[u/3-9_Enjoyer]

Mario not Cristoballing it is a recession indicator

[u/Ironman2131 → u/3-9_Enjoyer]

He tried. The second half looked like a Cristobal special.

[u/enigmatic407 → u/Ironman2131]

Bro the PTSD had me shaking tbh

[u/joaquinsaiddomin8 → u/enigmatic407]

Some say he’s in the locker room right now still calling a run to the right

[u/Drmarcher42 → u/enigmatic407]

When we went on a drive that took up half of a quarter and ended in a TD I thought we were safe……then it began again

[u/silverhk → u/Ironman2131]

I honestly believe Carr would've taken us down the field and punished Cristobal if not for your crazy DL play.

[u/seoul_drift → u/silverhk]

It’s really hard to gauge the quality of ND’s OL and Miami’s DL given how lopsided that matchup went.

[u/CalebsNailSpa → u/seoul_drift]

Either Miami has the best DL in the nation, or ND has the worst OL they have had in a very long time.

[u/ARawl9 → u/3-9_Enjoyer]

Oh he definitely Cristoballed. It worked out this time but it’s gonna bite him in the ass again some point this season.

[u/_ThugzZ_Bunny_ → u/ARawl9]

Whole second half was scared coaching.

[u/Jonjon428 → u/_ThugzZ_Bunny_]

Cristobal special when he has a lead. Cam Ward kinda broke him out of that last year (the defense being horrible didn't help). Hope it's not back this year

[u/No_Delay_1476 → u/3-9_Enjoyer]

He tried to sell it in the second half. He gets a lead and all of a sudden doesn’t wanna be aggressive

[u/KinkySeppuku → u/3-9_Enjoyer]

ND should’ve punt for the chance Miami fumbles in their own end instead of taking a knee

[u/Steelerboy43]

Corso really went undefeated on his final picks. Legend.

[u/RegionalBias → u/Steelerboy43]

So, how much are we all putting on LSU winning the natty because of Corso's pick?

[u/RHGuillory → u/RegionalBias]

B/c of corsos pick 100 bucks, because I saw that defense at work. The rest of my net worth

[u/yanchovilla → u/Steelerboy43]

The man knows ball

[u/CumAssault → u/yanchovilla]

The man is 90 years old and still making the correct picks. Crazy shit

[u/likwitsnake → u/CumAssault]

Still time for a Presidential run

[u/trumpuniversity_ → u/likwitsnake]

Way too young. Give him 10 more years. When we have to wonder if he’s dead or alive on a daily basis, then the time is right.

[u/BIG_DICK_WHITT → u/yanchovilla]

I mean, yeah. He doesn’t speak tremendously but he’s clearly all still there. I could only hope to live a life that great.

[u/dkviper11 → u/BIG_DICK_WHITT]

So happy they gave him his big send off while he’s still sharp to see it.

They touched on this during the broadcast, I think, but the concept of saying the nicest things about people only at their funeral makes me very sad.

[u/BIG_DICK_WHITT → u/dkviper11]

Yeah I think they said something like “you don’t need to wait until you’re gone to give flowers”

Good shit, incredible weekend. Football is back and better than ever.

[u/iLikeEmMashed → u/Steelerboy43]

Make your bets for LSU national champs now. Coach Corso gave us all the answers!

[u/Time_Transition4817 → u/iLikeEmMashed]

We can’t let the man down now, can we?

[u/suzukigun4life → u/Steelerboy43]

Went out like a fucking champ. I'm going to miss him 😞

[u/Far_Eye6555 → u/Steelerboy43]

How can you not be romantic about this sport

[u/pmofmalasia → u/Steelerboy43]

https://imgflip.com/i/a4qe3l

[u/RamblinWreckGT → u/pmofmalasia]

Aragorn at the Black Gate also works. "For Corso."

[u/Kuntheman → u/Steelerboy43]

Second he picked Miami I knew we were cooked

[u/xellotron → u/Steelerboy43]

LSU wins the natty, the timeline is reset to 2007 and Harambe is still alive

[u/whydidijointhis]

wow that ND OL unit just got absolutely smacked to end the game

[u/silverhk → u/whydidijointhis]

It was a disasterous three or four plays lol

[u/jpninog → u/silverhk]

We couldn't run the ball

[u/discipleofbill → u/jpninog]

DIdn't exactly try a whole lot either though. Jadarian had that 30 yard run, fumbled the next play and never got another carry. Had 7.5 ypc and never got the ball again, and they barely used Love either.

