Are you rooting for OSU or ND, and why?

Will never root for Duke in basketball...or Notre Dame in football...so OSU in this particular matchup.

Bro I just saw him 30 sec ago on the tv
He inherited one of the top programs in the country, underperformed based on the talent level and because he underperformed, they sunk a gazillion dollars into buying him the best team in the country and he still went 10-2. How great of a coach would he be if he were at Northwestern?

I didn’t see him on tv doing the telecast, he looks like he’s coaching, you know, for the championship

As he should be…when you have the best talent, you should be in the championship game. But you shouldn’t go 10-2 in the regular season.

If you judged Day the same as you judge Franklin, you wouldn’t think Day was a great coach, you’d want him fired.
If you remember, I’m not asking for Jim’s head unless he adds Iowa to the 2 guaranteed losses next season. Jim is a fine coach under this new playoff system and I am enjoying it. #smu #boise

Are you saying (out loud) day couldn’t do what Jim is doing at State? So apples to apples Jim>Coach Day?

We wouldn’t know because Day has never shown that he could. Franklin has proven twice that he can build or rebuild a program.

You could've coached OSU to 8-4 this season. Only half joking.
I don’t know about that but I’ve said tons of times this season watching STATE receivers “I woulda caught that with a beer in my strong hand”. And if I may, it’d be 9-3, no way I throw the ball Michigan game down in there

Can’t stand most ND wal mart fans. 2 guys I grew up with and were the most overrated athletes in school history (finally we had new coaches in basketball and baseball my senior year and those two guys ended up on the bench where they belonged) are ND fans. They talked so much stuff about PSU during the Sandusky stuff to me that I’d love to see them lose by 50
ND fans talking trash about Sandusky is ironic given they root for a team founded and ran by Catholic priests.

Never thought I'd say this but I want to see OSU bring another title to the B1G, because:

(a) It reinforces the B1G as the conference to beat
(b) ND should not be "rewarded" for getting to keep 100% of their winnings, unlike every other team that has the stones to play in a conference, and
(c) The ND fans in Miami (and on social media) are insufferable.
Tempering my my feelings a bit here. I hate ND (Athletics) with all of my being! It starts with the Lou Holtz "clause". Also, how can one school have an exclusive agreement with a major network for decades?

I was rooting for ND as painful as it was, Freeman far easier to root for then Day.

I get the sense that some people were just rooting for the college football season to be over, as the playoffs seemed too long.

I've hated them since the day I was born.
I always tell ND fans. In my day, many of us were ND fans. Then, we grew up. Catholic Elementary school and Sunday Highlights with Lindsay Nelson. AD putting 6 TD’s on em changed my view of them.
