Whether or not they deserve to be in the playoffs is debatable, but I still think they have a route. 1. Georgia needs to beat Alabama, which is likely. Personally I don’t think a 2 loss team should get in anyway, but the bigger beat down Georgia gives Alabama, the better for ND. Then, just one of these three things need to happen. Cincy loses to Houston Michigan loses to Iowa Oklahoma State loses to Baylor If that happens, ND will slide in.
This turned out to be Brain Kelly's last game as Notre Dame football head coach as he left South Bend for Baton Rouge to become LSU Fighting Tigers football head coach a few days later.
Lots of haters here. This is why ND will be in the playoffs because there will be a lot of people watching. ND = BIG $$$ and you petty people need to accept it. 🤣🤣🤣
@@rossbaseball100 True, that's a fair point. Not sure the playoff committee will think like that - sure hope they do tho! ND has no business in the playoffs, like usual.
@@jimbo4612 They don’t need complete chaos. All that needs to happen for for them is for Georgia to beat Alabama in the SEC title game, which seems likely, then one of these next things need to happen. Cincy loses to Houston, Michigan loses to Iowa, or Oklahoma State loses to Baylor.
I actually would love to see Notre Dame face Clemson in a bowl game. Clemson is coming on just as strong. What a match up that would be. Also with all of the 7 freshman on offense, and a speedy QB in Buchner, ND will be gearing up for a 3 year run.
@@jimbo4612 Ummm…they’ve only been with NBC since 1991. They’ve NEVER played an FCS opponent. The only other team that’s never played an FCS opponent is UCLA.
@@Whoopdido777 90 the year Joe Paterno nailed it calling ND a Academic program that turned into a Banking institute. ND just expects to be paid and a FCS could never pay what ND wants. It would be most of some FCS teams budget. B.Kelley best describes ND as a traveling show "His exact words" and show actors want to get paid.
@@jimbo4612 Seriously dude I don’t know what your problem is. Did you apply and not get in or something? Notre Dame just does what it does. If they happen to lose big games or maybe get into the playoffs and get blown out, then so be it. Life goes on. There are more important things to worry about.
If you wanna play that game, ND beat GTech 55-0 while Georgia “only” beat them 45-0. ND had a stronger win against Wisconsin than Michigan did. ND had a stronger win against UNC than Pitt did. All 3 of those teams are headed for their conference championship and are projected to win their respective conferences.
I live in Georgia and I'm a Georgia fan, but my grandfather played football for the Irish. ND was favored by 20.5 and won by 31 with most of their backups in the game during the 4th quarter. Anything over 30 points is a nice score in football. How is 45-14 on the road not impressive against a team who beat #3 Oregon? ND is 9-3 against the spread and has been playing much better every week.
What did you think of Coan's performance?
Solid. He had time to throw
He did great
ND deserves to be in the playoffs.
No.
As it stands no. ND is probably 5th or 6th best in nation. But if teams lose then that number easily goes up because they lose their credit

Cincy loses to Houston
Michigan loses to Iowa
Oklahoma State loses to Baylor
If that happens, ND will slide in.
@@aidanc1088 definitely not Oklahoma state. Pac 12 sucks. They lost to Iowa st.
I’m sorry, your call to the playoffs could not be completed as dialed. Please beat Cincy first then try again at a later time, thank you.
Go Irish give us a NY6 bowl
PLAYOFFS DUDE ALL OR NOTHING
Kevin Austin is a first round player.
That’s a bit of a stretch
Not yet. It's in his best interest to come back for 1 more year.
No he isn’t. Im as big of an ND fan as they come and I doubt he’ll even get drafted
@@chrisdufort6623 ok I’m an nd fan and that’s cap
He'll be back next year and be a 2nd round pick
This turned out to be Brain Kelly's last game as Notre Dame football head coach as he left South Bend for Baton Rouge to become LSU Fighting Tigers football head coach a few days later.
ND vs Ohio St. Or Michigan St. In a NY6 game
Lots of haters here. This is why ND will be in the playoffs because there will be a lot of people watching. ND = BIG $$$ and you petty people need to accept it. 🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely. But they will be smacked like usual. They are good, but not playoff good. It will just be boring to watch them lose 38-0 in the playoffs.
@@Kingkongphil hater
@@Kingkongphil I’m a Notre Dame fan and that’s fair
@@Kingkongphil getting smacked like Alabama did against Trevor Lawrence? Or Oklahoma getting ripped for 28 pts in 5 minutes by Bama?
@@ThatOneGuyAround Realist
Kevin Austin Jr 61-yarder - 3:58
33-yarder - 0:10
Who would of thought gene gene the dancing machine, jogging off the last time as coach
ND playoffs bound
not with oky state beating Oklahoma. ND can only hope complete chaos occurs which is unlikely
@@jimbo4612 ND is ranked higher than OK State. ND would have needed Auburn to come through.
@@Kingkongphil Oklahoma State just beat a top ten team tho, so they will jump Notre Dame

Welcome to Indy I see the next qb for 10 years or more
"but they beat Oregon"
Notre Dame verse Michigan

Clemson is not getting a new yr 6 bowl
ND sits back, dosent play anybody, while the other schools knock each other out of the playoffs. Brilliant
Yep that’s the benefit of them not playing a tune up game with an FCS opponent like pretty much everyone else.
@@BmoreIrish Power of NBC $$$$$'s

Not that impressive of a win considering that Stanford is 3-9 and just lost 41-11 to California (a team with a 4-7 record) last week.
So what do you think of Oregon and USC?

@@StormAutoAdventures good luck in the conference ch’ip and CFP. Definitely rooting for you guys
@@LPow58
Thanks man! It would be so nice to finally beat Bama if we can. You never know in college FB though lol
They played high-school teams all year and they get recognition. Join a conference and maybe you will be an actual power five school.
Cope
They did last year...and made it to the playoffs. They didn't this year and will once again make the playoffs.
Well not everyone can lose to Kansas State
@@diggingmystyle ND is beating 2-3 win programs whoopy!!
@@jimbo4612 and Okie State lost to freaking Iowa State 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Notre Dame better not make the playoff 🙄
They could if Alabama loses to Georgia which will happen btw I’m a notre dame fan
Why not?
I agree Nortre dame shouldn’t get in they play nobodys and lost to their one tough opponent Cincinnati
I can’t remember any big games that ND won this year