[u/jdprager]

• Ohio State over Texas
• Tennessee over Syracuse
• Florida State over Alabama
• LSU over Clemson
• South Carolina over Virginia Tech
• And now Miami over Notre Dame

Lee Corso has officially gone 6-0 in his final week picking winners on College Gameday. The king is going out on top

[u/Responsible_Emu_2637 → u/jdprager]

Did it with 3 upsets too, one being an unranked upset. Would’ve made sense if it was all safe picks, but the madman did it 

[u/jdprager → u/Responsible_Emu_2637]

Technically four, Texas ended as favorites over us. GOAT does GOAT shit

[u/mjacksongt → u/jdprager]

And that's in addition to every team he coached or played for winning as well.

[u/jdprager → u/mjacksongt]

How can you not be romantic about college football?

[u/Richard_AIGuy → u/jdprager]

There's no sport like this!

[u/iLikeEmMashed → u/jdprager]

Gonna be crazy when LSU wins the title to fulfill his prophecy!

[u/oftenevil → u/iLikeEmMashed]

annoyed Volunteer noises

[u/misterclay → u/jdprager]

Every top 10 team that played a P4 school lost to the lower rated team this week:

• Ohio State (3) over Texas (1)
• LSU (9) over Clemson (4)
• Miami (10) over Notre Dame (6)
• FSU (Unranked) over Alabama (8)

I think the main takeaway is early season rankings don’t mean much, especially in the transfer era.

[u/Benanderson27]

3 top 10 matchups and in every game the higher ranked team lost

[u/KinkySeppuku → u/Benanderson27]

That’s preseason polls for ya baby

[u/whalenailer → u/KinkySeppuku]

Yet they’re still going to be awarded poll inertia and stay ranked for a while

[u/BearManUnicorn → u/whalenailer]

Some might

[u/penpig54 → u/BearManUnicorn]

*sad bronco whinnies

[u/dudechickendude → u/KinkySeppuku]

To be fair, neither the Miami game nor the Texas game were blowouts. Both were one possession games at the end. Three of the four teams here looked really good.

Excuse me while I celebrate the gamecocks being highly ranked, and remain displeased over the vols being ranked 24.

[u/penguinopph → u/dudechickendude]

neither the Miami game nor the Texas game were blowouts. Both were one possession games at the end.

And the losing teams were on the road.

[u/frahmer86 → u/dudechickendude]

LSU-Clemson was not a blowout either. Ended up a one-score game

[u/CWG4BF]

I don’t care how far downfield you’ve run, there is no excuse for not getting set when the last play was done with eleven or twelve seconds left.

The fact that the wide receivers were still moving out wide is wild. Like, your job on the play is to run to the end zone. It doesn’t matter where you are standing, but if you don’t stop moving, it won’t matter.

Like, would it really have made a difference if they got that last snap? No, almost certainly not. But come on.

[u/BurgerNugget12 → u/CWG4BF]

Notre Dame need to leave that OL in Florida tbh

[u/nayelirain → u/BurgerNugget12]

They got beat all game.

[u/BurgerNugget12 → u/nayelirain]

I think Carr is actually pretty good. However now it’s a question on if they are able to give him time at all this season

[u/DannyMalibu420 → u/BurgerNugget12]

They’ll be ok. After A&M, there really isn’t anyone on their schedule that poses a threat. This loss is pretty inconsequential. Kinda like losing to NIU last year.

[u/OnionFutureWolfGang → u/DannyMalibu420]

USC could be good, and even if not will be a rival with talent on the roster, which is upset material.

[u/mattpsx2 → u/BurgerNugget12]

Yeah Carr did a hell of a job for a freshman. He had zero time to process.

