Interesting @NDFootball 2026 Schedule Update!!
As of the current @AP poll, ND has 4 teams on its schedule ranked in the Top 25:
Miami (1), BYU (8), SMU (19), and Wisconsin (25).
Just in the top 10, that is the same number of ranked teams as:
@GeorgiaFootball
@AlabamaFTBL
Just in the top 10, that is MORE than:
@CanesFootball (1)
@OhioStateFB (3)
@IUHoosiers (2)
@Utah_Football (3)
@UCLAFootball (1)
@BYUfootball (2)
Only @UKFootball has more than the Irish (5).
Perhaps the talking heads at @ESPN or on @CollegeGameDay can stop with their season-long narrative that ND doesn’t play anyone. Zero facts to support that contention, just 100% bias designed to relegate the Irish to a “2 game season”…when it clearly is not!

Notre Dame has played 18 ranked opponents in the regular season since the start of 2022 (the Freeman era).
That's more than Georgia (17), Ohio State (15), Miami (10), Indiana (10), BYU (10), Texas Tech (14), etc. Comparable with Alabama (21), Texas (20), etc.

When the SEC flaunts their 10-2 OOC P4 record I want you to see who they beat besides OSU:
2-4 Ga tech
2-4 Kansas
3-4 Florida St
3-3 Az St
3-3 NC St
4-3 Louisville
4-2 Baylor
4-2 Clemson
4-2 Minn
They beat a bunch of bad teams, and want to be crowned the best because of it.

BYU's Justin Kirkland admitted to yelling "hut" before Notre Dame QB CJ Carr's costly spike attempt that resulted in a fumble on Saturday. usatoday.com/story/sports/nc…

With everything on the line, and all the replay we have, how can we get these things wrong?
Big 12 statement:
"Following the Big 12’s review of the final play of Saturday’s Notre Dame-BYU game, it was determined that time remained on the clock when the ball hit the ground and the play was incorrectly cleared by the replay officiating crew. The Conference will conduct a complete review of its end-of-game officiating process in advance of next week's games."

"Sorry, Notre Dame, you got screwed. Please join Western Michigan to accept your parting gifts.."

Mike Pereira on Fox just now about the 1 second in ND-BYU:
"I talked to the Big 12 center, they said replay did clear it, but it’s pretty obvious here there is a second left on the clock and there should’ve been another play for Notre Dame.”
Matt Malham retweeted
FOX rules analyst Mike Pereira told The Athletic that the ending of the BYU-Notre Dame game was “embarrassing for all officiating” and that Notre Dame should “get one more play.”
The Irish were at the center of two officiating controversies Saturday night: a potential missed defensive pass interference call and questions over whether one second should have remained on the clock after the final play.

CougConnect took down the video of BYU DL Justin Kirkland admitting to the foul at the end of the first half of the BYU-Notre Dame game.
Here’s the full video ⬇
BYU DL Justin Kirkland admitted he yelled “hut” at the end of the first half, when CJ Carr’s spike was ruled a fumble, which would have been a penalty on BYU.
Carr attempted to spike the ball to stop the clock, but officials ruled it a fumble recovered by BYU after review. Notre Dame center Ashton Craig argued the call, but to no avail. teapawt.net/CougConnect/status/211…

No dog in the fight, but PI doesn’t get any clearer than what the BYU defensive back did on the final play of that game to Notre Dame’s Jaden Greathouse. That’s a flag. If you don’t have the temerity to throw that flag there in Provo, Utah in that moment then you shouldn’t be on the field as an official.
Matt Malham retweeted
There was actually 1 second left in the ND-BYU game.
Just horrifically officiated all around.

Clear PASS INTERFERENCE on the final play— everybody saw it, Herbstreit saw it, the video shows it.
NOT TO MENTION ONE SECOND LEFT ON THE CLOCK!
Same exact bullshit as the missed holding call against Texas A&M last year. Notre Dame got HOSED AGAIN. These officials are a TOTAL DISASTER. The worst officiating I’ve ever seen in college football. BYU didn’t earn that win—the refs gave it to them. SHAMEFUL!!!
