What's more embarrassing? That Notre Dame hasn't won a bowl game since Jan. 1, 1994? Or, yet another predictably lopsided BCS bowl loss?

The school of Touchdown Jesus and Knute Rockne now has a more ignominious distinction: nine straight bowl losses, breaking a tie with South Carolina and West Virginia for the most in NCAA history. It is clear the Fighting Irish aren't among the nation's elite.

What do you think?

Should Notre Dame continue to be invited to BCS bowls, even if there are clearly better teams out there -- we're looking at you, Auburn and Wisconsin -- that would give opponents a better game?

Or, is a third lopsided loss in three BCS bowl games enough to keep Notre Dame from earning its spot in the marquee games? Are you as sick of seeing this annual debacle as many other college football fans are?
