Zloggt	4	I have not, and likely STILL not consider myself to be a Notre Dame fan...but since I have family that will now be working in the great big Amazon project thingy in Mishawaka(?) - therefore making the House of Zloggt have a presence in the South Bend area for at least the next two years, if not more - I suppose that I will have to apply a "Fighting Irish FOLLOWER" label to my chest now. So therefore, in my first act as a psuedo-ND fan, is the choice to slightly overrate them above other teams whom I lack the same level of light connection! But hey, Notre Dame is still Notre Dame, and even in this increasingly unfamiliar college football landscape, they remain a constant in a consistently changing world. And sure, their persistence to NOT sell out and stay indie does make for a more difficult path to the Playoffs (especially since they cannot rely on AQs and whatnot)...but hey, Freeman's a swell coach, and they always be having good players no matter what, so they have the potential. And with that, I give them my...moderate support!

bretticus33	14	I don’t understand why we keep putting Notre Dame in the preseason top 10. A good team? Yes. A top 10 team? Doubtful. Until Notre Dame can actually live up to the top 10 expectations, let’s stop putting the Irish up there.

Charlemagne42	15	Normally, you don't want to play @ Texas A&M early in the season. It's hot, it's wet, and the Aggies are in their "we're gonna win a 17-0 national championship" era. Usually that era doesn't end until week 6 or so, when other teams accustomed to hot, wet, and talent that doesn't work hard show up on A&M's schedule. Notre Dame will put an end to that Tradition (TM). However, they'll drop a couple late, including to Florida State, and without a conference title as that Thirteenth Data Point (TM) they'll miss the playoff in its first-ever controversy of the 12-team format. They still won't join a conference.

xX_GIGA_MAN_Xx	7	Good ole Notre Dame. To me, they're like Texas A&M and Miami (FL); have lots of talent income and hype surrounding the team every season, just to eventually stumble and fall somewhere along the way to a 8-4 - 10-2 season. Maybe this year will be different? Probably not. Based on their schedule, I think anything less then 11-1 is a disappointment, but I'm 20 and Notre Dame has been nationally elite maybe twice in my conscious lifetime? I'm not holding out hope for them

Didn't work out tremendously last time but who knows. What's the definition of insanity again? Still a talented team tho
