Anyone who thinks ND has more talent than Bama, Clemson, OSU, and UGA is lying to themselves

So it's justified to think ND will have their hands full. (Outside of Bama, which playoff team won't?)

Does that mean ND isn't a better team? No.

Does it mean they'll lose? No.

But if we are looking purely at talent, ND will be at the short end of the stick.
