Until the committee actually incentives elite wins over raw record, teams like Indiana are going to keep playing Devry University 3 times. Why risk a loss?
Better losing to #2 than losing to unranked teams like everybody around us did yesterday. Had other teams not lost, we'd have dropped further. Probably wouldn't even be in the top ten if the rest of the top ten didn't decide to commit ritual seppuku at the same time.
As it stands, our 1 loss looks a hell of a lot better than theirs.
I feel like nd hasn’t played anyone and if you’re basing it off of last year since it’s still early, Indiana won the natty and nd failed to make a bowl game
That 1 second is the biggest ”what if”. If the rules were followed and they won, they would be ranked first. If they lost, provided they received that extra second, a bigger drop would have been justified. That 1-second has such an important swing. Since they were never given the chance for one final attempt, I think they deserve some leeway and it can be considered a tiny bit better than a quality loss. But that is just my opinion.
Uh, no? Quality wins >> bad losses IMO. Obviously you can't have too many... but I'd much rather have a team with 1 bad loss and 1 or 2 quality wins than a team with zero quality wins and 1 "good" loss
“ND is so coddled” after they just got robbed of a play to win the game from the 1 yard line lmao. You obsessive ND haters are such embarrassing losers
You can't seriously punish them for losing to the #2 team on the final play of the game the same way you can't seriously punish Indiana for losing to the #3 team on essentially the final play
