ESPN Power Rankings this week:

[stu4don]

We're still at three. Alabama, Georgia, ND, Clemson, Oklahoma, Miami

Our opponents:

Georgia #2
Miami #6
USC #12
MSU #17 (seems low for me but I bet everyone is expecting an OSU beatdown.)
NCS #24

That is a pretty impressive pedigree at this point. Hell, USC could win the Pac 12, Georgia the SEC, and MSU the Big Ten, and Miami (go Irish!) the ACC!

Beat Miami and stay the course vs. Navy and Stanford (both always tough games) and we're in...

Wasn’t everyone expecting a PSU beatdown of Sparty?

 

[SpartanJD]

We have 3 wins over ranked teams. 17 is too low. Should be top 15 at least.

Committe has us 12. Two wins over top 20 teams and two losses to ranked teams. Plus I bet Michigan is ranked 26

Osu is going to be a tough game.

If ND beats #7 Miami, can ND jump Alabama?

If ND beats #7 Miami, can ND jump Alabama?

I was thinking the same thing. Probably not but that doesn't mean ND shouldn't.

Bama's big wins were mediocre wins over FSU and LSU. Almost every team playing FSU has beaten them worse. And, LSU lost to Troy - really?!?

 

[Irish Grandeur]

ND has dominated on the field three (four) teams still in the race for division titles: SC, MSU, NCST (hopefully Miami is added).

 

[HarlemIrish]

Seemed like Herbie is a big proponent for the Sooners. I do think the Irish if they win out with their pedigree gets in.
