Why would they not? Roncalli HATES Cathedral. Roncalli hated Cathedral so much that at one point several years back, they tried to dictate where Cathedral got their kids ie "X amount of football roster must be catholic" while also telling Cathedral to stay out of the south deanery. When Cathedral laughed in their face, they took their ball and went home and stopped playing them. Cowards.

If Roncalli had the ability to beat Cathedral 63-0, they'd do it, hyperbole or not.

Hard to say when one team has ducked the other for over a decade.

Roncalli would do the same in a heart beat....if they could.

Hope Cathedral beats those cowar...errr Royals, 63-0. People don't forget.

He's got unbelievable talent and arm strength. His game has taken off since being in DeBoer's system. Biggest knock in Penix is always going to be his prior injuries. Penix suffered season ending injuries all 4 years at IU. Can obviously fault IU for lack of line protection but two of them have come on non-contact ACL injuries and a broken clavicle sneaking it in from the 1 yard for a TD. It is what it is at this point. I just don't know if a GM can afford to leverage a first round pick on Penix, let alone a top 5 pick given his past. But he certainly has all the makings of being a massive steal for somebody and has all the tools to make it at the level.

Not saying it’s the end be all, but Sagarin has Northrop as a 2 TD favorite over Tech.

Per Sagarin, Tech would lose to about 80% of teams regardless of class. 5A and 6A account for 20% of all teams. Embarrassing lack of leadership at the IPS level.

Not if you have an undefeated B10 team and undefeated Pac 12 team along with assuming Texas and FSU run the table.

Shame on me for thinking IU may have turned a corner after a strong 2nd half offensive showing against Louisville. Saturday night was pathetic. Walt Bell should have been fired yesterday but honestly don't know who they'd have call plays? The Tom Allen era can't end soon enough.

I think it's highly likely PSU/UM/OSU all hold serve at home meaning those 3 teams all finish with 1 conference loss given the way the schedule plays out. How does the tiebreaker work in that scenario? There might be multiple B10/PAC 12 teams left out of the playoff assuming Texas and FSU go undefeated which their schedules seem to dictate they will. Could this be the year the SEC doesn't send a team period? I think the SEC is massively overrated. Georgia not running the table could end their bid.

Somebody from OSU sure as hell spotted it. They ran right where the missing defensive lineman should have been.

All coming out of a timeout. OSU grounded the ball on 1st and G to stop the clock, ND called their last TO and broke the huddle with 10 men. I realize Freeman is a nice guy who most want to see succeed but that’s absolutely inexcusable.

Won’t excuse OSU short yardage play calling because it’s a 2 score win if they execute, but their defense was on the field for what felt like the entire 2H. Henderson busted one early and I’m not sure they got another first down until the last drive. Believe I saw a stat at one point where ND had run 30 2nd half plays to OSU’s 7 and had better than a 3:1 TOP ratio.

Douglass had some athletes that will be playing high level football.

Exactly. You’re on the 1, it’s a 6 inch penalty.

Again, I haven’t said he needs to be fired, but if you think the responsibility of having 11 men on the field lies anywhere but with the head coach you’ve lost your mind. By the way, he literally acknowledged he knew he didn’t have enough guys on the field.

He needs to get there first lol. Guarantee you Day has never trotted out 10 players to defend 2nd and 3rd and Goal from the 1 yard line with the game on the line. How do you defend that as a Notre Dame fan?

I’m not calling for anyone’s head, just simply saying this was the fear when you hire somebody who doesn’t know what they’re doing.

Coaching malpractice by Freeman. It’s exactly why so many people questioned his hire. Forget the last 2 plays where they only had 10 players on the field, it doesn’t even get to that point if ND doesn’t throw the ball and a subsequent incompletion on 2nd down the drive before. Remember, OSU was called for intentional grounding with 15 seconds left and was able to call a TO they shouldn’t have had to prevent a 10 second runoff. They ended up running 4 more plays instead of snapping the ball at the 20 with 5 seconds left. Failure

Shannon and Banks were the only Mr. Football winners on that list. Robertson himself was a defensive lineman, believe Brandon Peters won it that year who I certainly don't have any qualms with. If Blake Fisher didn't win Mr. Football tough for me seeing any future lineman winning.

One is not like the other in that list. All those guys with the exception of Shannon were afforded scholarships to major D1 programs. Still a phenomenal list of high school players regardless.

Banks was much more physically gifted than Otis Shannon.

He did have two NFL offensive lineman. But Otis at the time broke the state rushing record the year he won and likely would have added to it had they not been upset early in sectionals.

ASU's starting QB was ruled out 4-6 weeks before the Fresno State game and they lost QB's #2 and 3 during the game.
