One week ago I posted it was wishful thinking to believe ND would make the Final Four.
Despite the accuracy of this prediction, it was chastised by many. One week later with the USC data point in hand,
I reiterate my prediction. ND is a good team but is not an elite one. If they played Bama, Clemson, Ohio State, LSU, Florida
or Wisconsin they would loose decisively. ND does not play with "consistent"self-assuredness or self confidence,
lacks unrelenting aggressiveness on both O and D and demonstrates little ability for rapid on field adjustments. Elite teams do!
Despite that, I am delighted ND beat USC last night even if it was not by the expected dominant score.
