But Muslims are okay to pray in the London streets and block traffic

Sure it is. Now, what's your point exactly?

Pretty sure Mich requires their head coach to beat OSU

OSU hadn't beat Michigan since 2019 until this year. Just sayin.

Breyer had issued a temporary restraining order earlier this year seeking to block Trump's National Guard deployment from immediately taking effect, though the order was quickly stayed by the Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals.

Their gripe is actually with the ACC, which is hilarious and ironic given that Notre Dame refuses to join them.

---

If they did then the ACC would dictate who ND plays in the conference. however, as of now these two guys get to pick what five teams to play in the ACC.

Notre Dame's football schedule is crafted internally by their athletic department, led by the Athletic Director (currently Pete Bevacqua) and the Football Director of Football Operations, in coordination with their NBC broadcast partner, to arrange home games and select quality opponents

---

Out of the five ACC teams ND chose to play this year here they are: Miami, NC State, Boston College. Pitt znd Syracuse.

Not exactly a trying schdule there. All the pundits with ESPN were wrong. They all said after ND's two losses at the first of the season that if ND ran the table the rest of the season they would be in the playoffs. Oops.

Football doesn't make sense for a sport where 99% of a game isn't kicked with the foot.

True. Maybe chunkball would be more appropriate.

"National Media Reaction"

So the same media that has for the last several years been bloviating to pay college athletes for their time spent on athletics are now saying that coaches shouldn't be doing the same thing in trying to get what they can? Yeah, frick the media.
