Only the Gators had a tougher schedule than ND according to Sagarin BUT only ND and UF had 2 wins against Top 10 Teams, the other 3 only had one. Also keep in mind UA and UGA both had benefit of a an extra game to boost their toughness ... against an opponent that was not in a scheduled game.

ND also played all their games against Div 1A foes. None of the others did.

UF #14 Sagarin Toughest Schedule
ND #31
UA #34
SCar #35
UGA #39

The apparent difference between LaForce and Gottlieb ended when they both opened their mouths. She's still a pretty face but neither one is a competent sportsjournalist.

But they played SEC top 10 teams, and they would slaughter us.

Media has been doing this all season. At this point I would be scared if they started saying we'd do something crazy and beat Alabama, let alone match up well with them. If we prove it on the field, we can gloat while everyone eats crow, and it will be beautiful.

I would like to think that a Notre Dame win on January 7th, 2013 would end this type of stuff but it won't.

Get ready on Jan 8th to hear "It was a down year for college football".

Don't see much of an SEC bias on these picks...

Go ahead and light me up, but I like to learn from whomever...and though I agree this was not a great segment, I did hear for the first time an interesting thing to watch as the game unfolds:

Our offense (especially Golson it seemed) got so much better in the last 5 games. She mentions the layoff might cause some loss-of-effect in that area.

Given the reliance on timing for any offense, she might have a point. Will be interesting to see in our first few drives if we come out like we did for OK , or like we did for Pitt.

She is pretty hot, I give her a pass.
