We need Miami to win

Beating Notre Dame would be one less team we have to worry about making the playoffs.

Not looking good. Doesn't matter, they will find a way to take a 2 loss ND football team over a 2 loss UK team 100 times out of 100

They will take any other 2 loss team over us but I’d like to make them do it at least.

ND up two scores at half. Because the universe hates our guts. Man this weekend has just SUCKED.

I know coming off this loss “our season is over” mentality creeps in. We were overrated anyway, but NO SEC TEAM WITH TWO LOSSES WILL BE LEFT OUT.
we just out ourselves in a very difficult road ahead.

Notre Dame is a better football team than Kentucky.

 

[UKCowboys]

Notre Dame is a better football team than Kentucky.

Probably so

 

[UKreturntogreatness]

Miami not having the game changing player in Tony spelled doom.

 

[Chadrock]

Probably so

Yep, they’ve only had all the time B.C. and after to build their football powerhouse - but now that buying players and cheating to obtain resources is legal, UK now has a more level playing field. The $ will be there.

Just hoping Miami wins the ACC outright. Don’t need ND, Miami AND another ACC team making their case for the playoffs.

The best teams should be in the playoffs period. That was the committee's original goal. When you don't put the best teams in you get an overrated Bama crossing midfield once, when they play against a true contender. Notre Dame belonged over Oklahoma and Bama.

If you want to make that case, convince Notre Dame to play an actual schedule.

5 ranked teams on their schedule last season. 10 power 4 programs this season. LSU, South Carolina, Ole Miss, Florida, Missouri, and Oklahoma are average football teams.

Okay, Irish, you are on the wrong board for that kind of spin. Notre Dame has two teams on its schedule that compare to those you mention. Notre Dame has played 5 teams who now have losing records and will play only 2 ranked teams all year absent an SMu resurgence.

Every single team on that list is as good or better than every team ND has played and will play except Miami and they didn’t have their best player. UK’s SOS is world better that ND and if we played in the ACC I bet we wouldn’t lose another game(one at most and year) and win the championship game. Calling LSU and Ole Miss average is hilarious. Hell Oklahoma would win the ACC.

It's not a spin. South Carolina just game up damn near 500 yards to a terrible Texas A&M team but Wisconsin isn't as good as them? There is a reason that Wisconsin's OOC schedule in the past 5 seasons includes Alabama and ND. It's because their normal years are kind of like UK's year this season. This is a normal year for Wisconsin. Michigan St just beat Michigan who has knocked off Oklahoma this season. We know who Oklahoma has beaten already. Do you see what I'm getting at. Somehow when the SEC teams beat each other its because anyone can get beat on anytime. This happens in other conferences and it's see, so and so is bad.

I'll end it by saying there is not team in the country capable of beating ND by two scores. I will say the same thing about UGA. Everyone else in the country can't say that. ND played C+ game against BYU and had a chance to win in the end. They were outplayed and had everything going against them and still had a chance to win in the end. I don't know what kind of drugs UGA took in the Auburn gm but they played by far their worst game of the season. Kudos to Auburn for seizing the moment.

 

[TheResistance]

We needed lots of teams to win and I don't believe a single one we needed won.

Ole Miss isn't better than UofL. I watched that game. They play 4 times it's 2-2. UK and UofL end the season against each so we are going to see how that plays out. Wake Forest is actually playing better ball than anyone right now, but because they are Wake Forest the rest of the country is ignoring them. Duke is the defending ACC champions and I don't think they want to relinquish their title. SMU has home run hitters at every single skills position.

Oklahoma lost to Michigan. They are not good. They wouldn't come within the top 6 of any of the Power conferences.

 

[BBPirate]

Win out we are in, lose another game we are out - literally that simple. We just need to worry about Kentucky at this point.

Oh, Irish is now saying the two best teams in the country are UGA and ND. LOL

ND is good because UM beat OU and MSU beat UM? Wow. Did you also include BYU beating ND and then getting beat by UCF? You know 5-4 UCF. Are you arguing UCF is as good as ND?

again, assuming SMU loses to Wake, ND has beaten one ranked team and five teams with losing records.

Just like there team, they don't have a board to play on!

Let me slow it down for you. Michigan is not good. Michigan St is not good. Oklahoma is not good. I provided a daisy chain for people to see, which is what the SEC thrives on.

Serious question for you. Do you think anyone in the SEC could beat ND by two scores?

Georgia

Georgia

I respect that answer but it wouldn't happen. ND is as physical as Georgia if not more. The last time they met ND was a way more physical team but that was 2 seasons ago. Kirby found out real quick that it wasn't a Brian Kelly team anymore.
