Every team to win a primetime game despite throwing 4+ interceptions and having fewer than 75 rushing yards: The #Bears tonight vs the #Buccaneers and the #Bears on Monday Night Football in 2006 against the Cardinals… #DaBears

Insane amount of copium from Miami over a play where the ball is already being bobbled before Notre Dame even swats at it.

If you want to sound dumb...argue that it was a horrible call by the refs against Elijah Lofton at the end of the Notre Dame vs Miami game. Even dumber? Post a screenshot of 2 feet in bounds with football in hands! If you want to sound smart ...say they got the call right but you hate the rules on what is a catch or not.

Miami: - Couldn't punch it in from the 3 in line - Played against at times almost our entire backup defense - Started drives at the 35 because our kicker thought row 12 of the stands is where you out kickoffs - Had "the best QB in the nation" - Best rush defense in the nation - Plays in a conference - Has Fletcher - ACC missing every OL hold on the field from Miami and the refs walking Miami down on TD 2 drives And they lost because they didn't have TONEY?! 😂😂😂😂😂😂 – at Goshen, IN

I try to tell myself this all the time, and especially today on November 2nd. When you are a passionate fan of a team, and you have it all, don’t take a second for granted. Soak in every moment to the fullest. Treat it like you might never have it again.

Before criticizing Notre Dame for playing Navy every year, understand the history. During WWII, ND was struggling financially and facing the possibility of closing its doors. The U.S. Navy stepped in, bringing thousands of trainees to campus and providing critical funding that helped keep the university alive. Notre Dame never forgot who stood by them when they needed it most. This game isn’t just a matchup. It’s a tradition rooted in loyalty, gratitude and a debt that will never be forgotten. ☘️
