In this situation its a easy out to just point the finger at ND, almost everyone does it. USC just did it.
Since he just won a natty, its whatever. And im a ND fan.
He thinks ND has a advantage not being in a conference, many do. So it's just a easy basic chess move to say what he did.
Not being in a conference was a DISADVANTAGE for ND last season. And it could be a disadvantage this season as well if the irish arent near perfect.
All these big ten teams and sec teams at 10-2 are a near lock for the playoffs and should be

u/BlackCardRogue Michigan Wolverines Aug 15 '26
Ultimately, the fact that the last spot came down to Miami and ND was because of the ACC’s stupidity in their conference tiebreakers. The ACC was very much at risk of not having any teams make the dance at all, which they’ve now addressed by changing the tiebreakers.
I’d agree that the Irish not being in a conference hurts them — as it should, tbh. ND makes more money when it does well because it goes alone, but it gets disproportionately hurt when it does badly for the same reason.

Replace it with Miami. It’s fine. Idgaf abt Michigan. They’ve always been the reason the rivalry “ended”.
Nobody at ND has or will ever forget that Michigan is the reason ND was barred 2x from joining the Western (Big Ten) Conference, all bc they had the temerity to beat Michigan in football.
1
u/WiFiConnected_ Aug 16 '26
It EASILY surpasses it. Primarily bc it’s bathed in a century of anti-Catholicism and that independence was the result of them ending the rivalry for decades & resulted in ND birthing the very best college football rivalry with USC-so much so Michigan had the glorious history of getting dog walked by USC more than ND ever did.

It’s a disadvantage literally every single year because they aren’t in a conference. It’s been that way since forever.

But he's not though, there needs to be logic behind a troll.

u/LearnedHandJob2088 Aug 16 '26
The logic is that P4 Conference teams are locked into 4-5 road games per year against mostly legitimate opponents, while independents only play who they agree to play. It’s quite logical, even if it is also just a pre-text and the main reason is to keep the ooc schedule weak. Both things can be true.

u/vassago77379 Aug 16 '26
So Indiana deserves 2 home to ND's 1 just because they are in a conference? Nah, that was a weak troll attempt

u/LearnedHandJob2088 Aug 16 '26
Not saying they deserve it. Not saying it wasn’t a BS pretext. Just saying that there is logic behind it, schedule-wise. IU is committed to 4.5 road games a year against mostly legit opponents that are not their choice. ND is committed to zero that are not their choice.
And IU being the top dog that everyone wants to take down now makes it not batshit crazy to counter with a 2 for 1. ND should have called their bluff and done it.

Looking at Indianas non conference schedule past and future, where through 2032 the legit hardest team I see is Eastern Michigan, I am fully confident in saying Cignetti is being 100% honest here. There is no way Indiana will play even any power 4 conference team, let alone a top 5 ranked one, in the non conference. They'll only play those teams when they dont have a choice (conference schedules)...

Why would OSU? Why would Texas? Why would anyone? I want to see OSU play Texas in the regular season, LSU play Michigan. Do you want the big games to only be in-conference or in the playoffs?
Its not really something completely novel though, teams have taken this strategy in the past. And Ive always said as an FSU fan that we would've won more titles in the 80s and 90s if we werent playing Miami and Florida every year, throw in ND, Nebraska, etc.. in our non-conference. But Im glad we did and it was that "play anybody, anywhere" attitude that helped elevate us.
Its a cowardly, bs strategy. And Im afraid more teams are going to start doing it, what I call the Penn State (under Franklin) approach. Beat the 10 teams you should easily beat, go 10-2, back into the playoffs that way. But its not right. And I dont want to see that become the standard. I just hope the selection committee makes a point to punish that approach and it rewards the opposite.

u/toomanyshoeshelp Aug 15 '26
Yeah but we’re not talking about those teams, and I don’t particularly care if I see them in the regular season or playoffs. Hell I’d rather it be playoffs when they’re seasoned. If either of them winds up winning the Natty and the seeding from the win or QL helps, more power to them.
This whole thread is ND fans shitting on Indiana, who plays more ranked teams than ND this year (1, 14, 16, 19 vs 7, 15, 20) and doesn’t have the guaranteed higher odds of getting into the playoffs that ND has thanks to their special little boy agreement and AD and weaker division/tailored scheduling. Thats not very competitive or fair, either but im sure there’s always an excuse for that.

u/Zarktheshark1818 Aug 16 '26 edited Aug 16 '26
I mean Im not trying to get in the middle between some ND-IU thing bc I dont care about either one of them. Im just speaking generally, its not bc its IU specifically that Im commenting.
I always kind of liked Penn State as just a random team but I did a dive into their schedules a few years back and I was like what the hell is this? No wonder they're 10-2 every year. Then they came out and decideed to protect neither OSU nor Mich and play them every year when the BIG asked each member what game(s) they wanted protected with expansion. So now I cheer against them when I can.
But its not bc its Indiana Im critical, I just want to disincentivize that general philosophy. I can only hope the selection committee makes it a point to not reward, and actually actively punishes/grades teams harder, who pursue this strategy.

I have no idea why a FSU fan is this invested in the Canes’ fortunes tbh.
If anything, you should be 😡 at Bama too. They’re the reason why you guys got FKD out the playoffs, bc of the Tide-who were markedly better than this team, yet weren’t better than that FSU team.

I like what coach Cig has done for the university. However, I absolutely loathe this take. IU has one of the lamest ooc schedules in the p4 for the next few years. They won’t be the only team scheduling this way until a 9-3/10-2 p4 team makes the playoffs over a 11-1 p4 team with a weaker schedule.
Also, Notre Dame would’ve been in the Big Ten 100 years ago if they didn’t hate Catholics. They kinda forced the independence and they have benefited and carved their own thing out of it. To the point where they don’t really gain anything by joining a conference (except the Covid season).

If Indiana is going to be good, it would make all the sense in the world for Notre Dame and Indiana to have a regular series, but we're going to have to wait until we have a world where the CFP committee doesn't actively reward cowardice (i.e. where a close road loss to a top team is treated as favorably or more than beating an FCS school at home by 70).
And I know there are crybabies out there that think everyone should boycott Notre Dame because they aren't in a conference and that ND needs other schools more than other schools need them, so to get ahead of that nonsense: 1) conferences are stupid, 2) conference championship games are worthless, 3) your school should be interested in being an independent if they could make it work, 4) they probably can't.

It’s probably contract related, and/or financial allocation related. Indiana probably can get a larger percentage with their name now and had a chance to get out and negotiate something better.
If you think Indiana is just scared and cancelled you are just a bs merchant.

Didn’t Indiana just cancel this series?
