Our newly renovated facility is on another level. One of the best in all of college football!! #GoBears

@SkekTek @TomDienhart1 Probably on all of his 12 extra points.

@TomDienhart1 I hope he gets mercilessly booed when he plays at Purdue.

Barry Odom on kicker Spencer Porath transferring to Notre Dame. "He never entered the portal here. And it's amazing how that works."

@Twister32733092 @Brett_McMurphy There are dozens and dozens of weaker schedules.

@Brett_McMurphy 🤣🤣🤣 Notre Dame has the weakest schedule of all CFB teams

Notre Dame 2026 schedule Sept 6 Wisconsin at Green Bay Sept 12 Rice Sept 19 Michigan State Sept 26 at Purdue Oct 3 at UNC Oct 10 Stanford Oct 17 at BYU Oct 31 Navy at Foxborough Nov 7 Miami Nov 14 Boston College Nov 21 SMU Nov 28 at Syracuse

Weather update: In response to the extreme cold, UW–Madison is canceling classes on Friday, January 23. The cancelation applies to all class meetings, including lectures, labs and discussion sections. All other campus operations will continue as normal. news.wisc.edu/weather-update…

@RinoMonteforte1 @KU_Football @CoachDeWeen @CoachOnatolu @HKA_Tanalski Congrats Rino was awesome getting to know you this season! Coach Leipold is a legend up here in Wisconsin. We will be cheering for you!

One last ride❗️Thank You Jesus❤️#RockChalk @KU_Football @CoachDeWeen @CoachOnatolu

@MattLepay Don is one of the best ever.. along with Lepay and Keels. B1G has some great voices.

Nice touch by Chris Fowler & Kirk Herbstreit to recognize Indiana Hoosiers radio voice Don Fischer. A lot of us in the game calling industry are big IU fans today. Thrilled to hear Don call a Rose Bowl game.

@Brett_McMurphy Advice.. just go back to posting news. You are NEVER funny.

The last time the Rose Bowl has seen a team look this bad was ... well, every UCLA home game this season

@CFBdownSOUTH @sparklyChicago @slmandel That has zero to do with the ACC.

@sparklyChicago @slmandel You hear about them cancelling their bowl game?

Yes, I can just picture Notre Dame’s heartbroken players got together in the locker room and said, “You know what we should do? Shut down our season so ESPN’s ratings for the Pop-Tarts Bowl go down and they lose some ad revenue.”

@DanWetzel @ChrisHatcher17 @slmandel You don’t really know how they were thinking internally. Sure Bevacqua said after the fact they were gaslit but they absolutely knew it was a possibility. And good coaches don’t warn guys “hey fellas keep in mind you may not have any meaningful games left.”

Agree with you. But watching this committee each week, what would lead anyone to think it would act in a predictable or smart manner. Players may not recognize it but administrators should have. The early rankings are like mock drafts. Plus, for weeks the committee was asked - even ripped by some - for having ND ahead of Miami. This was not settled to anyone paying attention.

@TomP228 @TheCantoneZone @PittFanaticsFB @ACCFootball Miami game attendance was only 49,000. Pitt sold out ND game (almost 70,000) first sellout in 3 years.

@TheCantoneZone @PittFanaticsFB @ACCFootball Take away the ND and Miami games and I guarantee it’s under 20,000. Lots of empty yellow seats at Pitt games.

Let's end the relationship then lol @ACCFootball The conference has more than bent over enough for ND.

@RufusOnCourtSt @Outkick @dandakich My god for the 12,000th time the players made the choice. Why are people so slow?

@Outkick @dandakich Deny your own student athletes one more game. Did their seniors dirty.

"The nation got to see Notre Dame football & that administration for what it really is" @DanDakich unloads on Notre Dame & their AD for whining to the media about missing the CFP

@AndrewBrandt Come on man this has been discussed for 24 hours. Senior captains made the call on this.

Amid all the back-and-forth about Notre Dame and other schools turning down Bowl games, have we thought about the fact that maybe, just maybe, the players just wanted to play another game? Which, for some, would be their last football game they ever play, at any level?

@hcanes100 @mrchiefilly @MHver3 You know what NDs AD did before he was AD right?

@mrchiefilly @MHver3 that deal expires in 2029, and NBC sure doesn't want to re-up it again. Not in this environment.

Notre Dame is exiting ACC for non-football sports and is currently looking for a new home. Expect an announcement by the end of Jan. This is breaking.

@CaseyMoninghoff @BudElliott3 @CBSSports Just me I guess, and I don’t know you or him, but his entire thread is completely ridiculous and when he saw it head south he mocked your degree. But you be you.

@EricFrankeTV @BudElliott3 @CBSSports No, neither of us are poor human beings. Did I call bud’s post out and want better? Yes, he’s done nothing to indicate he’s an awful person and my wanting better from where I’m standing doesn’t make me one either Not gonna be attacked or let someone attack someone as a person

But they cherry pick the worst P5 teams Wisconsin, Michigan State, Purdue, UNC, BC, Cuse, Stanford That’s lie six name brands who kinda look good but aren’t trying to compete to win their leagues

@BudElliott3 @CaseyMoninghoff @CBSSports What a poor human being. My goodness.

@CaseyMoninghoff @CBSSports Start your own show. Maybe people will listen.

@Grateful_Trojan @JasonShubnell @PeteSampson_ Doubt it. Way too much money to be had. They’ve had no trouble lining up non-conference series lately. Only issue was space in part due to ACC obligations.

@JasonShubnell @PeteSampson_ Extremely difficult

Pete Bevacqua said the ACC did “permanent damage” to its relationship with Notre Dame, speaking on the Dan Patrick Show

@LWOSVanHouten @the_jc2 @PeteSampson_ Think the comment was partners. And that’s not debatable. They have a contractual agreement.

@the_jc2 @PeteSampson_ Notre Dame is a full member in football?

@4Brazzers @JasonShubnell @PeteSampson_ Doubt it. And they are criticized anyway for playing the ACC teams that the ACC schedules for them. Same teams are considered a gauntlet for FSU, Clemson and Miami.

@JasonShubnell @PeteSampson_ In reality, will be tough to fill out back half with quality opponents (not like the dog shit under invested football programs from the acc are really helping tbf)

@ryanstroop @JasonShubnell @PeteSampson_ Big East would immediately take them and Big 10 isn’t kicking them out in hockey.

@JasonShubnell @PeteSampson_ would also have to find a conference for all olympic sports, too, no? I imagine ACC wouldn't take them without football.

@jontweetssports This comment illustrates so many things wrong with college sports and you cluelessly celebrate all of them.

When I hear “why go play in a meaningless bowl” I think about Will Muschamp watching his walk-on QB son play in one. Sports are wonderful. I’d give anything to go back & play one more game. You only get a few of them. But ND stuck it to ESPN, amirite?
