Yeah, it's like very different than what college football fans are used to, too. I mean, I've seen all these arguments about like devaluing the regular season. I'm not saying like the 12 team playoff is better or worse, but it is just different than what fans are used to. Like to have a team that lost twice in the regular season go on a run like this and win the national championship is different.

But you can't say that they didn't deserve it. You can't say they're not the best team in college football. They've beaten like four of the top 10 teams ever.

in the final eight people just like in the last month like they're obviously stand out amongst a crowd of really good teams and you know unfortunately I'm a Notre Dame fan and Notre Dame was a really good team this year they just weren't as good as Ohio State and I think you know it's a bummer and obviously it got close late in the game so there's like a little bit of hope but at the end of the day Ohio State was just you know played a better full game of a better more complete game and so yeah they came away with the win much deserved though I think

Yeah, I was very surprised. That was the sort of in-game decision making that went, you know, I kind of at this point in like the three years of Marcus Freeman, I kind of know when he's going to go for it, when he's not going to go for it. I was surprised. And I saw that, you know, the math said it was a toss up. It's basically your four or nine from like, you know, the nine yard line.

the chances of scoring a touchdown on fourth and nine, very slim, the chance of making the field goal much higher, but you're only cutting it from a two possession game to a two possession game. So it is a toss up at that point. I understand his explanation of it. I think that, you know, obviously that that's a kick that Mitch Jeter makes most of the time. Like he was hurt during the season.

And so he wasn't a very accurate kicker, but in the post season, he's been very, very good. He's made much longer field goals than that. So definitely the doink looms large. However, I understand the decision. Either way, it's a really tough spot. It's probably not what I would have wanted them to decide to do.

But ultimately, yeah, it looks a lot worse because you missed a chip shot field goal there.

It's okay if you don't care about Riley. No one's making you care about Riley Leonard. You can care about whatever you want to care about.

I think Notre Dame fans care about it, but you don't have to care about it.

I mean, yeah, like the first drive was great and I was like, this is a good start. But going into the game, I think I was pretty realistic about it. Like it had to be a low scoring game for Notre Dame to win. I think it was a difficult test for Notre Dame. I predicted Ohio State would win. So I wasn't like expecting Notre Dame to pull one off. I hoped that they would.
