This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Like ND-OSU this year, that will hurt forever! by Irish2003
Even with my most blue & gold glasses on, we may have run out of gas against Louisville anyway & I don't think we had the offensive consistency to win the playoff, but man it would have been great to beat OSU regardless!
As for my Niners, I think the "you have to knockout the champ" adage holds across sports, and not putting them away when we had the chance to certainly cost us in the worst way. KC's defense was criminally underrated all year, especially as even with Mahomes & Kelce, their offense didn't have that pop it did with Tyrique, and IMO both Spagnuolo & Nagy (sorry Bears friends!) fit very well as coordinators even if it didn't work for them as HCs. Like ND, we're not too far off, but that last step is going to be a long one.
