ND should have lost at home to Pitt, ... Pitt ... at South Bend!

Pitt is 5-6, .. 2-4 in the mighty Big East.

If it were anyone else, they would not be No. 1

I hope Bama crushes them, ... Saban is a WV boy, Roll Tide!

Shoulda, woulda, coulda...didn't. :cool:

Go Irish!

:laugh2: So beating #10 Michigan State on the road, #18 Michigan, #8 Oklahoma on the road, and a tough rivalry win at USC should be negated because Pitt got close to beating them?

Yes, that's what I'm saying. When we are talking #1 team in the nation, ... that should never happen at home.

Sounds like somebody who's team dropped 5 in a row is a little jealous.

Different thread, has nothing to do with Notre Dame. (ridiculous thing to suggest)

I am not an Irish fan by any means but I think Georgia is the worst matchup for them. When they went into Oklahoma and put a beat down on them, they got my respect. Whoever they play I see a low scoring game. Playing against their defense is like slogging through the mud.

Well fortunately for us Irish fans the BCS, AP Top 25, USA Today Coaches Poll, and Harris Poll all disagree with you and have Notre Dame at #1. The Legends Poll does have Notre Dame ranked #2 behind Bama and yet they'd still be paying for a National Championship. I guess the fact that Notre Dame ALMOST lost to Pitt doesn't weigh as heavily in their minds.

My facts are straight. That's what each team was ranked when the Irish beat them. Not their ranking after the season was over. It doesn't really matter though, the Irish are playing for the National Championship and should be.
which is why there shouldn't be any rankings till about week 8 imo. Teams get way too much credit for beating over ranked teams early. Hell, USC was #1 and the Big 10 is always ridiculously ranked early.

I'm not saying ND doesn't deserve to be there they won all their games.

Notre Dame gets 17,000 BCS title game tickets ($350 face value each). Told they’ve had requests for more than 100,000 tickets.

They dropped from 1 to 4 ahead of the other 1 loss teams which is ok and then #2 and #3 lost. Now they'll have to beat #3 to make the championship. That also ran they lost to is now #7? Who should go ahead of them? The only one loss teams would be Bama, Florida, Oregon and Kstate? Oregon lost at home later than Bama and Kstate got rolled by Baylor. I don't know why anyone would have an issue with Alabama this year if they beat Georgia who won the SEC East over Florida.

:hammer:

Great post.

UGA got destroyed by USC. Yeah, it was on the road. But, it was an embarrassing loss.

Personally, I think either Oregon or Alabama is more worthy of a title shot than UGA and maybe Stanford as well.

This is a big reason why I dislike college football. The media always gives the SEC the benefit of the doubt.

YR

That's because the SEC has won the last seven (?) National Championships.

You earn a good reputation, you ride that reputation.

I'm an SEC fan, but ND matches up well with Bama. Bama is a run-oriented team, and that is ND's strength.

ND's weakness is its secondary. So is Bama's. But Bama isn't much of a passing team. They can get clicking in the passing game, but no one's going to confuse them with USC (with Barkley) or Oregon.

Besides, Bama's starting wide receiver (Bell) went down with a broken ankle. That's going to impact the passing game.

I can see ND winning this game against Bama. This Bama team is not like last year's Bama team.

Having said that, Johnny Football is about the best quarterback Bama has seen. They couldn't handle him until the second half. I doubt ND's quarterback will pose a bigger threat than Johnny Football.

But we're getting ahead of ourselves. It may be Georgia vs. ND. I think Georgia would be the worst matchup for ND because Georgia has a better passing game than Bama.

I like the tackle I think he's number 90. I could make tackles playing behind that guy.
