Marcus Freeman - 1-0
Brian Kelly - 0-2 (not including 42-14 loss to Bama in national title game)

Freeman brought new life to a program that was stuck in the mud with grindin Brian. Grindin Brian took LSU and made them Texas Bowl regulars.

Brian Kelly would’ve made the playoff every year at Notre Dame. We acting like being independent is hard now?

Freeman seems like an honest and likable guy too. Kelly on the other hand…

Does 8&4 still qualify for a bowl these days?

fricking dumb. They beat shite Indiana in a 12 team playoff. They are going to get destroyed by a less than normal Georgia team next week. They won’t be able to score. They’re shite and that makes Indiana shittier. BK would have made the playoff every year at ND when he was there. He always finished in top 10. He just had some bad luck with the juggernauts he faced when he got into the NC game. Funny though, a SMU fan is talking shite and you haven’t even played your first playoff game yet.

You have to be in it to win it.

Yes. And from a team that’s won more than anyone, ever trust me when I say, SMU has zero chance of winning a NC. None. Never will and never can. That’s reality. I would recommend going to the games to experience it and enjoy it. What happened this year won’t happen often for you. You can convince yourself that some Billionaire will give some $$ to get some great players but they’ll never get enough to beat the big boys consistently because they’re not even the best in your own state and every school has billionaires. They’ll always be a SMU, Cincinnati or whoever they want to let in. The little guy as they call it. I actually personally know Craig James, being in development and construction over the last decade in Texas. And he agrees also. I hope you win because I don’t like Penn State. Good luck

So, because you "chose" to be a bama fan at some point in your life, you think that the TEAM'S accomplishments gives you the credibility and platform to speak "from a team that's won more than anyone, ever"?

Again, that is

Kelly lost to the number three and number two best teams of all time.

I thought you were pulling for SMU but you must be a bama fan . Why is it 2 of the worst teams in the league lately are acting like they have bragging rights over you guys? Auburn hasn’t had a winning season in the 20s.

Very wrong. Since the inception of a CFP ranking the Irish would've made the CFP 4 times in the 8 years Kelly was around with the ranking system. If you use the BCS rankings for the years Kelly was there before the CFP(2010-13), Notre Dame makes a 12 team playoff once(2012). So, no Kelly would not made the CFP every year at ND. In fact, he'd only have made it 5 times and missed 8.

I mean..I get what you are saying and fandom certainly does not make anyone smarter than other people....but I didn't see anywhere he was wrong, either.

Marcus Freeman = Lincoln Riley

Marcus Freeman doing a great job at maintaining the program built by Kelly much like Riley maintained the program built by Stoops.

Ummmm. Probably not. Georgia will certainly be favored but in no way will ND be destroyed. And they could possibly win this game. Georgia has found ways to win this year but they have not destroyed very many teams much less the good teams on their schedule.
Even a 2-10 State team play competitively in Athens losing by 10.

State was more talented than their record showed. When I say destroyed, I don’t mean 55-7. I just mean, a complete and utter control of a game, maybe like last night ND over Indiana. 24-3 or 35-10. I just don’t see Notre Dame consistently scoring on a Georgia’s defense.

Possibly. I look for a very close game. Possibly GA winning by 3-7 points. ND has a very good defense so I don’t see a lot of scoring. Could be a more old fashioned slug it out in the trenches type game. ND likes those types of games too.
Thus, they have a punchers chance in that type of a boxing match.
