Notre Dame mourns Lou Holtz in tribute video: 'He was the father of all of us' RIP, Coach!

Terrible coaching decisions by Sean Payton cost his team a trip to the Super Bowl.

I agree that ESPN really has too much say so in this and that's unfortunate! I find myself trying to not watch much Espn since they seem to be accentuating the E. It's not possible to avoid them totally, but a lot of their entertainment shows I do avoid more and more.

Center Grove has not played Bloomington South in the recent past. It just seems strange that they have stopped the Cathedral longtime series at this time. Not trying to get at the CG supporters, just wondering why it's Bloomington South instead of Cathedral.

Well, at least Notre Dame losses, early season, were to teams in the tope five. Alabama's two losses, before the SEC championship game, was to non rated teams, or low rated teams. I don't mind those who don't like the Irish, but look beyond the number of losses, but look at who they were against and what the margin happened to be.

The Irish were ready this year at playoff time, the CFP committee wasn't.

Not reading into anything, just wondering! It was a pretty long series.

It was good to see Finebaum having to eat some crow! He was a slow and deliberate I thought he was going to turn Cream and Crimson!😊

They have played Cathedral many years while in the MIC. It just seems strange after losing two straight against the Irish.

So, Cathedral wins two in a row against Center Grove and CG drops the Irish!😉

Here is a link to the Carson Beck story: Carson Beck GPA emerges after Miami QB has not attended class for two years - The Mirror US

A couple of quick items. First of all, Fernando will be on the Tonight Show tonight with Jimmy Fallon and he'll also be on GMA in the morning. I have seen this here yet but 'Canes QB Carson Beck stated on a podcast, iirc, that he hasn't gone to school, so to speak, at Miami as he received his degree at Georgia. Is it normal for a player not be a student? I guess since they're just hired by the university, it must not matter. Also, the talk about IU not beating teams that were included in the CFP is not valid in my opinion. The mark of a truly good team is just winning when they're not playing their best or just being outplayed by their opponent. IU just refused to lose this season, even when they weren't at their best!

Here's a gamble that didn't pay off: Miami man sells his food truck for $30K to bet $30K on the Hurricanes to win $150K and the Hurricanes lost [PHOTO]

I see the spread in the Indy Star and just pass it along. I don't prognosticate, or gamble, like I used to. I have to try to live within my means. The spread doesn't really matter to me.

The Hoosiers didn't cover the 8.5 or 7.5 spread, but who cares? It was good to hear 107.5, The Fan's JMV recount his experiences in Miami today. That was a once in a lifetime experience!

I've spent some Saturdays at Memorial Stadium also. The tailgates were always the highlight of the day. And some "post game" tailgates started at, or shortly after, halftime.

I really slept good las night! That game wore me out! It's after 10 and I haven't had breakfast yet! This Irish fan is proud of the Hoosiers!

Shame on Coach Freeman for picking the "U!"

Maybe the Game Day folks will finally give some respect to the Hoosiers! McAfee was the only game predictor to pick the Hoosiers.

All is good now! The state of Indiana has a new National Champion! Real life does suck sometimes at my age though.

4th and 5, no problem! What a gutsy call and what a gutsy run! Charlie Becker with a couple of clutch catches! The defense getting out of the prevent at the end and putting on the pass rush! It was all good!

Hoosiers bringin' home the hardware to B'town!

The "U" is still acting the same as they have for years! They whine and push and act like they should be given every call! I hope the Hoosiers continue to control the game.

That's good! I had life issues that prevented me from watching all the Game Day. Anyway, a good segment shows the moment the Irish players found they weren't included in the CFP and the aftermath. Good TV.

I would also encourage those Notre Dame fans, and non fans, to find Coach Freeman's latest news conference from last week. He fully addresses the wrestling situation at the beginning.
