The ND fans?

Yeah... Actually, even Brian Kelly had a bit of a meltdown on the post-game interview. You should see them trying to compartmentalize and rationalize the reasons they lost....

I've watched their past three games but Stanford should be no lower than 3rd brehs. They're the only team in the top 5 I can see beating Oregon or Bama. They are that good.

Ohio state vs ACC Winner will play for the National title game.

No team in the SEC or Pac 12 is gonna run the table, they're all coming out with 1 loss.

They are very good. They dismantled WSU, which despite what people might think, isnt a huge pushover this year. Do they face Oregon this year?

Yep. Nov. 7th in Eugene

 

[BigSteve]

Late to the party on my Top 25 but...

TIER ONE - on another level
1. Bama
2. Oregon
3. Clemson
4. Stanford

TIER TWO - playing well, but I could see a hiccup (or there's been a hiccup)
5. Ohio State
6. Florida State
7. Georgia
8. LSU
9. Texas a&m
10. Oklahoma
11. Baylor
12. Miami

TIER THREE - still finding their identity, or not QUITE what they've been or what they could be. This is the no-man's-land of teams on the rise and teams on the fall.
13. Louisville
14. UCLA
15. Washington
16. South Carolina
17. Michigan
18. Northwestern
19. Florida
20. Maryland
21. Oklahoma state
22. Arizona State
23. Fresno State
24. Ole Miss
25. Texas Tech

I tried to imagine every team playing the team above or below it at a neutral site.

 

[BigSteve]

Yes, I am on the Baylor bandwagon. Thus far, I haven't seen many teams that could keep up with them.

Yes, I am on the Baylor bandwagon. Thus far, I haven't seen many teams that could keep up with them.

All it'll take is a team to play keep away and be extremely physical w/ them. Think miami vs Nebraska 2001 NC game
