Should I mention special teams?

I could see Notre Dame beating Texas. No one is beating Ohio State

Maybe, but Penn State won’t be a pushover for them.

You think they best OHS? You think they can beat Oregon? You think they can beat ole miss? They beat Georgia with a back up qb barely! Do you think they can beat Texas? Do you think they beat Miami?

IDK.
I think Ohio State is the best team right now.

12 team playoff and we didn't make it in just aggravated. So many missed opportunities.

No one wants to talk about that though ! ND is got some luck on there side this year wait till next year they won’t be as good or lucky! But if they have stability within coaches they might be decent every good team loses players ! Every good team loses coaches!

Beat both Texas A&M and USC so we’ll just stop there.

LOL, so ND is great for beating 2 average teams that LSU didn’t. Wow.

In looking back, it seems that under the current rules, BK's 2009 Cincinatti team would have had a first round Bye in the playoffs as the #3 ranked BCS team and a conference winner (Big East).

Also the 2008 Cincinatti team was ranked 12th in the final BCS poll (before the bowl game)

He also would have made the field in 2015 & 2021.

So to recap, BK either made the playoffs under the rules at the time or would have made the playoffs 7 times in the 14 years between 2008 and 2021.

Cincinatti
2008 (would have been in under the current format)
2009 (would have gotten a bye)

Notre Dame
2012 (in the BCS title game)
2015 (would have been in under the current format)
2018 (in the 4 team CFP)
2020 (in the 4 team CFP)
2021 (would have been in under the current format)

Great work, but this is too much data for the ND lovers to comprehend.

You should have started with lost to NIU at home if you wanted to stop there.

I’m curious to how upperclassmen laden teams are in CFB. Can’t really find a good site with stats like that and I’m too lazy to do it myself

We have some really stupid people here. Comparing 2020 Bama and GA to 2024 Bama and GA in transfer/NIL era shows how uninformed you are. And if it’s ND playing without Leonard? Please. Yes ND had always had the benefit of not playing in a conference and having easy schedule. But Kelly took a losing program and rebuilt it only a championship program when they only took 4 teams not 12. KDS is real.

Did he face a backup qb making their first ever start, in those games?
