The college football season is almost over and I have a few reflections from bowl season. I love OU, and the Fiesta bowl was hard to watch, but I do have to admit that it was one of the best pure football games I have ever seen. It was just plain crazy. It does bother me a lot that we have lost three straight BCS games. Anyways on to the main point in my post. Notre Dame is considered to be the preminent college football program in America. Many people say that they play the toughest schedule every year. I assert that, that statement has been proven false over the last decade by the Notre Dame bowl results. Over the last 11 years here are the results for Notre Dame bowl games 2006 LSU 41- ND 14, Sugar Bowl 2005 Ohio St. 34- ND 20, Fiesta Bowl 2004 Oregon St. 38- ND 21, Insight.com Bowl 2002 NC St. 28-6 ND, Gator Bowl 2000 Oregon St. 41- ND 9 1998 Georgia Tech 35- ND 28, Gator Bowl 1997 LSU 27- ND 9, Independence Bowl 1995 FSU 31- ND 26, Orange Bowl In eight years they have not had one competitive bowl game, they have been blownout in every one they played in. This is a vastly overestimated program, that does not deserve the attention it gets. The team gets a good record by playing either bad programs or programs on a down slide. When they play good teams they get killed. I am biased because I do not like Notre Dame, and I never have. I simply want you all to be aware that this overrated and outmatched program does not deserve the attetion it gets. And I can't wait for college football next year. |
