Things went as horribly as they seemingly could Saturday when No. 8 Notre Dame fell at home to Marshall despite entering the game as a 20.5-point favorite. The loss puts the Irish at 0-2, eliminates any hopes of the College Football Playoff, and, in all likelihood, knocks them out of a New Year’s Six bowl game.

Some would say there is nothing left to play for this season. Although I think that’s a bit strong, there are certainly concerns for the present as well as the rest of the year. If the Irish were in a conference they’d still have a conference championship to play for, but since they’re independent they obviously don’t (something backers of remaining independent accept).
With that in mind, legendary Michigan wide receiver Braylon Edwards roasted Notre Dame football pretty hard in regards to the Big Ten after the Marshall upset.
Lol upon further review @NDFootball the @bigten rescinds it’s invitation for your football team to join the conference! We wish you well in all your future endeavors.!!! 🙏🏽💯🤣🤣🤣🤣

Not a lot to say here as Notre Dame has been the biggest disappointment of any team just two games into the 2022 college football season. I suppose it’s a good thing Michigan has never been upset by a Group of Five or Football Championship Subdivision team at home in September.
If anything, even Tyrone Willingham went 2-1 against Michigan in the three games Edwards played against the Irish?