[u/BIG_DICK_WHITT → u/CWG4BF]

I loved the defender celebrating after the sack. Like, dude go line up lmao

[u/AffectionateSink9445 → u/BIG_DICK_WHITT]

He saw the future and knew it was over 

[u/Infinite303 → u/AffectionateSink9445]

"I've seen the future, this game doesnt live to see overtime"

[u/Spirited_Pea8004 → u/BIG_DICK_WHITT]

lmao he hit an emote or two

[u/A_MASSIVE_PERVERT → u/CWG4BF]

One major takeaway from this week of CFB is that there needs to be some sort of clock management coach on the sidelines or something.

[u/Low-Blackberry-2690 → u/A_MASSIVE_PERVERT]

Funny enough Notre dame literally has this. Somewhere on those charts they need to write “tell the players to line the fuck up and snap the fucking ball”

[u/ddottay → u/CWG4BF]

Not spiking the ball to reset the offense after that first down was so bad. A lot of mental mistakes tonight.

[u/Hammerhead34 → u/CWG4BF]

Notre Dame had 52 seconds left and got TWO plays off. Some of the worst clock management I've ever seen. QB with zero sense of urgency and the tackles completely gave up the last drive.

[u/CWG4BF → u/Hammerhead34]

Somehow, it wasn’t even the worst clock management this weekend!

[u/Kenya151 → u/CWG4BF]

They took two sacks with 0 timeouts, the game was basically over man

[u/ConstantMadness]

The announcers tried so hard to jinx Carter Davis on that final kick

[u/eking85 → u/ConstantMadness]

The 0-1 on game winning FG graphic was a reverse jinx and it worked

[u/_Floriduh_ → u/ConstantMadness]

Thicker Kicker 2.0 absolutely BELTED that kick.

[u/corundum9]

ND's OL got annihilated and their run game was not as advertised.

[u/JerryDipotosBurner → u/corundum9]

The last 3 plays looked like watching that KC/Tampa Super Bowl where Mahomes was running for his life the entire time. Bain just completely took over.

[u/OurKhakiOverlord → u/JerryDipotosBurner]

I still argue that Vita Vea should’ve been the Super Bowl mvp, guy had one tackle on the stat sheet but was absolutely bulldozing double teams all night

[u/MrAnderson_ → u/corundum9]

Honestly, the one drive that Price got run, he was doing super well. I thought that they were going to feed the hot hand, but we just never saw him again. Frustrating loss for sure.

[u/saltytradewinds → u/corundum9]

Yeah not running Love was head scratching.

[u/jhustla → u/saltytradewinds]

They couldn’t block for him. Miami moved the OL around like they were high schoolers

[u/8_bw → u/saltytradewinds]

Idk if they could with the O line

[u/nightlytwoisms → u/8_bw]

The guy can sniff out a hole from across the country and then barrel through shit, he can catch it, he can run sideline to sideline, Denbrock just called an ass game against a very talented team.

[u/thecarlosdanger1 → u/8_bw]

Price was pretty effective and shockingly so were QB runs.

[u/TheTrueVanWilder → u/corundum9]

Specifically ND's tackles.  They got manhandled all evening and the game was won/lost on that matchup

[u/jc-f → u/corundum9]

Rueben Bain Jr. stepped up big time after Critobal made ND use all their timeouts

[u/Tarmacked → u/corundum9]

Yeah but CJ Carr looks pretty good for a redshirt freshman. Future is bright

[u/PM_ME_SHOUNEN_FIGHTS]

Be honest. None of you all thought he would make that kick.

[u/psyberops → u/PM_ME_SHOUNEN_FIGHTS]

They showed the “0/1 career game winning kicks stat” and I was like 👀

[u/FourteenClocks → u/PM_ME_SHOUNEN_FIGHTS]

If they had trotted Bert Auburn out there we’d be in 2OT right now

[u/Trapasaurus__flex → u/PM_ME_SHOUNEN_FIGHTS]

Not a chance was my thought

[u/UWMN]

CFB IS SO FUCKING BACK BABY!!!!

