Attrition is the mission. For the Irish, it's "Just Win, Baby"
Several higher ranked team still have guaranteed losses from interplay, and teams will lose games they shouldn't - see Alabama.
Keep winning and nothing to worry about.
No. 12 is way too low for Notre Dame FIghting Irish

For the 11 teams above, against which teams would the line favor ND at a neutral site?
My opinion is that Miami is still a pretender and maybe Penn State too.
Ped would be an underdog with us

No they would not…
They have not tripped over an also-ran MAC school in the first half of their season.
Not saying the Irish can’t beat them…but PSU WOULD be favored.
Miami doesn’t have a single ranked team on its schedule
Penn State will get exposed by Ohio State but depending on score won’t drop out of Top Ten
That’s the challenge for ND…
Four conference champs…
3 more SEC teams?
3 more Big Ten?
2 ACC?
Could be aced out…will be a nail biter…two loss SEC teams will get in before us
Not sure the same could be said for a Big Ten?
Lot of ranking ambiguity when winning with an ACC schedule. Even moreso with 4 non-Power opponents.

So what team would you put in ND place that’s 5&1 and lost to a MAC conference level team.

Ohio State is 2 spots above Oregon despite losing to them and having a worse SOS.
Good rankings.
Doesn't make sense to me either
