Looks like I will be going against the grain, but cupcakes help you more

the way they are selecting teams. If Ohio State had played Mercer instead of Oklahoma they are in the playoff.

I know Kelly is not popular, but forget that and think about what he is saying. If you are a Traditional Brand Power with big TV ratings...you should schedule down in November. The SEC figured it out first and so have FSU and Clemson.

It's good for them and terrible for the game. (Ratings are down) I don't blame them as much as the CFP committee and how they are not using the criteria in front of them. Oddly Herbie who walked off the set this year, last year was the guy that said pick the best 4 "without" using the criteria. This year it burned him.

ND rethinking scheduling -- J-Dub 12/30/2017 8:31PM

The schedule doesn't get any better than this year -- Wolfman 12/31/2017 10:51AM

ND already has cupcakes on their schedule and typically Swofford is helping -- anotherdamnyankeehokie 12/31/2017 10:16AM

If you think its just a game for NOTRE DAME you dont get it -- Mercury 01/03/2018 11:21AM

BC is no big deal to ND. -- Atlee Hokie 01/04/2018 4:22PM

Correct about fan attitude towards BC -- TerryD 01/05/2018 08:43AM

Swarbrick wants regular games in Boston. -- HOO86 01/04/2018 4:56PM

That is one reason why I said to not pay attention to what Kelly says.... -- TerryD 01/05/2018 08:45AM

I'd love to play Syracuse in Giants stadium. -- Atlee Hokie 01/04/2018 6:13PM

I wish VT played ND in NYC, the Carrier Dome has not been good to VT. -- Stech 01/04/2018 5:35PM

Didn't see your post. Agree, Anywhere but the Dome. ** -- Atlee Hokie 01/04/2018 6:15PM

Dare I say it? "The Fake Noise of the Carrier Dome". :-) ** -- Stech 01/04/2018 6:28PM

IDK. ND's schedule is typically tough. This year was no different. -- Calamitous 01/01/2018 01:05AM

It’s not just cupcakes. He wants cupcakes the week before their big rival -- Femoyer Hokie 12/31/2017 1:58PM

Here is where his logic falls apart. -- Maroon Baboon 12/31/2017 10:24PM

That comparison is what he's complaining about. -- HOO86 01/01/2018 5:32PM

Cry me a river, Brian Kelly. ND chose that path. ** -- Atlee Hokie 01/01/2018 10:07PM

And FWIW, before their biggest loss (Miami), Miami played VT, ND played WF ** -- Maroon Baboon 01/01/2018 5:49PM

Agreed. It is just Kelly spouting off -- TerryD 01/01/2018 08:34AM

Just Kelly running his mouth. Doubt any changes by Swarbrick. ** -- TerryD 12/31/2017 09:41AM

The ACC Website is demonstrating wishful thinking. -- HOO86 01/01/2018 7:14PM

Geez. Does ND want to make the playoffs? or just Kelly? -- HOO86 12/30/2017 10:23PM

I'm waiting for our ND friends on this board to weigh in on this article. ** -- Atlee Hokie 12/30/2017 9:39PM

I normally do not talk this way. He is a "edit" -- goldendomer 12/30/2017 11:08PM

The ACC games haven't been the cupcakes they anticipated... -- Mr. Touchdown 12/30/2017 9:12PM

ND rarely plays Big Ten teams nowadays..... -- TerryD 12/31/2017 09:45AM

I can think of 1 big choice they can make -- hokeyhokie 12/30/2017 10:09PM

Who cares? Maybe it’s time to make the jump to the ACC? -- EDGEMAN 12/30/2017 9:09PM
