I think there is a realistic chance of it. USC certainly has the talent, we just don't know how they are going to play. LSU is really hard to beat at home, and their defense is not far behind Alabama's. We have seen a superior Alabama team go in the tiger's den and lose before.

Those two teams are not even good. It's so ****ing stupid that they are getting credit for beating up on two clearly overrated teams, whereas our clearly overrated teams (Michigan and MSU) are totally discounted. And why, why, why, WHY are we not getting credit for beating Stanford?

As much as I like -- check that -- LOVE seeing Michigan and USC lose, this season is real for the Irish for once. We needed those idiots to win this weekend. I will riot if we go 12-0 and get left out.

We'd be behind KSU and LSU then. I'm telling you guys, whoever wins the SEC championship game is going to the NC. The pollsters will not let them be shut out. I don't care how many undefeated teams there are. We need KSU to lose and we need Oregon to lose. And we'll play the SEC champion. That's our only realistic path to the NC game.

I predict that Alabama loses this week. I also don't see Oregon beating USC twice. And I think that K-State stumbles and loses 1 they shouldn't.

Good to hear Palmer say that we should be ahead of K-State though due to our better showings against similar opponents.

Unfortunately, I believe you are right. Can you imagine that scenario. To quote Marty Huggins:''It's a mess!''.

I totally disagree. There is no way in hell that If Notre Dame is undefeated, we will be jumped by a 1-loss team. Doesn't matter that they're the SEC.

You guys are acting like we are an undefeated Boise team or something. We might have the strongest brand in college football. If we continue winning, the hype machine will continue pumping us up. It's only people's opinions that are holding us back right now, the computers see us as one of the best #2 teams right now.

We will have the resume when the season ends, take a chill pill chicken-littles.
