4 point loss to FSU 2014
2 point loss to Clemson 2015
1 point loss to UGA 2017
27 point loss to clemson 2018
so let me guess which game you want to focus on - 3 Of the 4 games against teams who were going to embarass us came down to the last play and only one was at home
so if you were the head coach poor mouth your team so you dont get a playoff spot and if invited decline because you are afraid you might lose bad
go find a wizard to give you some courage
but I guess that doesn’t matter to you. I remember and so does everyone else. By the way the first three games were regular season games and not championship games. There is a difference you know. Keep making excuses if it makes you feel better.
are you that stupid not too understand it is exactly the same players in a playoff game as in regular season ? maybe so. the reason they play playoff games on neutral site is because home field is huge advantage. I have never met a fan of any team that would turn down a chance to play for a championship vs play in the joke bowl to win vs wyoming. keep running scared cupcake but dont call yourself a fan.
tOSU, Bama and Clemson games were all on the road, as was ND? And if I’m correct the UGA losses were at ND and Sanford stadium. The Clemson loss was on the road for ND I believe and the FSU loss was in Tallahassee. Correct me if I wrong. But who the F cares. They were all losses. No ribbons for just competing is there?
You implied that we will be destroyed - embarrassed. That we cannot compete with playoff caliber teams. My point, to spell it out, is that in the playoff era we have played actual playoff teams 4 times - twice in hostile night game environments (FSU a controversial call from a win, and Clemson in a monsoon). Both of those games we more than held our own - there was no beat down by a superior team. UGA at home was a one point loss easily could have gone either way - 1 in a 100 miracle catch beat us. Clemson Cotton Bowl was tight til 90 secs left in first half when Love injury hurt bad. They "beat down" Bama by one point more than us the next week. If you are going to bring up OSU fair to also bring up two wins vs LSU conveniently omitted. Hard to understand who you are afraid to play - I'm sure you were predicting UGA would beat down on Notre Dame this year too. In our last 31 games we have had two "beat downs" - Miami and Clemson. How many teams have had that few in that time frame? Not many
All the losses were close over the last 10 - 15 years. So with the exception of Oklahoma, ND hasn’t beat a top 5 team in 15 years. But some of those have been close.
How many teams are better over last 3 years? Not many. you really believe games from 10-15 years ago have any relevance to todays team? we have won 17 our last 18 regular season games - only loss was by six points on the road to a top ten team and you really want to bad mouth this group? I will take my chances with this group vs anybody while you order your Poulan Weedeater Bowl Champion t shirts.
