Outplayed and OUTCOACHED!

There’s a DraftKings Network now? I had no idea that even existed. As for Notre Dame, if they win out and Northern Illinois wins the MAC alongside making the playoff or even finishing the season ranked then that loss to them won’t hurt as much and there could still be a path for them to make it in even with 2 losses depending on who that second loss is to.

I'm 44 and was 8 the last time Notre Dame won a national championship. The top high school football players want to go to places that they've seen compete for national championships. Ohio State, Clemson, Georgia, Alabama etc. Notre Dame will always have a good football program and offers an amazing education, but I don't see them getting another national championship any time soon.

ND needs NIU to run the table.

[@wilson_kierce]

no, NIU needs ND to run the table. Playoffs baby!!

[@dongzilla1979]

And visa versa !

[@wesgeorge4112]

Lets be friends now, lets BOTH run the table! Then NIU can beat you again in the playoffs :P

If ND goes to the playoffs it would signal that the new scheme is illegitimate.

[@keithjordan7805]

Sorry Notre Dame fans, NIU is about the 5th or 6th best team in the MAC, Miami, Toledo are the favorites. You lost to a middle of the pack MAC team. This happens every year ND starts the season highly ranked, and by mid season they are at the bottom of the top 25. No team is more over rated year after year.

I am not sure any sports team at any level is more overrated each year than Notre Dame football.

What’s hilarious is he’s complimenting but then backhands. If NIU ends up 11-1 that loss isn’t too bad !
