No doubt that NIU loss was ugly, but the eye test is undeniable. Notre Dame has been playing excellent ball since then which can’t be written off by stating their competition has been mediocre. NIU was a case of an immature team coming off a high, but they’ve definitely matured since. They could hang with any of the top teams right now and I’m saying that as a Michigan man. Oregon and Ohio might be the front runners by a hair but honestly this season could be anyone’s to take home.
@@timothyhawkins5825 what “eye test” Congratulations Notre Dame you dominated a 9-0 Army team who’s steeped schedule was in the 130’s They haven’t done anything that says they are one of the best 12 teams…beating A&M week 1 isn’t not impressive but A&M could end a 4 loss squad and that would be their best win.
I'm probably on an island on this one, but why can't we have conference playoffs, followed by an old-school bowl season, then an AP-crowned national champion? The conferences make additional revenue from a 4-team playoff; the bowl games would draw more viewers and attendees (more money) as they would impact final rankings and, ultimately, the national champion. I dunno. The CFP just seems unsustainable: I think the Big Ten and SEC will soon peel off from FBS - taking the CFP with them.
First, an old-school bowl season has about 10 bowls, where you have to actually be good, not 34 where anything of 0.500 or better gets you in. Why even play, when AP can just tell us who the best teams are?
Y'all Mike Leach , RIP, gave us the solution for the playoffs with going to 64 teams.
😂 Ya'll...lol
Great show
David is spot on…
Strange entering the final week of the regular season with a clear idea of who the top 12 will be.
Notre Dame lost to NIU
But NOTRE DAME IS NOTRE DAME.
So the committee don’t care

@ you’re right doesn’t matter you paid 1.4 million to lose to a 5-6 G5 team at HOME. This ranking sucks and the committee ranking sucks