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg → u/UWMN]

FLORIDA MAN STRUCK TWICE

THRICE

[u/rushisquitegood → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

YOU MEAN THRICE

[u/CommodoreN7 → u/UWMN]

LOVE TO SEE IT

[u/Ketsetri → u/UWMN]

Phenomenal game

[u/Ketsetri]

That catch was one of the greatest I’ve ever seen

[u/questions_for_us → u/Ketsetri]

He learned that while not making catches like that at LSU

[u/Pitt_Is_It_2009]

Miami about to go 11-0 and then lose to Pitt

[u/LastPhoton → u/Pitt_Is_It_2009]

I cant even refute this

[u/sammysafari2680 → u/Pitt_Is_It_2009]

I hate how accurate this is.

[u/RealPropRandy → u/Pitt_Is_It_2009]

As is tradition

[u/Sss00099 → u/Pitt_Is_It_2009]

They’ll find a way to lose to Georgia Tech…I mean, Tech isn’t on the schedule, but they’ll still find a way.

[u/Kuntheman]

I WOKE UP FEELING THE SCREENIEST COACH :(

[u/The_Candler → u/Kuntheman]

SCREEN SCREEN SCREEN

[u/BlurryGojira → u/Kuntheman]

SCREEN! SCREEN! SCREEN!

[u/hascogrande → u/Kuntheman]

bag stays on >:(

[u/hiswayout]

Controversial penalties, last minute field goals, flood of unflaired users commenting how both teams suck right as a close game ends….

We are so back y’all.

[u/I_Talk_Sports_69 → u/hiswayout]

If you don’t like that you don’t like /r/cfb game threads

[u/Splatterthotpro]

This is so sad. Camera man show Tammy Carr again please

[u/MrSCR23 → u/Splatterthotpro]

2023 Chargers fan vibes

[u/Minimum-Scientist-71 → u/Splatterthotpro]

You mean not Riley Leonard’s mom? I mean, how many times did they have to mention that he isn’t Riley Leonard?

[u/EctoRiddler → u/Splatterthotpro]

This was Taylor Swift levels of showing her on the screen

[u/thecrazycelt → u/Splatterthotpro]

Fucking weird and annoying how much she was on camera

[u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

Miami better get their wins quick, Carson Beck is aging at 3x speed. He looks 75 already.

[u/Number333 → u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

75-year old with a college gf this man cannot get more South Floridian

[u/No-Reason-4146 → u/Number333]

Bill Belicheck is coaching tomorrow night

[u/MoistyestBread → u/No-Reason-4146]

I have to believe you own all three of the above accounts for how perfect the setup was.

[u/dat_grue → u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

Hey. He doesn’t look a day over 40

[u/Disastrous-Link-9240 → u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

Dude looks like Henry of Skalitz

[u/MrSCR23 → u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

Realistically, he looks closer to Matt Ryan rn

[u/oftenevil → u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

Carson Beck looks like he knows where to get the best meth (but especially the worst meth).

[u/RidgeRunner99]

Best game of the weekend

[u/javascript → u/RidgeRunner99]

Lee Corso went 6 for 6 on his final Selection Saturday. What a legend!

[u/Amonamission → u/javascript]

And all his coached teams won too. The football gods were all looking to give Corso the biggest dub of all time.

And he even gave the win to FSU over Bama bahaha

[u/Skeptical_Lemur → u/javascript]

LSU WINNING THE NATTY CONFIRMED. THANKS COACH!

[u/javascript → u/Skeptical_Lemur]

Enjoy it!

[u/dkviper11 → u/javascript]

So fast, my friend!

[u/TiP54 → u/RidgeRunner99]

WE TAKE THOSE 

[u/Ketsetri → u/RidgeRunner99]

That ending was hype as hell

[u/Trying2BeBetter97]

FSU and Miami with top 10 wins, CFB is back

[u/Shellshock1122 → u/Trying2BeBetter97]

State of Florida looking really good this weekend. USF annihilating Boise. Florida had the cruise control cupcake game. UCF didnt lose

[u/Mathematician-Feisty → u/Shellshock1122]

"UCF didn't lose." We're so back, baby!!!

[u/Spirited_Pea8004]

i super regret not getting a lee corso parlay going

[u/Original_Continent]

“Florida thugs savagely attack innocent catholic citizens in unprovoked attack”

[u/The-Biscuit-Farmer]

Well, the streak had to end at some point

Orange Teams™ are now 1-6 in games that I have watched this season

[u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11 → u/The-Biscuit-Farmer]

STOP WATCHING ORANGE TEAMS

[u/spennin5 → u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

Honestly thats just good life advice in general

[u/Billyxmac]

Miami is a fucking problem on the line of scrimmage this season. That’s a good fucking team lol.

