If the answer is yes, the media needs to shut it already. I would like someone from the ND point of view (beat writer, insider, Aaron Taylor, Theismann, Ryan Harris) to get on some of these shows and speak because , as usual with the media, they found a villain and are only expressing opinions that fit the narrative. This might bleed into the Heisman voting. This might bleed into the committee because everybody wants to be loved and not scorned.
Sure.
I think Nick saban saying he has us as a top 5 team tells us someone is noticing. Others have said similar things.

ing everyone else. By how good they have gotten. By the metrics.
And in the meantime, who has OSU played? Indiana played no one but Oregon who was struggling in general at the time.
Texas Tech has played no one.
BYU same.

That said, ND had a notionally tougher schedule in 2025
It wasn't ND's fault that Boise St.and Arkansas are having bad years
And USC is only somewhat good.
The wariness about ND is not because of ND's scheduling.
IU should be held to the same scheduling standard.
I.e., scheduling chump teams for cheap wins matters.
