Most of the chatter is that what Oklahoma has done already is better than what ND has done. Alabama does not enter that discussion, they haven't played yet.
Even still, Alabama will be a game that decides their fate. If they lose, they are done. If they win, then yes, 2 loss Oklahoma should be ranked ahead of us.
Look at the schedule they've played up to this point in the season and tell me what makes it so much better than what ND has played. That was the point I was making in regards to the Sooners fans being outraged.
