It wasn't the officiating folks, it was really bad game management

It's a valid point. Yes. Keep in mind GT also outgained, had more 1st D, and more clock than the Cards when they played us. But I agree it's a valid metric yes.

I lean to crediting JB's system for creating plays/strategy for some or many of those gains vs ND. Long story short, I like our staff better than the ND staff.

I'm not saying our players suck. I'm not saying ND's are great. It's just one variable disadvantage that they are recruiting around the T10 and UofL is not.

Since you bring up GT we got fuked in that game too by the zebras. I can’t recall how many big plays were called back on Louisville. I watched the replay and most were ok calls but the timeout and the hold out in the flat were BS.

We have a contract with ESPN through 2036 as long as they renew in 2028.

They’d pay, but you’re acting like we have leverage. And just say we boycott and break off from the Big 2 conferences, what value would we have then? What if they “boycott” us? Then we’d lose a lot of prestige because the viewing audience would consider our games meaningless.

It sucks, but we’re under their control and at their mercy.

First it’s not US. It would be all teams other than those 2 conferences so there is no way ESPN can boycott anybody for the reason I stated. Good luck filling your television slots with games from just 2 conferences. I’m not a lawyer so I assume you are right we are locked in so it was just wishful thinking to put it to the bastards.
You do realize if they take 8 playoff teams from those 2 conferences that it only leaves 3 spots for the ACC and Big 12 combined because of the 12 seed being an undeserving mid major. Again the ACc and Big 12 fuked again.

Besides Ohio State what other 3 teams in the over rated Big10 are worthy to be in the college playoffs. There is absolutely nothing in the world of sports that's as over rated as Big10 football.
I know the last couple years that ACC football has been down. But you could make a case that over the last 10/15 years that the ACC has been better in football than the Big10.

You think so? I just have a hard time believing all these television outlets are going to let the ACC, Big 12 and all the rest of the cfb conference go unwatched. I’d like to see all those tv outlets you mentioned fill their slots with 2 conferences 😂

ND postmortem

CardX
Fixing the small things and better decision making (hey, you, Brohm) need to be on the agenda ASAP. The grind is about to get grindier. Yes, I know that's not a word. Anyway, the combined record of all future opponents: 28-8, starting with 4-1 SMU. The Cards are currently -7. It'll be interesting to see how the team responds. Losing to ND wasn't exactly a heart breaker, but it was a game they probably should have won if not for questionable decision making and mistakes.

NBC has Notre Dame and Big Ten
Fox has the Big Ten and Big 12
CBS has the Big Ten

Those 3 also have financial issues and aren’t looking for other places. If we boycott ESPN, no one else is going to pay us big money and it would all fall apart.

Boycotting them does nothing. We cashed their checks for years, we’re stuck with them until 2036 or the ACC falls apart.
