That makes me feel better about the NIU loss. It was a tough loss for ND against a really good NIU team.

The fact that you compare Notre Dame to Louisville is embarrassing:
Be better.
Why? You saying that Louisville losing wasn’t surprising is embarrassing. I guess NIU wasn’t that bad of a loss then if Louisville losing wasn’t surprising.
Nobody. It’s November and nobody looks great. Everyone has flaws especially at the most important position.
However I think there’s atleast 3 or 4 teams better than Oregon
I am surprised by Oregon losing. I put Wisky and Nebraska in the same category of great coaches but lacking in talent.
I’m not.
Winning on the road is difficult week in and week out. Conference road games are a chore to win for most everyone. No matter who you are.
Ohio state lost to them in Eugene but I still think Ohio state is slightly better. I think ND is better. I think Texas is better
Oregon goes up 3 with 2 minutes left!
Ducks hang on for the W.
Georgia now up 14 on Tenn. late.

Espn analytics are a joke. 4th and G from the 6 is a go for it to them. BYU game. Not a chance. You basically never see that unless a TD is a must.
And this does highlight how f+ and a lot of other analytics systems are, at a minimum, not to be taken as gospel — just another tool.

Do we get in the playoff over a 2 loss Tenn team? Probably, but their 2 losses are Georgia and Arkansas, and they beat Bama.
A one loss ND? I’d say 90% and should be 100%. Two loss ND is debatable and probably depends on what A&M does.
Gonna be interesting. If Texas loses to A&M, they should be the first two loss team eliminated of the SEC teams though I’m not sure the committee will see it that way. Tenn or Mississippi next IMO as it looks now.
Louisville was 20.5 to 21.5 point favorites. It was surprising Louisville lost. There’s no other way to say it.
What ranking do you use then ? Arkansas is ranked even higher in FPI (@ #30)
FPI: #30
F+: #44
Both of these systems rank teams using play by play data and adjust for opponent quality.
Arkansas would be one of the 3 best teams on NDs schedule so far
Arkansas is better than every ND opponent except TAM, IMO.
Claiming Arkansas is not good is a relative term. Most of Notre Dame’s schedule isn’t good as well.
Do you ever get tired of coming on this message board and making a fool of yourself being incorrect over and over again?
BYU goes down and looks pathetic doing it
Had a first and ten inside the 15 and they run it three times
totally deserved to lose

For the record, according to your own favorite rankings F-
Louisville 19th
Arkansas 47th
GT 49th
Good chance Arkansas drops below GT next ranking so......
Do you trust your own rankings system or not? You never seen to answer that when it doesn't fit your narrative
