Serious question. Why does everyone on here hate ND ? Everyone. I know several graduates from ND and I don't get it. I'm not against hate especially the sips it just seems the Irish are on the baylol and tehc level of hate or even more..
Yep. It's because Notre Dame constantly gets selected for post-season games they haven't earned.Ragnar Danneskjoldd said:
Because if they win 3 consecutive games they will make it into the playoff. I dont think about tech or baylor at all.
A&M has more Catholics than notre dameQuote:
I think real reason is more (I) that they are Catholic university,
They get less from the NBC deal and ACC combined than we do from the SEC.Quote:
they have national tv deal.
(I) has nothing to do with it to 98% of people that hate ND. The hate for ND mostly comes from the fact that they are what Texas aspires to be (chronically overrated, consistently break the sport of college football to satisfy their own greed, get credit for beating up on a terrible schedule).merch said:

I don't hate ND. Actually, football wise, I don't give them much thought. I think that is because they are not competing to win any conference on annual basis.
This is the main reason for why for me. Not being in a conference makes there schedule inherently easier that schools in a conference. I don't care that they think Stanford and Purdue and Navy are rivalry games they are not as difficult or as important as conference games that count towards conference standings. Then when they do well against an overrated schedule they are always over rewarded. A more deserving team gets screwed. notre dame gets blown out (it has happened every time for over 20 years) and like someone else said they say it's because of their higher academic standards. Which if true I would love for them to say before they accept the undeserving bowl bid.wangus12 said:

In many ways they're like the sips but on a national level.

I've never had any issues with Notre Dame. I think their uniforms are the best in football. I think their stadium is awesome. It's an elite academic school. It did piss me off when they started spewing hate toward A&M. I definitely thought that was rich coming from them but I also realize, in the world of social media, the words of a few can make it seem as though they speak for everyone. In the end, I don't root for them but I also don't root against them either(unless it impacts us).
