Honestly would be pleasantly surprised, but very much surprised, if we were ranked over penn state after this game
disagree very much. With the OSU win being so close a 2 B1G team scenario both getting in over us has become very realistic. Id also further helps OUs resume and they can well be ranked over us is they win out. I think if every team winst out we could easily be seventh behind psu, osu, bama, uga, ou and clemson (assuming we beat miami and remove them from the ranks of the unbeaten). A GT win would certainly help tonight, but the close OSU win was the worst possible result.
Zero chance 2 B1G teams get in with no good OOC wins. No chance. The only conference possible getting 2 is the SEC, and we still have a great chance of getting in with that scenario.
yeah, ill believe it when i see it. I could easily see the committee fucking ND over to try and fuck us into a conference
i guess well know in 2 days. Need us to be ranked 6th (unless clemson loses, then we need to be 5th) I think. We need to be ranked over OU and PSU, those are the most important teams to watch
We can't piss our pants over the team letting down so we turn to pants pissing over hypotheticals from the playoff committee? Enjoy this win. Enjoy this team. Fuck the haters. Run the ball. Go Irish.
ow im fucking happy. I was crazy nervous over this game due to it being directly behind SC. We actually rushed over our season average against a top 6 rushing D
Also I still don't understand how the ADs of OSU and Clemson are allowed in the committee....seems like a direct conflict of interest Aren't there enough capable people to make up a committee of members with no affiliation to a power 5 team?
We’re one of the most dominant teams in the country right now. Maybe the most dominant. Just enjoy this shit. Getting into the playoff and being able to compete at that level would just be icing on the cake of a season in which we’ve overachieved beyond any of our wildest dreams.
I thought for sure we were losing after that fucking blocked punt. Holy shit do I love this football team
We just need more 1-loss teams. If 0 or 1 teams go undefeated, we're making the playoffs. Perfectly fine with PSU and TCU losing today. TCU losing is huge - effectively eliminates the Big 12 IMO; along with Pac 12 being out that means we'd need a two team conference to not get in at 11-1. Oh, and what a fucking win.
We got the ball back at our own 19 with 8:40 left already up 21 on a top 15 team. We kneeled it at the 4 yard line on first and goal 15 plays later. Against the #6 rush defense in the nation still playing their starters. Imagine hearing that 9 weeks ago.
I’m the first to say not to but we should talk playoffs. Insah Allah we beat Miami and Stanford Allah hu akbar and play anyone other than Bama. Then get pounded by Bama in the title. Wooooooo!
So it doesn't look like it's been released outside of the stadium yet, but they have an Adams Family Josh Adams Heisman hype video that was just glorious
Yeah I think your right. But at a certain point, people have to realize that he's been held under 100 yards rushing a number of games.
I think if Adams had a better game against uga (where he still was reasonably productive) he wouldve already been getting a bit more love
Adams is so good for Nd but I feel like the ol is doing a lot more. If I had a vote I would pick Nelson. In 2012 I would’ve picked Martin
For sure, but I'm pretty sure Adams is up there with the national leaders in yards after contact. His big runs are a lot of untouched stuff, but he's more than just an amazing ol (that obviously helps)
