ND Schadenfreude

Yes, I am a poor loser. But, to Hell with Notre Dame. Gonna have some Cheerios now in a bowl of Domer tears!

Won 2 games with never leading 1 second (0:00)

One of top 2-3 flukes in past 25 years to win one of them.

Won 3 other games on last drive fuckups by QBs incl a wide open wr overthown by Adams (Oregon, Purdue, rutgers).

Going 5-1 in games decided on last drive or 0:00 qualifies those fuckers.

Was thinking about this earlier, for some reason I could see this happening, even though I think MSU is over rated as well.

Reason is: no one is particularly dominant this year. MSU would beat Clemson, esp if get Cook back, but don't need him to beat papier-mâché le Clem /tips hat to danwillhor

None of Clemson, Iowa, and MSU look like world beaters to me. OU looks surprisingly competitive but there's a reason they've been nicknamed Chokelahoma. My money is on Bama right now

Everyone is over-rated except us... and apparently WE'RE over-rated too!

But on the real side - if I could pick 4 teams based on how they've looked the past 3 or so weeks without regard for anything that happened in Sept or Oct - Stanford, Oregon, Clemson, Oklahoma would be my FINAL 4. Not in that order. The Pac12 teams would have to be split, but I wouldn't be all that surprised by a Stanford-Oregon final. Oklahoma is playing very well too though.

Did you see Oregon play against Oregon State the other day? That's one of your top 4 teams? 42 points to a team that had only scored 43 in the past month. Oregon has a top 25 offense and a historically bad defense. That team shouldn't sniff anyone's top 4.

Clemson is the paperiest of paper tigers, IMO. They are this year's 2014 Oregon in how they're almost assured to lose in the first game of the playoff.

Happy with result but sick of relying on other teams doing shit we can't do - beating rivals

(and yes I know ND and UM didnt play this year but we are 0-5 past 2 years vs these 3)

We sound like a lil bro who sends in bigger kids to beat up the kid who steals our lunch money.

Loss today takes UM of NY6 bowls. ND will still be top 12 and be NY6.

We will play a SEC team in Citrus or Outback. Hopefully GA since (a) they sort of suck right now (b) we have never played em!

The year started with Rudock and the passing game the perceived weakness and the defense the perceived strength. It ended completely the opposite.

Prevent defense only prevents you frlom winning. Well done Notre Dame...

I am thankful that Oklahoma is beating the holy hell out of a highly ranked Oklahoma State...people can stop talking about Ohio State getting in at all.

If Stanford wins the Pac 12 championship be interesting to see if the committee takes them or Sparty/Iowa winner (assuming Clemson, Alabama and Oklahoma all get in ahead)

That's a given. No way a two-loss Stanford team gets in. They done. OSU would get in ahead of them. Stanford lost to Northwestern.

OSU didn't play NWST and played a garbage NC schedule. Plus Stanford has the better set of wins by far. It would be Stanford ahead of OSU.

Not worth cheering only because if Florida beats Bama next weekend that means Ohio State is probably in the playoffs as a 4 seed. MSU would be a 3 seed. They could meet in the championship game.

Clemson will barely win. Playoff will be (in order): Clemson, Bama, Oklahoma, msu. Clemson will lose to msu and Oklahoma will outscore Bama. Then Oklahoma will play their worst game since Texas and msu will become the worst NC team in the history of ever. Clemson is begging to lose and msu is having one of those seasons propped up by 90% luck/10% play. I see it. I'll end my life on that nignt.

That's what I'm curious about. Do they prioritize conference champions? If so, do they rank a 2 loss Stanford (assuming they beat USC) over OSU? If Carolina pulls an upset, do they vault themselves into the top 4, as they only have one loss?
