I've watched multiple games of Notre Dame 

 

Saw portions of the northwestern game and watched most of the USC game

 

Clemson wins easily and if USC could ever finish a game the way they start they would have beaten Notre Dame by double digits that game

Clemson has started slow in just about every game they've played this season.  People can't have it both ways when it comes to ND.

Let's not sit up here and pretend College scheduling as a whole isn't borderline bad... 

 

I know we give ND hell... 

But they're the only team that consistently schedules mostly if not all  Power 5 conferences on their schedule... 

There's never any weak conference teams on their schedule. 

 you May see someone like Cincinnati or Temple  on their schedule at worst... 

Meanwhile we got Florida and FSU out here scheduling Idaho and Northern Colorado... 

Georgia playing Nicholls St and ULM. 

Alabama out here playing Citadel.... 

 

Michigan St out her playing Central Michigan...

You get my point?

Notre Dame had just played a game in NYC and then flew literally across country.  You bet they were sleep walking.  Jet lag is a real thing unless you are in Las Vegas.

And since when did force turnovers not count?  

And Notre Dame plays these games yearly

 

You would think by now they would have adjusted to the travel

Idk i would think vandy is a very weak game

 

Which was way tighter than a top 4 team in the entire country should have had

ND usually has one weak link a year. Not bad.

The thing this year that really impacted their sched is that the Pac-12 is such a steamy pile of hamster squeeze and some name programs they lined up ended up shitting the bed.

What league can match this?

2019

LSU vs Texas 

Georgia vs Notre Dame

Texas A&M vs Clemson

Auburn vs Oregon

Ole Miss vs California

Missouri vs West Virginia

Vandy vs Purdue

Florida vs Miami

 

 

 

 

 

LSU, Auburn and Tennessee have never been afraid to go out and play someone.  Florida and Miami is boring.  I know the Florida folks love it but leave the region.

Tennessee has Oklahoma in 2020......

LSU has Texas in 2019/2020 (home/home)

LSU will play Clemson in 2025/2026 (home/home)

LSU will play Oklahoma in 2027/2028 (home/home)

Yep, there is a reason Saban voted Alabama no.2 and OU 4.  He knows they will have a fight on their hands dealing with that OU offense.  In the mean time, ND defensive line is about to wreck havoc.  Just need the offensive line to play even.  Brute power is not the way to attack the ND offensive line.

https://247sports.com/Article/Alabama-Nick-Saban-Georgia-College-Football-Playoff-ranking-Coaches-Poll--125785620/

Saban said; "This team (Georgia) deserves to be in the playoff."

Saban said; "I sure as hell don't want to play them (Georgia) again."

Saban then votes Georgia #5.

The look on Saban's face when Georgia went up by two touchdowns was a "tell." He's definitely glad Ga. is out.  I don't think he's nearly as worried about Alabama's chances now.

This is why LSU is one of the teams in the SEC I can get behind.  They will go out and put it on the line.  I will only root for Tennessee if they are playing Michigan.  My best friend is a UT fan and I like having him quiet lately.

Problem is with LSU is yes they go out and play but they lose like they did to Wisconsin and than their season is over. Yes this year they beat up Miami. But Miami qb couldnt hit broad side of a barn. LSU also beat syracuse which you have to expect.
