Let's go ND. Family friend is their (best?) linebacker. He is pretty damn good, not sure of his stats compared to others- #34 Drayk Bowen.

Kid is a stud. Dual scholarship football and baseball. Strong like bull and a hard worker. Makes rooting for the Irish pretty easy, not that I would ever root for Ohio State.

That’s awesome! Stud indeed.

What is the over under on ND coach Freeman going to the NFL? He seems like the perfect fit.

ESPN just reported the Bears want to interview him for HC….

Well shit, get it done kids. Between NIL and coaches leaving, this is your chance.

Heard on the radio today that Delta added 5 extra flights per day from Columbus to ATL in the days leading up to the National Championship Game here next week.

That’s a lot of imported Buckeyes. Some may say too many.

Some may say 1 is too many.

This. I was floored by how obnoxious they were at the Rose Bowl. Had my 5 and 9 year old with us and a dude still tried to goad me into a fight. They are the worst.

That’s why they are the fuckeyes. But if I lived in Ohio I’d probably be a miserable prick too.

Try working with them. Between them and Gator fans, I am shocked I get any business.

LOL. I think the "West Coast of the East Coast" is populated exclusively by tOSU and UF fans/alums.

[warthog]

Pretty much. Plenty of Michigan here too, so that was a fun day after.

To be honest, the OSU fans I know aren't obnoxious, they are just kinda inbred and weird. Coming from a 'Bama fan, that is saying a lot. I am sure there are some normal ones. I know a couple normal Gators too. They are out there.

Worst fans I have seen live were LSU when they were at 'Bama. Pissing on the dean's house, total d bags all around. Anything is civil compared to that.

They are more rough and toothless than they are tough and ruthless, if you know what I mean.

they also stick fingers in booties

Born and raised a Buckeye. My dad has been a season ticket holder for 50+ years. I've been to a lot of games, home and away. Nicest fanbase I ever interacted with at a game was Nebraska. Worst fans I experienced were at Penn State and Michigan. With that said I find there are drunk assholes at all games looking for a fight and that also don't give two shits if my kids are with me. I've heard LSU is the worst so don't think I'll be going there anytime soon.

[BmillsSkier]

Made an airport run today and the curbside zone outside of South Terminal at ATL was a sea of scarlet and grey; the Bucks have arrived.

I'm surrounded by ND alums/fans on a daily basis so maybe I'm just not noticing them as much, or they're not dressed in full facepaint just yet.

Anyone know the reasoning behind playing this game on a Monday night?!?

Seems the Season has been going on forever.

Aside from going up against the NFL Playoffs, no. I thought at first, oh it's MLK Day that makes sense, but I guess that's not it either. I was reminded that it was on a Monday last year as well.

It's like the Super Bowl being on a Sunday, why do that to everyone? Make these things on a Saturday and let people enjoy the weekend.

[The SnowShow]

So who’s winning this this? Luckeyes?

Sadly, I think so. ND winning is by no means impossible, but the Buckeyes are fucking ferocious right now in every area.

LET'S GO BUCKS!

Let's hope Ohio State wins by 3 TDs.

cause abc wants it to be. been like that for a long time.

same thing goes for the tournament championship. always on a monday night because cbs wants it to be.

just comes down to viewership and mondays are good nights for it.

college championship has always been on Monday for as long as I remember

Super Bowl should always be on Sunday. that said, if they move to an 18 game season with 2 bye weeks then Super Bowl Sunday will fall on presidents day weekend which could be rad

[Buzzworthy]

An extension of the weekend joy people reminisced about all day back at work and want more sports. Purely psychological.

definitely that, and also the fact that mondays rarely have worthwhile college hoops matchups.

[skiJ]

respectfully guys, the college game on Monday night is all about viewership and Money -
it does not collect with any of the kids weekend activities, and way more people can plop-down on Monday night to watch a game than are available to Watch a game over the weekend.
( same reason the nfl scheduled games for Christmas Day that set a new record for viewership. )
in the end, it's all about the Money.

[skiJ]

collect should be 'conflict with any kids' weekend activities'

Autocorrect is Not my friend.

Youngster, we used to get this shit done on Jan 1 regardless of the day, then a few days later for a while but Monday College championship only traditional in hoops.
