Notre Dame needs to play SEC teams instead of Big Ten Teams |
|
if they ever want to get back into the national title hunt. A brilliant observation by Mitch Albom this AM on the sports reporters. Boy that was Cold!! Brrr

6. Other teams have backed out of playing ND in the past |
|
Notre Dame traditionally has played a tough schedule. Their schedule is not the problem.

9. I agree with Albom's inference |
|
Beating Big Ten Teams has meant zip squat the last dozen years. There are no quality wins in the Big Ten for non-conference foes.

7. Notre Dame needs to play MAC teams instead of Big 10 teams... |
|
At least they would be competitive, within the MAC.
