Nanker Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Almost hate to say it, but Clemson’s QB looks like a stereotypical trailer park redneck.

They’re never going to win the championship because they have rigorous academic standards. They can never field a team as talented as Alabama or Clemson. If coaching is equal they lose by 30.

YoloinOhio Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 ND “deserved to be in because they played and beat everyone on their schedule which included all FBS teams. But I think going forward they should be banned from the playoff until they join a conference Notre Dame should be banned from the playoff until it joins and wins a conference. This should have been the ACC championship, not a national semifinal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borqued Kelly struck again. ND offensive line is just ok; they struggled to establish a running game several times this year. Dexter Williams was more of a home run hitter this year. Clemson's defensive was terrific and Book played maybe his worst game -- obviously the two were largely related. I thought ND's defense played pretty well....if Love doesn't go down in the first half there's no way Clemon scores on all those long TDs in the second quarter. 1 hour ago, /dev/null said: If not for Notre Dame's special snowflake status this game never would have happened.

par73 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Two blowouts. Not entertaining-- just boring football. Notre Dame always overrated, and no conference.

Boatdrinks Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 The Buckeyes may have inexplicably taken the day off vs Purdue, but I have zero doubt they would have given a much better game to either Clemson or Alabama. ND doesn’t have enough elite talent and Oklahoma can’t stop anybody. OSU should have been the 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
