Why doesn't NCAA, ESPN, ABC, CBS and FOX tell Notre Dame


Jul 5, 2022, 11:13 PM

"You will not be eligible for any of our TV games or Playoff considerations if you are not in a conference. Go take your NBC money and compete with whoever you can find to make a schedule."

Of course their arrogant arses would probably sue everyone for discrimination.

Why do they need to join a conference?***

The playoff selection committee prioritizes conference champions when weighing
potential contenders. That's not to say they NEED to join a conference but rather
all things being equal the nod will undoubtedly go to a conference champion. Notre Dame
could still make a run but they would almost certainly have to run the table

As they have done with the past. Weren’t they undefeated when we played them in the semi-finals?

if they haven't fully joined? Fish or cut bait

I don't have an issue with that from an ACC perspective...


Jul 6, 2022, 9:00 AM

just curious as to why all those entities listed in the OP would want to force ND to join a conference?

To keep all teams playing with the same conditions

For the past 20 years or so, ND has been about a "6 or 7 rated kinda girl", but the media hype has been like Glamour Shots and made them out to be a 9 or 10. The elitist & elevated perception has carried them to a position where there have been too many exceptions or clauses to make sure they are a part of the Championship conversations. Putting them in a conference would ensure that they are actually earning their spot as a true contender.

Why do the networks care?…

It’s coming across as you being bitter they didn’t pick us and you want somebody else to do something about it.

If ND joins a conference, it'll be the B1G. Why would anyone outside of the B1G and ND even care?

They will make plenty of money and do not have to share it with anyone…

The question I have always wondered was house SC survived being independent with a basketball membership in the Metro??

ND will go to a weak conference and get a temporary membership. That is all

ND has made the playoffs several times despite not being a conference Champion so why would they suddenly now think it was a necessity?

At some point, the Super Conferences with 20+ teams will have more conference games and ND will be squeezed out and lucky to play more than 4 or 5 quality games per year. Playing ND will not fit in the Super Conference Out-of-Confernce schedules. That won't qualify ND for the CFP. ND can stick to their guns and shrivel up or come along for the ride. They will be insignificant in 10 - 15 years staying independent. You know, kind of like if the ACC sits on their hands and does nothing.
