The biggest travesty in all of this is...

  • If Notre Dame makes the title game, it will be a shame.

    Notre Dame played 5 games poorly this year: BYU, Pitt, Purde, Stanford, Michigan that would have resulted in a blowout loss to A&M or LSU - probably to MSU as well.

    We need to rank based on the product on the field and not just win/loss records. Bama will finish with 2 wins and 3 faced against the top 10. Notre Dame will have 0 and 0. And they will have razor thin victories against 3 awful teams.

    Just a travesty. If they had the name Houston on their jerseys with their schedule and performance, they'd be ranked 11th.

    This is my nightmare scenario as well and even worse so if they were to find a way to win the NC game seeing how we would likely beat them by 3-4 touchdowns.

    If they make it and we don't though it will be nobodies fault but our own. Its hard to be too disappointed in the team though with how hard they fought yesterday, we just came out flat and you can't do that against a team as good as A&M. I'm disappointed but it is hard to stay too down for too long win I think about all of the games/championships we have won over the last 5 years. Hopefully we will finish strong and win another SECC and possibly have a shot at the NC with a little help.

    I don't think it will be "nobodies fault but our own." Since it's not an apples to apples comparison. I don't see KSU or ND being undefeated with our schedule...

    Notre Dame reminds me a lot of the 2002 Ohio State team. Ugliest wins I have ever seen in my life.

    I understand what you are saying but we were good enough to run the table and just didn't get it done. A combination of our recent history, schedule, and play had us in a position where we were guaranteed a spot in the NC while two other unbeatens would be left out, but it won't allow us to get in over an unbeaten while we have 1 loss unfortunately.

    Hopefully we will get some help so that we have a chance to redeem ourselves.

  • I agree. I remember when just making a BCS game period was an accomplishment. We are on the verge of making three in four years.
