I just feel like it is a justified drop of a star. But, regardless, most gamers will have zero trouble getting the star back year one, especially with Floyd going Randy Moss on people all day
Hopefully they stuck Floyd in the game though

Despite what anybody says, Notre Dame deserves a 6* prestige rating based on that definition of Prestige.

No other program in the country can say all these things about their program-
1: ND has the largest fan base in the nation, 2: ND continues to roll in top recruiting classes, 3: ND has the most national tittles & hisemen winners, 4: ND has thier own TV network, 5: ND have tons and tons and tons of tradition, 6: ND has never violated major ncaa rules, 7: ND has never played an FCS (aka D-1AA) team, 8: ND graduates over 95% of their players.

ND is in fact a very prestigious school.
I would argue that the very fact that so many people on here don't think they deserve to be a 6* expresses the fact that they shouldn't be. You are right about it being a matter of public perception, and the perception here appears to be that they aren't as prestigious as you tout them to be.

Thats becuse people and the public just dont like notre dame, its that simple. It's the fact that people are Jealous of what notre dame has/had, with the combination of the recent inconsistency of the program, added in with the 10% of ND fans that are delusional who brag about the past national tittles in any CFB argument and predict a 10-2 or better team year in and year out that sets ND up so well for haters. I get it, and if i wasnt a die hard ND fan i would probably be on the hate train too if i didn't completely understand the circumstances.

Just because ND has a nationwide legion of fans who probably couldn't even find South Bend on a map doesn't mean they're a 6 star prestige school. Lol at 2 bowl wins in the last 15 years.

I actually don't hate ND. I'm 21 so I really wasn't watching football in ND's hayday. They just haven't been good for a while now, it really isn't about hating them.

I believe the reason they went down this season is because last season they were holding out that ND would have the breakout year because they always seem so close to doing it. EA is kinda giving up on that break out year and is admitting that ND isn't a top dog school anymore. To be 6* you need to be in the NC talk at least every couple of years.

Yeah i didnt get the vibe you did hate them i was just saying in general. I would agree with that second statement as well, but as i have stated before, why did they finally decide to knock them down to a 5* when theyre actually getting better. Dont see the logic
 
# 190 TDenverFan @ 06/09/11 10:29 PM
I have no hate for N-Dame, but I feel a prestige drop is deserved.


If Boise State made it to only 2 bowls over the next 5 years, they would not stay a 5 star. Notre Dame wins 2 over 15 years, and some people act shocked that they drop a star. It's just one prestige star.
 
# 191 poopoop @ 06/09/11 10:31 PM
I do hate Notre Dame. I went to one of their rivals.

Let's be real here you guys have one of the most obnoxious, pretentious fan bases in the country. Magnified by the fact that most of you have never even been in Indiana, much less South Bend. What has ND done that makes them a 6 star school? Maybe it's time to hop in the time machine and play NCAA 1947 Played with pen and paper but at least ND deserves it's prestige rating in that one.

Bias aside, ND should not be a 6 star school. If they had 6 stars last year that was a mistake. Good to see it corrected. If/when they do something they'll get their star back.

lol i dont know how we would be considered obnoxious? For one I have been to South bend multiple times. and who cares if you havnt, fans can like whoever they want. u can still be a fan if you havnt been. Hell traveling to ND form California would be so damn expensive, I dont blame them. Theres multiple reasons why ND should be a 6* school and i can give a very valid argument why, but theres also a reason why they shouldn't. I'm not even bragging about passed wins so cool little comment there chump.

They are going to have one of the best Defenses in the nation and as long as the QB progresses (whichever one) they should be good.
I definitely agree that we're not going to be bad this year. I expect it to be Penn State, Michigan and Nebraska fighting it out for the Big 10 with Ohio State being a surprise team with all the controversy hanging around.

I just think an A is too generous considering IMO that quarterbacks are the second most important position on offense.

Honestly,

WTF is up with Penn State's ratings?


Seriously? 6 star prestige right now? A's across the board? Really?
 
# 195 kingkilla56 @ 06/09/11 10:52 PM
The ND fans in here are serious? Yall are mad that Notre Dame fell from 6 to 5 star prestige? How long can you guys ride the momentum from the movie Rudy? Jokes aside, ND isnt a 6 star school and hasent been for years point blank. You can keep your fans, your tradition, you graduation rates, and your school history, but the rest of the country sees your mediocrity from the past few decades. The last time ND had an Elite season was in 1993.

As a Penn State fanatic I agree. They should be five stars and probaby a B+ overall at best

This! The same offense that couldn't score a TD against Temple gets an A? wtf!?

And as an huge ND fan I could care less about losing a star. Just have to go out an earn the sixth one back this year!

Correction they did score a TD against Temple but they still played like crap lol

Really, wth? They need to give us greater control so we can rectify these kinds of head scratching decisions faster, along with making prestige editable.
