Week 11 was a week of chalk around college football, but there's still lots to cover as the conference and playoff pictures continue to come into focus. Of course, we also talk a lot of Notre Dame crushing Florida Sate as we wonder if we can can put the "green jersey curse" to rest and...should we start talking more about comparisons to Clemson rather than Michigan? ...

The Irish are now #3 in the nation, controlling their own playoff destiny. With week 11 bringing interesting, yet not-quite-overly-epic matchups, the Notre Dame hosts hapless Florida State in the blistering cold on Senior Day. As we do every week, we use the most accurate preview method in all of college football, NCAA '14, to sim this home finale. Senior day. Snow. Green jerseys. Brandon Wimbush. What could possibly go wrong? ...
The end is near. Well, at least the home season for the Irish is. Week 11 is full of loads of interesting games that could shake up the playoff and conference championship picture.

With week 10 now in the books, the majority of the playoff picture is coming into focus. Unless you are in the Pac 12 or Big 12, in which case, things are still insane. Speaking of, anyone want to win the Pac 12 South? How about the ACC Coastal? Meanwhile, Notre Dame, even after a terrible Navy-hangover of a first half, dispatches Northwestern by seven more points than some other school up north while never trailing. It was a big week of football and there's lot to talk about. Come join ...

Yes, I'm aware Northwestern is in Evanston and Notre Dame is in South Bend, but like a ND band director, I'm going to shoehorn Chicago in here. There's a ton of news (hi, Maryland!) and playoff-picture worthy games to discuss. Oh, and of course, the most accurate preview method in all of sports: the NCAA sim between Notre Dame and Northwestern. ...

Shane dubbed this week "Shit the Bed Saturday" and if you were a top 25 team on the road, you likely did. Lots of upsets to discuss plus Notre Dame's blowout win over Navy. Went a little bit longer in this one talking about the future of the ND/Navy series as well as the upcoming initial college football playoff rankings. ...

The bye week is done and Notre Dame football is back and that means it's time for the most accurate prediction and preview method in sports today: the NCAA sim. Yes, folks, the sim is back as are Shane and I as we preview a week in college football that could get a little spooky. ...

The following is a guest post submitted by Fr. Sorin's Ramblers who can be followed on Twitter @golddomersdulac. “Someone once told me time is a flat circle. That everything we’ve ever done, or will do, will be done over and over again.” Matthew McConaughey’s True Detective character Rustin Cohle states as he sits in an interrogation room, between drags of his cigarette, beer cans littering the table. It’s a gritty scene, one that feels appropriately analogous for a season that sees an ...
