Agreed. That was an absolute demolition by Notre Dame over Purdue. That defense is as nasty as many thought it could be and they can only control how they perform & the outcome. Thus far, that unit has been outstanding in every way. Anybody trying to adjust goalposts is hating!

History is forged at Notre Dame.

Happy one-year anniversary.

[Matt Infante @MattInfante]

Happy anniversary, Dolphins fans!

It has now been a quarter century since the @MiamiDolphins won a single playoff game.

December 30, 2000.

The Dolphins have not won a playoff game in the 21st century. Since their last win, they are 0-5, losing by an average of 17 pts.

[Jon “JR” Rhoades @jrs_rankings]

To be clear, Alabama is still terrible. Oklahoma is just also terrible.

[State Rep. Dan Frankel @RepDanFrankel]

I welcome the federal move to reclassify cannabis from Schedule I to III. It’s a long-overdue, science-based step that helps patients and medical operators. But it doesn’t create a legal market, protect public health or address equity. The PA Senate must act on full legalization.

When Quinn Ewers starts for the Miami Dolphins on Sunday against the Bengals, he will become the franchise’s 27th different starting quarterback since Dan Marino retired.

Closing the book on Notre Dame's wild week, from processing the CFB snub, bowl game opt-out reactions, and what the Irish should do about it

[Pete Sampson @PeteSampson_]

Notre Dame President Rev. Bob Dowd puts out a statement supporting the football team after its decision to opt out of a bowl game.

[Sean Davis @seanmdav]

The playoff committee punished Ohio State more for losing to the only other undefeated team in the country by 3 than it did 3-loss Alabama for getting crushed by Georgia. Wild.

[Scott Seidenberg @ScottsOnAir]

Final CFB thoughts and then we move to NFL.

If you want to let Alabama in because the Conference Title Game was irrelevant,

Then BYU should have been in instead of Miami. They were ranked higher than them last week and Conference Title Game's are irrelevant right?

I've ben saying forever, you can't have it both way, the committee just said screw you, we want our cake and eat it too!

[CFB Kings @CFBKings]

Alabama’s last five FBS games:

Beat 4-8 South Carolina by 7
Beat 7-5 LSU by 11
Lost to Oklahoma at home
Beat 5-7 Auburn by 7
Lost to Georgia by 21

They haven’t beaten a current Top 25 team in 63 days.

[Stewart Mandel @slmandel]

There is a very similar analog to this situation.

In 2017, No. 2 Auburn lost 28-7 to Georgia in an SEC title game rematch.

It was Auburn's third loss.

They dropped five spots to No. 7.

Alabama at 11-1 and idle moved into the field.

[Mike BerardinoNDI @MikeBerardino]

And caused him to fire Sam Pittman the following day with a negotiated buyout pushing $9 million.

ND ruined Hunter Yurachek's last Sunday of September.

Today, Yurachek did the same for Notre Dame's entire month of December (and beyond).

[Nicole Auerbach @NicoleAuerbach]

AP poll has Notre Dame at 9, Miami at 10, Alabama at 11.

[Nicole Auerbach @NicoleAuerbach]

So, BYU was penalized for getting blown out in its conference championship game (dropped one spot). Which allowed Miami to move up and get compared directly to Notre Dame.

But Alabama was not penalized for getting blown out in its conference championship game.