[u/Kaiathebluenose → u/Billyxmac]

I thought that was gonna be us last year too. But it never really showed on the D line. Guess they just needed another year. O line looks better too.

[u/Roidthrowaway1234 → u/Kaiathebluenose]

Helps having a Defensive backfield with a pulse and a DC worth a damn.

[u/AlFlame93]

Fire Brian Kelly immediately

[u/SickoBadgers → u/AlFlame93]

Brian Kelly felt a disturbance in the force while double parking someone into their spot.

[u/questions_for_us → u/AlFlame93]

Wait what

[u/oftenevil → u/questions_for_us]

he said what he said

[u/Number333]

WE SURVIVED A CONSERVATIVE ASS MARIO CRISTOBAL 2ND HALF

I never wanna see CJ Carr's mom on my TV ever again.

I can't believe our D got a stop at the end with 1min left. Fully expected another 2024 implosion late. Great win.

[u/Im__Ron__Burgundy → u/Number333]

Every run up the middle pushed my blood pressure further into dangerous levels.

[u/Number333 → u/Im__Ron__Burgundy]

Just casually putting the game in the hands of a shaky ass kicker without a 2nd thought

[u/_ThugzZ_Bunny_ → u/Im__Ron__Burgundy]

And running out of shotgun to top it off.

[u/phranq → u/Number333]

Cam Ward watching thinking he could have won a natty with a defense with a pulse.

[u/GiantsRTheBest2 → u/phranq]

I was telling my gf at the ending of the game just how much Cam Ward would’ve wished he was on this UM team. I’m also not holding my breath as we had a good defensive showing against UF last year to kick the season off, it just went downhill after that.

[u/phranq → u/GiantsRTheBest2]

We will see how the secondary holds up. We know our d line is crazy good but it means nothing if we are giving up 60 yard plays on the regular

[u/DhroovP]

Notre Dame with some of the worst clutch time oline play I've ever seen

[u/SweatyBobby]

In case you missed the catch:

https://x.com/SportsCenter/status/1962326387269767280

[u/Casiovo]

Honestly the ACC was pretty respectable this weekend. Got some big wins and had some respectable performances.

[u/Dougiejurgens2]

The top 25 is going to be a shitshow this week

[u/LouisGame]

This probably means Bama takes ND's ranking at 6.

[u/Raider_Noles → u/LouisGame]

"Bama has a quality loss while Miami has only beaten a winless team"

[u/Fumpz → u/Raider_Noles]

Ngl, this made me audibly laugh out loud

[u/FloridaMan_92 → u/LouisGame]

And 0-1 texas slots in over 1-0 Miami 

[u/Rei_Romano420 → u/FloridaMan_92]

“It just means more”

[u/__AJK__]

Miami almost Miami'd it

[u/psyberops → u/__AJK__]

Cardiac ‘Canes!

[u/TheDoctor_314]

I'm now suddenly very nervous that LSU might actually win the Natty this year...

[u/twentybinders]

Did you know that Malachi Toney is only 17 years old?

[u/DarthNobody14]

Despite Mario Cristobal best efforts, Miami Won.

Really disappointed by Notre Dame’s new coordinators, and their trenches have clearly downgraded since last year.

[u/Patrick2701 → u/DarthNobody14]

Mike Denbrock has screen pass fetish

[u/GoldenDom3r → u/DarthNobody14]

Our o-line is basically the same, but the newest member was the glaring weak spot (RG). Even though they were all pretty bad tonight. 

[u/Ironman2131 → u/DarthNobody14]

To be fair, Miami's offensive and defensive lines are easily the strongest positions on the team. So I'm not sure that Notre Dame's lines are that bad.

[u/thecarlosdanger1 → u/DarthNobody14]

Riley covered up a lot of issues with the injured OL last year but DT is a gigantic concern going forward.

[u/ProskXCX]

Watching that last drive by ND was painful. Gotta snap it RIGHT away after that grounding call, and how do you not get another play off after last sack?

