What, your copy of NCAA '14 looks different?

Will the streak of nightmares continue? Or will ND exorcise multiple demons? Come take some time out of your turkey hangover to come find out as we close out the sim season. ...
I'm not sure if there is a more frustrating combo for a Notre Dame fan than to have to deal with than consecutive weeks featuring Navy and Boston College.

Come join us in the most accurate prediction method in all of sports, the NCAA '14 sim. After all, it's senior day against BC, what could possibly go wrong?! ...

The Notre Dame NCAA Sim returns this week, bring Shane and a cold open back with it. With our virtual booth back to full strength, we turn to the most accurate of all prediction methods in sports to see just how much we need to worry about a ranked Navy team. After all, we've seen Notre Dame struggle against offenses deploying option concepts this season, so it's not like the number next to Navy's name is the only thing to worry about.

It's that time of the week once again. Time for the most accurate of all prediction and preview methods in sports today, the NCAA '14 Sim. For the second week in a row, Notre Dame finds themselves in the game that features the two highest ranked teams. After a rough road trip against Georgia (both real and Sim-wise), the Irish return home to face the #18 Virginia Cavaliers. Virginia may be for lovers, but the Sim has no love for anyone...especially when it goes on full drugs like it did ...
