Big East has changed a bit since those days. Big East is a collection of Catholic schools now.

Anti-trust laws are on the books for a reason. Want lower prices? Create more competition.
Break up Tyson and the rest of the Big 4 packers (JBS, Cargill, National). They control and are strangling the market to their benefit.

I'm here to see which new and interesting way the NFL will get the Chiefs to win this game now.
You have got to be kidding me?

Are they ever going to throw a flag on these QB slides for CW? Third time today I've seen a late hit.

I'm wondering behind the scenes how strained NDs relationship is wi th the ACC at this point.

Way too close to a pick there
Incomplete. Actually the right call.
Committee just made the statement that CCG don't matter. If you lose you're still in the CFP.
Devalued. Why watch those "exhibitions".

Yep. And why should ND fill ESPN's pockets after what transpired?

South Dakota is still in it. Beat Mercer 47-0 today.
In. Watching it right now with my 9 year old.

Blue turf. I'm out. Won't watch a game on that blue eyesore.
Big difference here is that ISU doesn't have the money to counteroffer. Money is tight in Ames.
re: Why do people care if ND is in a conference?
Posted by SoDakHawk on 12/4/25 at 11:16 pm to deltadummy
When you schedule years out in advance, how do you really know what your SOS will be 7-10 years later? All you can do is schedule historically strong programs.
ND has a few of those they play. USC should be good. Michigan State is historically a solid program. Navy, you give ND crap for scheduling Navy? You need to take a history of CFB class and learn why ND plays Navy every year.
Every conference has power teams and has duds. Try to predict that years out. Who would think Indiana would be this good 5 years ago? Who would think Florida or Florida State would be this bad 5 years ago?
Don't tell me, "they don't play anybody" when that is really a moving target from year to year.

Their miscalculation was firing a coach that had taken his team to the National Semifinals the year prior and who was consistently successful there. What coach wants to walk into a situation where three rough weeks will get you canned?
They actually thought Deboer, Freeman, etc. would leave their marquee jobs for PSU? They thought way too highly of themselves
It is Nebraska all over again.

I tire of this entire argument. If there is an advantage to being Independent there is nothing stopping Alabama, Texas, OSU, etc. from leaving their conference and going Independent.
Truth is ND year in/year out probably plays a more demanding schedule when you factor in the national travel schedule and taking on a variety of different types of teams.
We're seeing that in the Big Ten right now, how difficult it is for the West teams to play in the East/Midwest and the East/Midwest teams to travel to the West Coast.
National travel matters and it takes a toll. ND has been doing it for decades.
The irony is that ND is getting blasted for playing a weak schedule when the contributing factor to that weak schedule is because of their deal with the ACC. If they just joined the ACC the schedule would be even weaker.

re: Wedge bounce
Posted by SoDakHawk on 12/4/25 at 10:40 am to Tedorgeron
I also play Cleveland Zipcores in:
54* Mid 10
58* High 12
The opposite of what OP has, which seems a common theme here.
54* with the mid bounce is an all around green side club, with the 58* being a sand or thick rough club.
Agree with everything being said here about getting the ball onto the ground to run it towards the hole.
There are so many bounce/grind options out there that I finally decided to use the KISS method, Keep It Simple Stupid, and go with that 54 Mid/58 High combination.

Seeing some of the names they were targeting, did they seriously think they could pull Freeman from Notre Dame or Deboer from Bama? That's a big part of their problem, they were aiming too high.
They needed to be more realistic. A coach like Matt Campbell at Iowa State is more attainable.
