ND should clearly but number 6 as both the AP and Coaches polls reflected. I remember what Herbstreet said in 2012. Can you imagine a world where Notre Dame gets selected behind Kansas State??? Here we are 2014, a new poll but the same ole recent problem. I hate to say this but maybe ND should go ahead and join a conference. I guess the ACC. Even though South Bend is far from the Atlantic Coast. Unless something better could be arranged.

Just come out and run right passed Navy. I think sometimes there’s an urge to beat Navy at their own game and run the ball right over ’em. Yes, that’s good but with Navy’s secondary it should be a passers dream right? Maybe a few good deep balls. Golson may also have some chances to run tonight.
ND 38-21. Go Irish!

ND should prevail based on talent alone, scheme not withstanding. Looking forward to (hopefully) seeing Doug Randolph on the field (finally!!!) on special teams. GO IRISH!!!

The commitee needs to hold it against teams when they are say 7-1 but 2 or 3 of those wins are against Jacksonville St, Samford, and Presbyterian. Either stop counting those as “eligible” wins towards the playoff record or add a metric that deducts some amount for games played against those teams like they seemed to created with this new Game Control Stat.

And after all, there are some real “heavy weight games” remaining in the SEC that the committee must take into consideration: Ole Miss vs. Presbyterian; Georgia vs. Charleston; Alabama vs. West Carolina; Miss. State vs. Tennessee-Martin; Auburn vs. Samford! No doubt, this is a real tough conference, right? and I did not even mention who they played in their first 3 games!

Whitecoat
ND ’62

they’re a good team but if the irish can’t blow them out in a big way they will probably drop in the BCS rankings and they should. Notre Dame has come a long way and now they need to do what all really good teams do. That is beat inferior opponents by big margins. No excuses. Three touchdowns is not going to be enough on a week when auburn plays ole miss and stanford plays oregon and more. Win them all and win big against inferior teams or play in a crap bowl game. very simple

If we are going to judge teams based on their performance Notre Dame beat Florida State except in the official record. They are a one lost team that didn’t really lose a game. How do you rank all those other one lose teams ahead of them? Did the committee watch the game? It seems to me that the only way ND will make the playoffs in the future is to go undefeated or hope that it goes to an eight game playoff. I hope ND comes out with an attitude the rest of the season and let the chips fall where they may.

I think ND will handle Navy easily with speed and an aggressive attacking defense. ND 49 Navy 14.

I know Kelly said to “stop crying” about the cut blocks, but they concern me. It’s clear that to have any chance at the playoffs ND has to win out and rely on some head-to-head eliminations.

My score predictions are consistently wrong so I won’t make one. Sure would be nice to have 15 minutes of Malik Zaire.

The committee seems to like 55-0 wins over complete garbage FCS opponents then losing at the wire to the defending champs on a bogus call and beating mediocre power conference teams. This is such a head scratcher to me. I guess you said it—I underestimated that they would be shills for the Power 5. Let’s just take care of our business and let the chips fall where they may. ND 41-17
