Can someone explain why Notre Dame should be in the tournament?

Everyone makes this big deal about how they're a much different team with Bonzie Colson. He has now been back for 5 games and they are 3-2 with 2 wins against the worst team in a P5 conference (won by a mere 3 in one of them), came back from 20+ down to beat VT, and lost to Virginia and got spanked by Duke.

I think ND is a good team with Bonzie, but are they really that much better with him? This is still a team that lost to Ball St and Indiana WITH him. I think it is justifiable to have them as a first 4 out, maybe a play-in game. But ND fans need to stop with the notion that they are a top 15 team with him - they are not.

Ok who are you putting in ahead of them? We have to get to 68 teams, somebody that might not be that good has to make it.

Alabama, Oklahoma (although have played terrible lately), UGA if they win today, ASU.

Not that I don't think they should be in a play-in game or a 12 seed. But I don't understand the argument that they are a top 15 team with Bonzie.

ND won’t be in the tourney. I guarantee that.

Ball State and Indiana

What about them?

 

[Bert Higginbotha]

Notre Dame should not even be in the ACC. They are half ACC with no football.

They lost to them with Colson. I just dont see why that kees getting ignored. Not by you, but by all the media.

Idk. They are bad losses, the bubble is just so weak this year, but I feel like we say that every year.
