Indiana should’ve never been in, and this is likely the case for SMU, Boise, and Clemson, I hope I’m wrong. Strength of schedule has to be the most important factor moving forward, or we’re just going to get a repeat of this Indiana game every year.
At some point we have to decide if we want an elite RB or not. This year showed that not having one was the difference in making the playoffs vs just missing.
Love the matchup. Both teams are a bit of a mystery. Neither has beaten an elite team. Game is in one of the all time great venues. Classic blue blood vs an upstart. Great contrast in style. Competent beef on the Notre Dame side. More of an RPO attack by Indiana. If you’re a real college football fan this is pretty cool.
Indiana has the number 1 ranked rushing defense and they have given up 133 yards rushing to Notre Dame in the first quarter. Had Bama, Ole Miss, or South Carolina been in this game over Indiana then we would all be treated to a pretty good ball game. Right now this is a snoozer.
Tonight’s notre dame Indiana game has me thinking of some past games. What’s the best or favorite CF non sec game you’ve ever seen? Either live or in person….
The Boise State/OU game in 07 was fun.
Texas - Texas Tech Michael crabtree play was pretty cool.
At least their formula included strength of schedule.
The SEC needs to schedule the easiest non conference games so that they can to prove a point since the committee values quantity of wins over quality of wins.
Tickets are $1 on stubhub, so I’m not worried about getting in. I was just checking if anyone had any good seats they may not be using. Have a family party in Oxford this weekend and looking to take my son and daughter and possibly my dad. Thanks in advance.
