I've got the chills and the goosebumps. I'm so nervous but yet so excited.
This game is for my grandfather, who had Alzheimer's but still would cry during Rudy every time when Rudy was finally accepted and at the end. Without fail. It's for my uncle, my great-grandfather, my brother, and me, all of us who have attended the greatest university in the world at some point in time.
It's just epic.

It really is. The team hasn't even come out to play. _________________

Score here with a long drive and we get the ball at half! It's been embarassing thus far, but we're not out of it yet. _________________

Embarrassing performance by us. 'Bama is a great team, but we are playing nothing like we did in the regular season (moreso defensively). Way too many missed tackles and our O is struggling as I expected. Better luck next year, I think I am done with the game at this point.
Talk more later. _________________

Missed tackles, bad angles, missed coverages, and general sloppy play. Bama is a great team, but we should be doing better. _________________

It was a great run. We are at the biggest stage, which is hard to even imagine before the year. Not many teams get to this position. We might not be champions but the season isnt all for nothing.
Hope we can just keep recruits though. This game is tough. _________________

We are on the right track but we just don't have the athletes or the speed to compete with a team of this level. |

Agree, especially at the back with Motta. Hopefully our guys we are bringing in (hopefully they all stick first) can help that. _________________

| Horrible horrible effort by Notre Dame. From the coaching to the d, to the offense and special teams. We are relevant again but we are a year or two away. Honestly I just hope no one decommits at this point. |

Much respect to you guys on a great season. I expected it to be much closer TBH but am happy for the win. You guys have been classy leading up to and during the game thread. You guys are only going to get better with Kelly developing the talent you have. Keep your heads up. _________________

It wasn't the missed tackles, amigo. ND is just smaller, slower, and less athletic than Alabama. Nothing more, nothing less. ND and Michigan are very similarly built, and we were dominated in the exact same fashion because we can't compete with the size and speed. ND has Big 10 speed, where 'Bama has top tier SEC speed, and the difference was as evident as day is to night. _________________