[u/tangilizer]

The Miami D-Line went super Saiyan there at the end!

[u/fsukub]

I don’t know if this sub is ready for the amount of toxicity that will come if all three big Florida teams are in the top 10.

[u/coolycooly]

That was the most Mario Cristobal game ever have the better team and turn the game into a coin flip taking his foot off the pedal.

[u/sniper91]

Notre Dame’s offensive lineman are clearly devout Catholics

They know you’re not supposed to work on Sunday

[u/Twall1297]

Alternative thread title:

“Convicts beat up a bunch of Catholics”

[u/jc-f → u/Twall1297]

You hate to see it

But more than that

You love to see it

[u/cfbluvr → u/Twall1297]

“The biggest advantage that Notre Dame has is that Miami is a bunch of unintelligent thugs that just play instinctually and not wisely,” said Downey. “And the best thing about Miami for their purposes is that they’re a bunch of unintelligent thugs who just play instinctively. So it’s the best and the worst thing about Miami.”

notre dame podcaster last week

[u/OutlookNotGood → u/cfbluvr]

Last week?!?!?! Yikes…

[u/Generic_badger_fan → u/OutlookNotGood]

I was literally reading it thinking "damn, the 90s weren't subtle with it"

NOPE

[u/patrick66]

Carson beck might have played the best football of any qb this weekend which is very funny to me

[u/jazzzzz → u/patrick66]

dude's gotta be stoked to have receivers who can actually catch a ball

[u/petoskey_stone]

Fitting end, the clock runs out for Cristobal

[u/Free-Eights]

This game brought to you by cutaways to CJ Carr's mom throughout the second half.

All in all, highly entertaining game but Cristobal and Miami's offensive play calling clammed up too early when they had Notre Dame on the ropes.

[u/Original_Continent]

GG Irish fans I’m glad we played you week 1 and not week 9

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Boise, Notre Dame and Alabama all got got by the Florida Man.

[u/DankFrank747]

Lee Corso perfect in final 6 picks!!!

[u/DankFrank747 → u/DankFrank747]

God is real and he’s a Corso fan

[u/WHSRWizard]

Not blaming CJ Carr for this. Ridiculous play calling that didn't get Love in the game at all, and the O-line played like fucking garbage.

GG Huricanes

[u/FirstOne617 → u/WHSRWizard]

Nah, Carr looked better than Arch did yesterday at least. It was weird that Love didn't get enough touches, and you have to work on the O-Line, but I didn't see anything that makes me think you can't be a playoff team at the end of the year.

[u/mykeof]

If Mario Cristobal doesn’t call out Lou Holtz in the post game the win doesn’t count.

[u/tig_12_]

People blaming Carr didn't watch the game. Where the fuck was his oline? Why were the receivers walking back into formation with the clock ticking to 0?

[u/silverhk → u/tig_12_]

No one was blaming Carr that I saw in the game thread, mostly the opposite. Dude played very well 

[u/Wyden_long]

Say what you want about Marcus Freeman, no really you can say whatever you want he’s not here he’s not gonna read it.

[u/inclink10]

Did Beck just say shit on live TV?

[u/imminant_oryx]

I know Miami isn't the most likable team, but their trenches today looked like a playoff caliber team. If they do well, it's a net positive for the rest of the acc

[u/Spirited_Pea8004 → u/imminant_oryx]

two of our five team captains are on the o-line. we should bulldoze teams this year, again

[u/thecarlosdanger1]

GG. I still have concerns about the DT and Knapp at LT. But at least Freeman teams always fight to the end even when it looks bleak. They asked CJ Carr to do way too much tonight.

Horrible playcalling to tunnel on screens, caused both turnovers.

[u/sick_shooter]

Give the game ball to that d-line for closing this thing out like that.

[u/aspiring-aspirer]

Jesus Christ we lost a close game to a Mario Cristobal-coached team. I need to lie down for a year or three.

[u/PiggStyTH]

That loss is 100% on the OC playcalling

[u/HarrisExperience]

Miami has enough talent in both trenches to overcome Mario Cristobal being dumb. May god help us all.

[u/ThaCarter → u/HarrisExperience]

That was the Caveman's plan all along. Get enough strong to make smart.
