Anyone else think

The responses in this thread are hilarious. We could not beat Iowa St. How we beating ND? Do y'all watch football? We'd beat Pedo St? No, we wouldn't. We would lose to ALL of the playoff teams with the exception of Indiana, and that would be a close game.

This would be our first game where it is a bad match-up for us on both sides of the ball. Who is our S making the tackle in one of the holes created by the power QB run with that pulling G and RB as lead blockers for Leonard? They would run for over 300 yards on us easy. A crazy high # of missed tackles. Cam's hero ball would not play out well against that secondary when we are behind and he is ignoring his check downs.

Would Xavier Lucas be allowed to suit up and play instead of Jaden Harris?

Seriously, though. Notre Lame lost at home to Northern Illinois. How soon we forget.

So yes, of course, Cam Ward and the Canes would have a shot at beating them. Not saying it would happen, but it definitely could.
 
Our defense would take us out of matchup with the top 4 teams.

Cam and offense would get theirs, but if we can’t hold onto a 21 point lead against Syracuse we ain’t beating those 4.

Best case scenario is that our offense keeps it entertaining and competitive.

But without substituting out the entire defense, no real clear path to winning.

Now, if we could use our offense and our defense from last year or next year….
 
In a pretend scenario where Crazy Eyes actually takes over our D - same exact players and no one taps out - then, yes, I could see us beating ND. If NIU can, then in that scenario, we could.

Unfortunately, there is no universe where we beat the *'s playing like they are right now. It's just too much.
