We dropped to #18 after NIU. Winning out would be a major achievement. - Hensou - 3:32pm 11/14/24 (12) [View All]
- the NIU loss lit a fire underneath the IRISH. They NEVER want to feel that again! [NT] - KWIRISH - 10:01pm 11/14/24
  - I would have thought Marshall and Stanford losses would have lit that fire. - ELP - 10:40pm 11/14/24
    - The NIU coach called Freeman after the game and told him why they were able to win - MarkHarman - 9:12am 11/15/24

  - agreed [NT] - KWIRISH - 11:14pm 11/14/24
- Winning out, especially the way they have been doing it, makes the NIU loss that much more painful. - ELP - 6:01pm 11/14/24
  - Shit, the 64 loss killed our national championship hope. The NIU loss as bad as it was, has not. - THEISMANCARR - 6:29pm 11/14/24
    - …because of a 12 team playoff. - TakethetrainKnute - 6:52am 11/15/24

UT #3 with no top 25 wins. Best W= Vanderbilt - KWIRISH - 7:41pm 11/13/24 (48) [View All]
- More importantly, how is PSU #4. It's laughable. - LanceManion - 10:44am 11/14/24
  - And scored 6 offensive points in that game. - NDinKentucky - 12:04pm 11/14/24
    - Remember, they scored 34 against mighty Bowling Green (but gave up 27). I don't get it. - LanceManion - 1:52pm 11/14/24
      - They are really the only ranking I have heartburn with.. - Chrisb - 4:06pm 11/14/24
        See, I really dislike them but they have two good running backs like us, very good defensive backs - THEISMANCARR - 5:20pm 11/15/24

  - Texas currently has 1 power 4 win against a team with a winning record. - AlbanyIRISH - 5:55am 11/14/24
    - UPSET ALERT this weekend! Texas also looks to get beat by A&M and NOT make the playoff! [NT] - KWIRISH - 10:03pm 11/14/24

    - ESPN radio should check their own ESPN website [LINK] - Chrisb - 11:07pm 11/13/24
  - Why does that matter? - iairishcheeks - 10:11pm 11/13/24
    - As the season progresses, current rankings mean more - KWIRISH - 11:03pm 11/13/24
      - Rankings are not a quantitative measure of how good a team actually is... - Chrisb - 11:22pm 11/13/24
        Huge difference between that argument - WoodstockIrish - 8:16am 11/14/24
        I'm not mixing apples and oranges.. - Chrisb - 8:41am 11/14/24
        Should GT get more credit for beating FSU than ND or not? [NT] - iairishcheeks - 8:53am 11/14/24

        Seems like you're projecting this 'feelings' bullshit. - iairishcheeks - 1:43pm 11/14/24
        Wrong, I have only pointed out facts while you have only leaned on your feelings... - Chrisb - 2:33pm 11/14/24
        Point to where you think my feeling came into play. - iairishcheeks - 2:56pm 11/14/24
        
        How do you reconcile that argument with this one? [LINK] - iairishcheeks - 11:36pm 11/13/24
    - BINGO [NT] - KWIRISH - 11:01pm 11/13/24
    - Completely agree with you - WoodstockIrish - 10:48pm 11/13/24
      - The only thing is momentum and attitude are important if you are playing a team. If they are ranked - THEISMANCARR - 1:04am 11/14/24
        We are taking anout teams that were ranked and now have 3-4 losses - WoodstockIrish - 8:06am 11/14/24
        
        So what happened against NIU? - iairishcheeks - 7:14am 11/14/24
    - What kind of logic is this... - Zander - 10:32pm 11/13/24
      - Simple: as more games are played, the polls become more reflective of reality. - iairishcheeks - 10:42pm 11/13/24
        Re: Simple: as more games are played, the polls become more reflective of reality. - Zander - 10:08am 11/14/24

        Was ND a better team on Oct 18th, 2014 when we were 6-0 and ranked #5, and - Chrisb - 10:56pm 11/13/24
        Exactly our attitude for that game was reflected in our achievement and obviously hit the shitter as - THEISMANCARR - 1:07am 11/14/24
        
        FSU underperformed in that game. [NT] - iairishcheeks - 11:37pm 11/13/24
        We certainly won the line of scrimmage and were the more physical team that night. - NDinKentucky - 12:12pm 11/14/24
        You could say we overachieved or they underachieved. - iairishcheeks - 6:02pm 11/14/24
        
        That may be the biggest bullshit response ever posted on this board. - Chrisb - 7:33am 11/14/24
        FSU was a lot better than ND in 2014, the records and stats prove it. - iairishcheeks - 7:44am 11/14/24
        
        That is a bullshit answer. If they underperformed it was because we performed well and we did not - THEISMANCARR - 1:15am 11/14/24
        It was fools gold, at no point in 2014 were we the actual 5th best team in the country. - iairishcheeks - 6:53am 11/14/24
        Defense was getting badly exposed by mid season - ndunabomber - 6:26pm 11/14/24
        That was tough to read, I repressed a lot of those memories [NT] - iairishcheeks - 6:32pm 11/14/24
        
        Early season rankings are a joke - WoodstockIrish - 8:10am 11/14/24
        We agree, using early season rankings in any argument is a weak argument. [NT] - iairishcheeks - 8:12am 11/14/24
        In addition, here's a hypothetical to prove the absurdity of their argument. - iairishcheeks - 8:36am 11/14/24

Sure seems like the committee is going to screw over Notre Dame based on latest CFP rankings, [NT] [LINK] - whatsamataU - 9:13am 11/13/24 (13) [View All]
- A better system would be to guarantee the 4 conf champs get in & host a home game but seed by rank - jrdjr84 - 9:45am 11/13/24
  - An even better system would be just like it is now for Conf Champs getting bye, but seed by rank. [NT] - Chrisb - 9:47am 11/13/24

    - Agree somewhat, but in what scenario does anyone ever - Chrisb - 2:45pm 11/11/24

        Agreed, but in essence that is what you're already doing if the ""loss"" doesn't count in CCG - Chrisb - 3:52pm 11/11/24
        But what about the MONEY!?!?!?!?! [NT] - ndphysics - 7:13am 11/12/24
        Life is about decisions...if they care about the money that much, then they gotta accept dropping - Chrisb - 8:37am 11/12/24
    - Philosophically, I agree, however the super conferences mean a lot of teams don't play each other - iairishcheeks - 12:08pm 11/11/24
- Alabama could jump us with 2 top 10 wins and an SEC title. [NT] - ndphysics - 11:08am 11/11/24
  - If they win the SEC, jumping us in the rankings is irrelevant [NT] - Irish_Demon - 11:30am 11/11/24
