Curt Cignetti Q&A CFP Notre Dame preparation

[@zztraderzz]

ND fan here. Cignetti has a refreshing candor with the media. It’s been fun following your season. Can’t wait to see what happens.

[@matthewlundy6736]

May the best Indiana team win 🤝

[@josephbrewer5523]

Thanks Coach Cignetti! What a fresh breath of air he's been.

[@Dabhr2]

Like the way you address the media Coach. I am sure you will have the team prepared! Let's go win this thing! Respect!

This game should've been on Notre Dame's regular season schedule, as opposed to Northern Illinois.

ND vs Indiana….should be an annual game! Purdue vs ND is getting stale👍

Indiana is usually just as bad

Thanks Coach!

IU is #2 total defense behind Ohio State. We are #2 scoring offense behind Miami. This team can go the distance.

[@matthewlundy6736]

We just need the O-line to be more cohesive than vs OSU

[@ndn4203]

I mean it’s easy to say when you play one ranked team and don’t even win that…😑😑🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️just being honest

[@harlowk]

@@ndn4203IU D held Ohio State to their lowest offense totals this year. 7-7 for two quarters and OSU won by 3 TDs all given to them by special teams.

[@robineller9125]

Good luck IU

[@michaeld6147]

I was really hoping to have 2 teams to root for, but the committee didn't drop Texas and PSU behind ND like they should have. If ND had the 5 seed, then the only way they would meet would be for the championship.

[@elwalker9034]

This man has DIGESTED that Ohio State loss. IU will be different as a result. Intelligent hard worker.

[@IndianaSportsBeatRadio]

It eats at him.

[@ma2728aldrtfl]

What’s up with the camera struggling to focus?

[@danmcmillan451]

I picked the Hoosiers, Notre Dame hasn't had a really good team since the late 80s.

This is a coach IU can beat ND

[@samm3656]

ND gonna whip that ass... Indiana will ALWAYS be Indiana.... couple fluke years here and there....but they will ALWAYS be Indiana

[@ndn4203]

Honestly, I could see IU losing to Texas A&M, Louisville, or usc. Lets not act like IU was playing the tougher teams in the big ten

[@kingtyomama6564]

I like IU to beat ND. They played in the Big Ten and ND played nobody. I like IU chances as battle tested and better coached!

[@ragnavald_7985]

Lol Lay off your KoolAid. They're a good team that had a nice season, but you're gonna play more elite talent on the 20th than you've seen combined. You're the ones who played a cupcake schedule.

[@kingtyomama6564]

@@ragnavald_7985 Let's say the two teams have played a combined 26 games this season. Iu has played 2 tough opponents. Michigan late season and OSU. ND has played 0 tough opponents. So really, they both kinda have a lot to prove

[@ragnavald_7985]

@kingtyomama6564 Irish beat A&M at Kyle Field. Smash Georgia Tech who had Georgia beat late and lost by 2. Smashed Army on the east coast, then traveled to SC and smacked them. Don't tell me IU played a harder schedule than Notre Dame. Michigan 🤣 ...c'mon. The only team that beats ND is ND.

[@kingtyomama6564]

@@ragnavald_7985 ND has no (ZERO) top 20 wins. A&M is mud, they lost 44-20 to a South Carolina. USC is trash, not the Trojans of Anthony Davis yore, more like used Trojans at a HS dance. Army? Come on guy, those players are defending our country but not D-1 football recruits. Northern ILL is dog dew in the MAC 5th place. they played NOOOOOOOOOBody. Also IU has no top 20 final season poll wins, but beating Michigan was a tough challenge.

[@ragnavald_7985]

@kingtyomama6564 I understand beating Michigan at all is a big deal for you bud, but it's a shit win. It's not even close to opening your season at Kyle Field and winning by 2 possession scores. Convenient that you draw the line at 20, but ok, you do that. I'm not impressed by the Irish schedule compared to past seasons, but if you believe your metric rankings against the schedule you played gives you right to scoff at Notre Dame, you're foolish.

[@rossrreyes]

If ND plays clean and Indiana plays clean; ND wins by 17. To win Indiana needs ND to help them by turning the ball over a few times.

[@chuckcribbs3398]

Indiana’s defense is much better than ND, and we are the #2 scoring offense in the nation. We have played a very similar schedule as ND. IU should win. We are ranked lower than we should be.

[@BlakeHudson-p1e]

IU doesn’t have a better defense than ND😂🤣

[@jimwyatt8386]

Indiana is no Northern Illinois.
