How is it that the #11 team is a 5.5 point favorite over the #1 CFP team? The Math doesn't add up.

Because the only ranked team ND played, they lost and ND is not in a conference. I have Miami winning, not that I don’t want ND to win, but because I’m a realist. And ND should not at all be in the CFP when they lose Saturday. Had we had Al Golden for this game and BYU, then these rankings would be a moot point. Since we have C.A., I see Miami winning. He’s shown nothing to give me any confidence. Spare me the ND national D stats when that was against putrid competition and the one ranked team they played, he completely shit the bed and followed that up with a horrible fist half against Navy. He needs to go, or Freeman deserves all these big game losses going forward. My only issues with Denbrock was primarily against BYU throwing it nearly 50-times when Carr was struggling. He should had leaned more on the run game to at least slow the game down and rest and out coached defense.

ND wins a tight game.

membership. Next year and following, if we can't make the top 24, we don't deserve to be in a playoff -- and the conference/strength of schedule banter becomes irrelevant

It’s about money, they need even out the money that’s being bet on both sides of the line
