IF the Vols had ND's schedule, what would our record be?

[LAVol1]

I like to bash ND's SOS. ND's only quality win was against #17 USC at home. Likely, it won't be a top 20 win after USC gets trounced by Oregon.

I’m just here for the ND bashing.

How many games would we be favored in? That’s how many we would win

Vols would still likely be a 2 loss team...but hey...better than 3 I guess.

We would have 1 loss at this pt

OP, I just like to bash ND because they are always overrated and overhyped not to mention their reluctance to join a conference.

We would lose to A&M and Banks would make Beck look like a Heisman contender for one game. Like the other poster said, two losses is better than 3. Bonus points for the sheer intrigue of watching Heupel coach against Riley.

Favorite teams, besides Vols, whoever is playing ND, Ohio St or AL. My list is a lot longer, shortened for time. Ha

My Daddy taught me long ago to disdain those 'bead-stringers' (Leonard PostToasties lingo). I'll stand by it today. Irish are perpetually overrated.

I just miss having a rivalry with ND.

That comeback we made at ND was awesome.

I agree with bashing ND, but truth be told they have more quality wins than us at this point…..

Notre Dame's TV deal with NBC is worth approximately $50 million per year, with the agreement extended through the 2029 season. This is in addition to the estimated $17 million per year the school receives from the ACC for non-football sports and its ACC football scheduling arrangement. Combined, these media rights are expected to generate roughly $67 million annually for Notre Dame.

I agree that Notre Dame is overrated, but they have 1 more quality win than we do.

They also share a common opponent. They handled Arkansas. We did not.

Well, they would have less than 3 losses

 

[Jax_Vol]

I admire Notre Dame.

They play two good teams per year, lose both games, and get into the playoffs.

It is the lucky charms.

 

[lastlapuncle]

We aren't playing N.Dame because we are not Temple,Navy.sisters of the poor.Irish strength of schedule makes Osu and any big 19(12) schedule look like a number 2 strength.Screw them daily/

 

[DaddyChad]

Notre Dame is overrated. Sadly they’re a better team than us as well.

Burns my ass to say it but it’s true this year. Our defense and our special teams cannot be depended on. Our offense can be special when the Oline does their jobs.

“The BEST two loss team in the country!!”

“The BEST two loss team in the country!!”

Every year....or so it seems.

a tip of the hat to the Irish!!

 

[Rocky Top T]

We would have 2-3 losses

 

[allvols4life]

10-2 absolutely worst case scenario, but more likely than not 11-1

 

[allvols4life]

Notre Dame sucks as does all the weak tit conference and indie teams. SEC > than all others

 

[unfrozencvmanvol]

Well, we have 1 common opponent, Arkansas. ND beat Arkansas 56-13 in Arkansas. We beat Arkansas 34-31 in Neyland. I think we'd have beat most everyone they have beaten though USC would be coin flip. I don't have alot of confidence we'd have beaten A&M and Miami either. I'll say we'd have 2 losses also.
