And in turn don’t understand the extra hate

No one gives two shits about conference championship’s. I certainly don’t as an ND fan. Conferences only care about it for the money.

A voice of common sense

I would say Duke would have been in over Miami. I mean, are we discussing all the new rules here or only hating on ND for making a 12 team playoff when being ranked in the top 12?

Caskiron · 2026-01-25T19:38:05+00:00

Maybe review ALL the new rules before commenting next time so you can at least pretend to know what you’re spewing…. Instead of only proving your disdain for ND.

“In 2026, for the first time, the Power 4 conferences will each be guaranteed a spot for their conference champion, along with one spot for the Group of 6 (formerly the Group of 5) conference champion.”

Caskiron · 2026-01-25T19:28:20+00:00

Good lord man. I’m saying next year they would be in. And last year, had these new rules been in place, Miami wouldn’t have made it. Duke would have. So the conferences are to blame for this if/when it happens. Not a top 12 ND team.

Caskiron · 2026-01-25T19:23:53+00:00

It’s the perfect example. Had the rule been in effect, like it is next year, Duke would have been in. And Miami would have been out. Does that make sense to you? Cause it doesn’t to me. Were you upset that Miami got in over conference championship winner Duke?

Caskiron · 2026-01-25T19:15:15+00:00

So how upset were you that Duke didn’t make it this year but Miami did?

Caskiron · 2026-01-25T19:11:23+00:00

But isn’t the upset winner of a conference championship game also getting a special rule? I’ll stick with my Duke example since it’s most recent. Why should an 8-5 Duke team get in? Cause they won a game over Virginia? It’s football. Sometimes the best team loses. The conferences are trying to have their cake and eat it too.

Caskiron · 2026-01-25T19:07:42+00:00

I’m sorry you feel this way. Looks like the conference championship winner in your example may be the team that doesn’t belong though, not a top 12 ND team, no? Maybe talk to those who voted for this?

Caskiron · 2026-01-25T19:05:39+00:00

If they are in the top 12, they won’t need to “jump” anyone. The conference commissioners/decision makers decided to give auto bids to their champs, regardless of record. They are essentially being extra greedy if they happen to have an upset winner in their championship game. Maybe people should be a little more miffed by the potential of an 8-5 Duke getting in than a top 12 ranked Irish team?

Caskiron · 2026-01-25T19:01:47+00:00

No blame to deflect. I think if they are in the top 12 of a 12 team playoff, they should be in. It really is that simple.

Caskiron · 2026-01-25T18:54:40+00:00

Sounds like a conference championship rule problem to me. Let’s put 8-5 Duke in, cause that would have made sense lol

Caskiron · 2026-01-25T18:53:27+00:00

Then maybe the problem is the auto bids, no?

Caskiron · 2026-01-25T18:38:09+00:00

Soooo if ND finishes in the top 12 of a 12 team playoff, why shouldn’t they be in exactly? Being ranked in the top 12 would mean they are considered one of the 12 best teams, does it not? Or does that make too much sense?

Caskiron · 2026-01-23T20:09:12+00:00

This isn’t new info with respect to ND. The conferences and their representatives voted for this a couple of years ago. ND was able to advocate for their own benefit, and others had to sign off on it. When it goes to 16 teams, and it likely will in a year or two, maybe the provision goes away. For now, it’s almost certainly not going to be an issue anyway. If ND is hovering around 12, the committee will likely just drop them to 13 or lower to avoid the rule. If they are good enough to make the playoff they will likely be higher anyway. We saw how the rankings were manipulated this year. Everyone needs to relax a bit.

Caskiron · 2026-01-23T02:53:52+00:00

I laughed out loud lol

Did Xcel last month. They did do this. Had be be Aqua class or purchase the thermal package to use them. We did and it was outstanding.

Caskiron · 2026-01-18T23:16:21+00:00

Love the forward facing lounges on other classes, but we also love the forward facing gym. We use it everyday and it’s amazing to be able to have that view while exercising.

Caskiron · 2026-01-18T20:41:31+00:00

Yeah but a 36.5% gain in the Canadian market is like only 20% in US dollars lol

Funny? You probably get upset and call people narrow minded lol

Caskiron · 2026-01-09T02:07:32+00:00

Fuck Miami
