Notre Dame chose to be independent - that comes with benefits (get to create their own schedule as they wish), financial independence, etc., but also comes with risks (no conference to win for automatic bid). so they have no reason to bitch. Additionally, starting next year they are basically assured to make the playoffs every single year (automatic bid if they are in top 12 - and the aforementioned ability to tailor the schedule - e.g., in 2026 Notre Dame plays only three true road games — North Carolina, Syracuse and Purdue — and has neutral-site contests against Wisconsin and Navy. and plays one team that made the playoffs this year - Miami). So little interest in hearing their cries.


Careful. Last time I knew someone who criticized ND, that person ended up pinned against a wall at Tony's by BobcatSquared.

Living in NJ I have a lot of friends who went to Rutgers.

The all feel Rutgers should have taken a bowl bid, even if they did just fire several defensive coaches.

cc-cat is still bitter about Notre Dame since the Irish beat his Nittany Lions and Joe Pa in the 1976 Gator Bowl.
