Welcome back to Gen CFB. It's playoff week, Lucy. It is playoff week. We're going to a couple of playoff games this weekend. Fingers crossed for you in Texas, getting your credential. I'm heading to South Bend tomorrow. We've got a lot to talk about in a very short amount of time. So I want to start with this. Notre Dame, there are rumors they may be wearing alternate uniforms for their home playoff game on Friday night. And so I've seen two fan mock-ups of potential uniforms that Notre Dame could wear. Oh my God. On purpose? I think this one's a joke. It's like a Christmas sweater uniform, but it's really funny. But wait, the second one's even better. This is a... An Advent-themed Notre Dame uniform from Twitter. We'll credit whoever made that in post. But what are your thoughts? What are your thoughts on the Advent uniform for Notre Dame this Friday? Are we sure we want to credit who made these? Are we sure we want to do that? I love college football, and this is just one of the reasons why. Fans make the darndest things.
They get so excited for these games. They're like, what's the craziest uniform I can make? And they come up with that, an Advent uniform.
I am a firm believer, unless you're Oregon, if you're hosting a home playoff game or you're doing a home playoff game, let's not get fancy here. All right. Let's just let's not even bring in the question of like fun new uniforms unless you're Oregon because that's your whole bit. But like, no, no.
Just wear what you're supposed to wear. Wear the classics. You know what? You sound like a Notre Dame fan because Notre Dame fans, they love tradition. They love to stick to the classic blues. They don't like the alternate uniforms. If Notre Dame wears an alternate uniform and they lose to Indiana on Friday night, every single fan will blame the uniforms. And if that's the case, if Notre Dame does in fact lose to Indiana, I'm just going to throw this out there. I don't think it's the uniform's fault. I think that this game... I know it's a cliche. It's going to be one on the line of scrimmage. And I think Notre Dame's defense is going to have to put Curtis Rourke on his back like Ohio State did if they want to beat Indiana.
And that's the matchup that I'm going to be watching on Friday night. And I think it probably is going to be a pretty close game.
Only game Friday night, so I will be watching that matchup as well. I look at this game specifically if Indiana can control the pace of play, which they've been able to do in every game so far with the exception of Ohio State, then I think it's Indiana's game to lose just because they are so efficient. efficient in what they are doing and they can move the ball so quickly that if Indiana can control the clock if Indiana can do what they want to do I think they're going to win this game but I just I don't necessarily see that happening I think Notre Dame is so talented that I think there's just going to be mismatches there so I think Notre Dame wins but I love just having like how lucky are we to have a like sneaky in-state game in the first round of playoff like
It's awesome. Who would have thought we were here? Not me.
Not me. I mean, this is Indiana and Notre Dame as like fan bases. Everyone from Notre Dame has Indiana family members. Everyone from Indiana knows Notre Dame family members or has Notre Dame. Some of them, there's an Indiana campus in South Bend. Like some of them went to both schools. Like these are both schools where everyone's kind of, in my opinion...
