First round of the playoffs. Does anyone else


Nov 21, 2018, 6:48 AM

Find it very annoying we will likely play a team that gets an extra week to heal up/ rest and game plan for us. Life isn’t fair, but it still irks me. Just win Baby.

no one to blame but the ACC

Let them join everything but football.

Can't even really blame the ACC. Notre Dame is too Gosh "All High and Mighty" to join any conference.
But even if they were a true "Independent" they remain undefeated and will be considered by the committee.

When you have 4 weeks to prepare


Nov 21, 2018, 7:00 AM

Adding an extra week really doesn’t make that big of a difference. Just an extra week to try to balance getting your team rested but not letting them get rusty.

Plus, you’re lying to yourself if you don’t think we have analysts already studying likely playoff opponents.

7 days is big...if bama's LBS didn't have time to


Nov 21, 2018, 7:47 AM

heal, maybe clemson can run better against them.

the biggest advantage they have is safety.

Wisconsin was IN the playoffs...Bama was out.

Wisconsin had to play an extra game. .Bama didn't. .


just too much to lose , nothing to gain.

The extra week is not as big a deal as

the extra game we'll have to play. Pitt is another physical team similar to BC. 13 games takes a bigger toll than 12.

The definition of awesome!


No, they will be more rusty than us.***

I find it very annoying and should not be allowed to happen. Even something as a targeting call on some of our key players might cost us in the CFP. Any possible injuries during the ACCCG will also hurt our chances. ND is a pretty good team IMO, and will compete very well with whichever team they play, so they do not need an extra week of rest and planning. Totally unfair on multiple levels.

Kelly with that same 'lugubrious' look from Death Valley...

ain't gonna matter... Even if they try and slide us Khaki Pants,... ain't gonna matter.

There are four weeks between the ACCCG and playoff game so your argument is silly at best

"heal up / rest " for 7 days vs


Nov 21, 2018, 7:54 AM

"line up and take some more hits"

If something happens to 1 of clemson's players in the ACC Championship game, you may change your mind.

Plus any team not coached by Saban will likely be rusty from the long layoff

Keep in mind


Nov 21, 2018, 7:34 AM

This will be ND and Michigan’s first time going to the playoff which I think gives Bama and Clemson a big edge as they have figured out the best way to get prepared for this.

And Tua is going to have a lot of Heisman obligations while our guys are in Clemson having the tape of last year’s Sugar Bowl play in the background of their workouts.

ND?

Don't make me laugh.

According to some vocal folks here, Notre Dame totally sucks


Nov 21, 2018, 7:42 AM

So I'm assuming that The Irish getting an extra week off will have no bearing on the outcome versus our beloved Tigers.

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


I agree. The only reason we lost to Ohio State in the CFP


Nov 21, 2018, 7:51 AM

2 years ago is because they had that extra week of rest! And now it's going to happen again with ND!

Re: I agree. The only reason we lost to Ohio State in the CFP


Nov 21, 2018, 8:02 AM

What’s interesting is that if we do get ND, and I hope we do, we will have played a team with an extra week of rest the last 3 years. Not complaining, just pointing it out.
