While Big Ten execs were enjoying their little get-together in Chicago, Brian Kelly was in Cedar Rapids to address Notre Dame alums in Eastern Iowa. Kelly was asked again about the Fighting Irish becoming members of the Big Ten.
His message remains the same: Winning conference championships is nice, but Notre Dame wants to play for national championships, something it can accomplish being an independent.



What is he talking about? Winning the SEC Championship sure didn't hurt the chances of the last FOUR National Champions.
Notre Dame's arrogance has already made them irrelevant. In the soon-to-be era of four major conferences combining to form a plus-one National Championship format, Notre Dame's arrogance will leave them forever-more left completely out of the equation.
