Clearly he can’t handle the NIL environment!

Is that you Tom Allen?

When they show replays of a ND offensive play it’s almost funny how much the refs allow the ND blockers to hold/grab jerseys.  They have shown plays in which at least three guys were doing it at the same time.

I’ll almost always root against the SEC, but I make an exception when it’s Notre Dame. Should take them out of the playoff picture. 

[Brass Cannon 25,819]

So now Notre dame will fall to 18 or so, play nobody the rest of the season and rattle off 10 straight wins and get a high seed because they keep winning while everybody else loses. 
 

what a crock

By the way... I'm really glad UCLA is here in the Big Ten.  I'm glad they replaced us as the doormat.

Doormat of the Big Ten still belongs to Purdump until they officially lose the title

Yep gotta win a conference game to wash the stink from last year off. 
 

And while not a conference game Notre Dame is going to make them suffer next week

Yep. And they're catching a pissed off Notre Dame (0-2) team next week that's looking to get healthy.

That’s a tough one. As much as I love little brother continuing to embarrass themselves every year watching Domers get that look, you know the one, knocked off their smug faces certainly has it’s charms. Annoying that someone gets to win.

Purdue is -26.5 at ND right now.  And they still aren't very good.  They're gonna get a paddlin'.

I really dislike both teams, but a win would mean more to PU and signal they're improving -- I hope they lose by 40.

Well, no one has to win, but anything less than a curb stomping is a “win” for the Purdouche tractor jockeys.

Like when they lost to NIU last year? I know they're 0-2 now but I think they still will probably make the playoff simply because the rest of their games are very winnable. 10-2 will probably get them in since they're Notre Dame.

We shall see.  I would say the Irish are on the outside looking in currently.

Currently at 0-2? Of course. I'm not talking about if the playoff was selected right now but when it's selected at the end of the season.

They were also top 10 before this game where they lost by 1 point to a top 20 team. They'll drop a bit in the rankings but not too far. Win the next 10 games (very doable, their schedule is a joke) and they'll easily be in the top 12 at the end of the season. If they drop another one, they're out but I think they end up getting in. I'd love nothing more than to be wrong, though.

You have more faith in them than I do.

Not really. I just think their schedule for the rest of the season is a joke.
