SEC is overrated hype
Yes, there are some good teams in the SEC. There are tiers in all the conferences and there is little difference in the bottom half of most conferences year over year.

Wonder what they promised Yurachek for consistently buttering their muffin?

I believe, the IRISH are elite this year. NO doubt, SEC is the best conference typically, however, I
would say, their record may be 7-2 ish
perhaps, as good as 8-1
or as bad as 6-3
playing 6 tough games is much harder than playing 4 (Miami, BYU, SMU, Wisconsin)

Georgia is a top team. Bama, Tenn, LSU, Texas, Ole Miss, Auburn all very beatable.
The toughness of their schedule is inflated by their perrenially inflated rankings. They're better than the big 10 and ACC in football. But they have one elite team. The rest hover around average. The increased difficulty isnt that much more. They just hype the shit out of their games. I dont know that LSU is that much better than North Carolina. The real difference is how much better their bad teams are than the Big 10 and ACC's bad teams.
Id put Indiana, Oregon, USC, UCLA (this year), Iowa, Wisconsin as equal to Bama, Tenn, Kentucky, Auburn, Ole Miss. And Ohio St. equal to Georgia.

Elite? Based on what?
I think the hope preseason was that we'd see an elite team that we thought had arrived at that status for the first time since the 88-93 years of the Holtz era after the rocky start last year. It hasn't happened. This team has no identity on offense or defense. It frequently looks unprepared. It's talent and easy schedule and some good fortune (like Toney's injury) and chaos elsewhere have gotten it to a playoff position, but I would not be surprised by an upset in the next three games. If ND does get in, I'm skeptical about it contending for an NC. Something just feels off with this team.

the NFL draft status for ND is off the charts this year. We have dudes on both sides of the LOS
Carr and Leonard may BOTH be drafted within the 1st 5 NFL picks.
Kyng is a stud. Braente is a 1st round draft pick
our Defense is outstanding. I have not seen any other CF play this year that scares be in a matchup IF the Irish play to their potential. They have 5-7 starters OUT on D and they are still elite. They made the Miami QB look like a kid...

Yeah, the talent is elite. Coaching just above average. And by comparison...
to other teams this year, yep they're elite. Top 5 overall.

That’s a stretch claiming SMU and Wisconsin are tough

Oregon and Ohio State were ranked 1 & 2 to start the season...see how that worked out...
let's see how these last few weeks pan out...
