The SEC probably had the 5-6 best teams in the country that year.
Alabama 11-1
UGA was 11-1 (Waxed by USCe)
LSU was 10-2 (Beckham fumbled inside the florida 30 to choke it away & Yeldon screen pass loss)
Aggie was 10-2 (Beat Bama)
Florida was 11-1
USCe was 10-2
All 6 of those teams would have destroyed ND.
Side note: LSU dicking around and losing to Clemson is likely what jump started their dynasty

2012 was probably our best team ever. It sucked how Georgia and Florida were insanely good that year as well

Your best team ever lost by 33 points to Muschamp and Driskel?

2010 was better

The East was dreadful that season.

The west was stacked.

Speaking for Auburn, I sure hope not.

We held Florida to like 180 yards. Too bad we had 4 turnovers

Gamecocks whipped us that year! jeez

We basically spotted y'all 14 or more points right out the gate. Yall's D was salty that year and we couldn't recover.
I think our 2011 team was more talented. Had all those guys mentioned plus Melvin Ingram, Stephon Gilmore, healthy for half season Lattimore, and Alshon Jeffery
