team.
Guys come on. ND is for me a clear favorite. I respect any opponent and don't assume a win.
I expect MF won't. As I said, if ND plays its A game, it should be a strong enough win. MF has grown as a disciplinarian and game day prep coach.
I said the same about USC. ND didn't play its A game...but had enough quality to grind out a win. ND is a very good team by now.
No screw job here. ND lost to NIU and is not in a conference. I'll take this path...as ranking means nothing now that the playoffs are here.
Win each game. Period.
