ND legit?

Notre Dame legit? Defense elite?

More legitimate than we are

If they don't turn the ball over and get that late PI penalty it is likely a 14 point win for the domers.

Totally honest. Undergrad at UTC, PhD in Literature from Vandy and PhD from ND. I thought I understood fandom, ND is completely different.

I mean if you can get to the championship game and people think you might not be "legit," does being "legit" really matter?

That makes zero sense.

 

[GordonC]

That makes zero sense.

if you're in the championship game, does it really matter if people think you're legit or not? you'll get a chance to prove it.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

They have gone 7-0 vs ranked teams. Yes ND is absolutely legit.

They already have proven it.

People laughed at me when I said Notre Dame was he sleeper. I get it. They loss to NIU and people wrote them off. I doubt they beat OSU/Texas winner but who knows

 

[utchatt]

That makes zero sense.

Explain. Please.

Notre Dame legit? Defense elite?

No. Penn State isn’t good either. Penn State is worse than:

Us
Georgia (with Beck)
Texas
Bama
South Carolina
Ole Miss

I think any of those 6 teams would have beat Penn State bad.

Did you watch this game? Both these teams looked not great.

In a good way or a bad way

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

That was just the easy side of the bracket. We could have made it to the Final from there. The real national championship is tonight when Texas and Ohio State play.

 

[AstonRoyal]

I have no idea how Notre Dame will score against Tex/OSU’s defenses. I honestly consider this cotton bowl to be the national championship game

Drinking heavily I see. I approve.

What lol

 

[Volbrando]

Not a fan of Notre Dame but I’m starting to like their coach.

 

[vols 30]

2 legit 2 quit

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

More legitimate than we are

Not so sure about that

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

What he said is fairly plausible. It is the easy side of the bracket, and yes we could have beat any of those teams. Would we? I don't know and neither do you

 

[Raebo]

As legit as anyone not named Texas or OSU.

A LOT of bias around here.

 

[CAVPUT]

Notre Dame legit? Defense elite?

You betcha. Plus they've got a great coach and they believe. Makes 'em a real threat if their opponent doesn't bring their A game.

Notre Dame is a national brand where almost everyone else is regional.

Nice flex btw. PhDs from Vandy and ND.
