So you think Miami and ND should get in over bama Vandy and Texas???? Really??? ND should be the easiest decision of the bunch. They beat NOBODY but USC. Easiest call. The difficult choice imo should be between bama Vandy Texas and Miami.

Try playing in a conference and maybe you could have played a good team today and proven you aren't a product of your schedule.

Alabama has already proven itself to be a top10 team.

I really like the play in line of thinking.

If you are going to penalize teams for playing in their conference championships, the teams sitting need skin in the game. Otherwise you’re basically starting the playoffs early, penalizing the teams who are already in even if they lose by them having an extra game.

No you haven’t. You’ve looked like shite for over a month now with bad wins over bad teams and now a terrible loss (and another bad loss to what’s not really a very good Oklahoma team).

The SEC isn’t what you think it is. Same as last year. There’s only one team from your conference with a real shot to win it all

We’re going to jump you tomorrow. We’re a much better team than you are right now. Shut your pie hole and deal with it.

At least he was honest and a good analyst of what he watched. Nicky probably says the same thing.

They had negative yards rushing. Typical Bama qb he is soft when pressured.

This is not their year.

Alabama defenses faced since Nov:

Notre Dame defenses faced since Nov:

Want to go back further? It doesn't get any better for Notre Dame.

You want to start cherry picking stats?

How about you check out FPI? Sagarin? FEI?

You’re not very good any longer. Learn to accept it.

They only have 1 loss and both have more difficult schedules than Notre Dame.

Probably right about Alabama. Not sure there's really 12 other teams that do deserve it though.

Those are power rankings.

If you want to look at it where FEI thinks teams should be ranked for the season, then you need to look at the SOR stat. Going into tonight that had Alabama 7th and Notre Dame 13th.

FPI has Alabama #8 and Notre Dame 13th.

I would use a different formula, but that's what SOR is supposed to be.

It's literally what the stats say.

Texas A&M has the #32 schedule, Notre Dame has the #42 schedule.

He's just from the BCS mindset where playoff teams should be teams that are national contenders.

But that's impossible with 12 teams.

He should be 100% correct, but the format is stupid.

Texas A&M had a very soft schedule.

By SEC standards yes.

Compared to Notre Dame, frick no.

If you want to talk about schedules, then look at Ole Miss. They are the only SEC team with a weaker schedule than Notre Dame.

3down10- ok...so you think Texas A&M had a harder schedule than Notre Dame....show me what was harder than Notre Dames since the only quality teams A&M played were ND and Texas while ND played Miami, Texas A&M, and USC.
