The whole world is out to get LSU!

Marcus Freeman Leads, Brian Kelly Questioned

Marcus Freeman’s leadership has revitalized Notre Dame, proving the program’s championship potential. Meanwhile, Brian Kelly, who left the Fighting Irish for LSU in 2021, is facing scrutiny. Kelly famously justified his departure by claiming Notre Dame lacked the resources to win a national championship. Freeman’s success challenges that narrative, with many questioning if Kelly’s exit was premature or misguided.

LSU’s Struggles Under Kelly

Since joining LSU, Kelly has yet to make a College Football Playoff appearance, a stark contrast to Notre Dame’s resurgence. While Kelly led the Tigers to the SEC Championship Game in his debut season, the program has since regressed, missing the CFP in subsequent years. This season, LSU faltered with a three-game losing streak, highlighting inconsistencies in Kelly’s tenure.

All this is setting up is for ND to get beat by 4 TDs.

Notre Dame will get destroyed in the championship game and all will be quiet.

They also won’t have near the ball club next year.

So you are saying the media is full of idiots who can’t actually think rationally?

Anyone else tired of the constant Notre Dame propaganda pushing a narrative that implies both coaches stepped into similar situations and one has outperformed the other?

I am.

One has outperformed the other given the state of the program they inherited. BK has done far better. Damn near any current college coach at a power 5 school could have taken ND to exactly where they are today with that schedule.

For all the Notre Dame closet bitchy fans here, go right on ahead and take the over a touchdown spread that Vegas is giving you. They literally are begging you to take those points. Take out a loan to do it please.

It’s all stupid. Kelly left because ND had shitty involvement from their alumni and donors. They refused to upgrade facilities and get in the recruiting game because their arrogance told them “we’re Notre Dame and we don’t need that stuff.”

So Kelly leaves, it pisses off the money people, they organize and start building facilities, throwing money at the portal and what do you know? They had success.

So Kelly was right. That’s all the article had to say.

We’re undefeated in your head because you’re on our board 4 days before your championship game.

No Domer wants to talk about the fact that Notre Dame was #5 in 2021 just like they were this year, and the only difference is the 12 team playoff.

It took Freeman three seasons just to get back to where BK left them.

Please take out a loan you can’t afford and throw it all down on the -8.5 that Vegas is giving Notre Dame. They’re begging you to take those points. The polar vortex is hitting during the championship game. Make sure you have plenty of blankets and jackets. Living outside of a home in that shite is going to be a mother fricker.
