Last 41 games, Miami hasn’t lost a game by more than 7 points. Toney is not worth 3 points. (-4.5 to -7.5) Yet it’s hard to take Miami +7.5

The only other teams that have a huge fanbase, that travels well, and would be interested in travelling to Illinois are....who?

Many schools can provide that …who are more beatable
Replying to @Use2TalkIrish
Money, duh. When ND comes to town it is a huge windfall for the local community and the athletic program.

Why does it have to be Missouri?
Replying to @Use2TalkIrish
Nobody cares if we beat Mizzou. They are almost as irrelevant as us in football.

How did it go against Northern Illinois?

As an Illini fan..making the playoff is what I want. Better chance playing a team in our weight class. Odds are slim to what you are saying . 40 million dollar roster vs 15-18. Wins are valuable for a team like Illinois to make the playoff.

You beat notre dame, then your probably top 15. You lose to notre dame, well damn but it was notre dame so kinda expected it. Not a hard concept to grasp here

The pressure of the world on the Notre Dame kids to beat Miami. Tough week for rankings to come out. Wow

I was there for both
Replying to @Use2TalkIrish
Is this a serious question? You play the game because you don't know what the outcome will be. We've seen Notre Dame lose to Marshall and NIU in the past...

Apparently we can't have a normal conversation without you quote-tweeting every reply. Weird. But have a nice afternoon, Darin.

Come on Dave, we all know we own the SEC now. Lol.
Replying to @Use2TalkIrish
Mizzou is 35-12 the last four seasons, playing in the SEC. Notre Dame is 40-8. I don't know that Mizzou is an easier game. I do know it's a much duller one. Also, can we just have a normal convo in a thread without every reply being a quote tweet?

If someone can prove beating Notre Dame or even being competitive with Notre Dame change recruiting, I’d love to hear it. If you wanna be really good, you better get money like Indiana has to spend.
You can't become a heavyweight and you can't sell kids on being a heavyweight unless you play heavyweights. This is GREAT.

Dave, totally get your response. The Mizzou doesn’t have a $40 million roster.

In boxing terms, I would rather play someone more in our class. In a 24 team playoff, we still have a very small margin for error and playing an elite team like that diminishes that possibility. I’m still a fan who values wins.

Guilty…would rather play Mizzou
I can't believe there are Illini fans saying they'd rather play Mizzou (Mizzou?) than Notre Dame (Notre Dame!) in football. But to each his own, I suppose.

I have officially changed my opinion. Please give Chris Ash a two-year contract extension. We need all the help we can get.
Mark the calendars. 📅 The Illini head to South Bend in 2027 before hosting Notre Dame in 2028.
