BCS Rankings: 2012

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

Man we have no chance of making the championship game if dildos from the Bachelor are the deciding factor!

How would a team like Oregon be able to end with a tougher schedule than ND? Trick question: there is no way. We play USC and Stanford, and Oklahoma and Michigan will end up being better than Oregon State and another USC game.

 

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

Beating ever so tough Vandy, UT, and Bowling Green.

"How is ND ranked #2 in the computers"
"By beating the ever so tough Navy, Purdue, and Miami."

Works both ways. Florida has beat Texas A&M and LSU who are two of the better teams in the country, better than any team ND has played so far this year besides maybe Stanford & Michigan.

Oregons schedule is incredible weak. Only advantage is playing an additional game should they make it to the PAC 12 championship.

 

[sparkyND]

Within striking range. Just need to go out and win. The game in Norman is going to be huge!

Truth. Florida is similar to Notre Dame in that sense. A&M is mad overrated though and LSU's offense is anemic. I can't wait for the Florida-USCjr games and Florida-UGA games to see how good Florida is.

 

[Bluto]

Not sure what everyone is complaining about. Most of the stuff they said makes sense. Oregon and Kansas State have beat the crap out of everyone they played. Not sure Florida should be number 2. The cough before saying ND won with a goal line stand was lame but whatever. I'll take number 5 considering how erratic the offense has been. Just keep winning.

 

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

Best case scenario: LSU beats Alabama, Florida loses to South Carolina, LSU loses to Texas A&M, Mississippi State loses, and LSU beats South Carolina in the SEC championship game. Keep the SEC out of the NCG.

Michigan will be in there very soon. I don't see them losing again this year tbh.

Not so great for our strength of schedule though.

Win out and we are in. Guaranteed.

KSU had a very close game against Iowa State and didn't exactly blow out North Texas

 

[STLDomer]

Stanford running the table would help us (takes out Oregon and increase SOS)

 

[tko]

first BCS is simply backround noise to me. ESPN is so angry right now it's hilarious. this season has such a special feeling to it. this team needs to keep going out each week and finding a way to get it done and the chips will fall into place.

I think they can beat Oregon this year. The PAC12 is actually a really difficult conference this year. Only a step below the SEC. Oregon does not deserve their ranking currently by who they have played so far. They will have a rough last four weeks to end their season though.

 

[Rack Em]

Not so great for our strength of schedule though.

Agreed. That will change though. Like Title said, Michigan will win a lot. Plus I don't see MSU being a B1G bottom feeder. They'll get a few wins too. Purdue will go to a bowl game also.

I'm just so happy to see those smug jerk offs look worse than the Big East.

 

[WaveDomer]

Win out and we are in. Guaranteed.

I agree with this completely. ND's schedule is just a test every single week. Even the so-so teams. Who does Florida play towards the end of the season? Jacksonville State and Louisiana Lafayette. C'mon. If Notre Dame runs the table, they can't be ignored. No way.

 

[DomerInHappyValley]

The interwebs is mad. Predicting 3 losses now

 

[phgreek]

The difference.

One occupation has the dictum "First due no harm" while the other goes by, "Screw 'em for all you can get"

Interesting that doctors tend to be republicans and lawyers overwhelmingly democrats.


Go Irish!

...oh no you didn't !

My father is a doctor in a very red state and the vast majority of the MDs he works with are democrats... Also i feel like the "first do no harm" applies more to healthcare reform while "screw em for all you can get" sounds a lot like financial deregulation as well as the same CDO scam the major banks used on home buyers before the recession

 

[choo choo]

this has a chance to be a special year...not real sure we can run the table - its awful tough with that kind of schedule...BUT if we do end the season at 12-0 and the freakin world comes to an end in december im gonna be really pissed...

Don't worry man. If there's one thing I've learned in life, it's that Vin Diesel or Nicolas Cage will destroy the giant asteroid or terrorists before it's too late.

They might, and I hope so, but I don't know if Stanford has the offense this year to keep up with Oregon. We'll see.
I agree with those who see big things from Michigan. Yeah, they got shut down by maybe the two best defenses in the country, but look what they've done the last two weeks. They've got big games the next two weeks (MSU, @Neb) but if Robinson stays healthy, there's no reason they shouldn't be undefeated going into the Ohio State game.
No, I don't like them either. But we could use someone we've beat to start climbing the polls, and right now they look like the best bet.

Interesting that doctors tend to be republicans and lawyers overwhelmingly democrats.

Let me start with "due." This may be a simple misspelling ("do" vs "due") or possibly a Freudian slip. Many physicians feel that they are "due" a pass regardless of their actions simply because they "paid their dues" in terms of tuition, time and prestige. This can be a "false positive."

"Screw 'em for all you can get" is a common trait among some physicians, some defense attorneys and some plaintiff attorneys. Don't get me started on insurance companies. "I want mine regardless" can be found everywhere.

Painting with broad strokes does little good unless dealing with the broad side of a barn.

I could go on, but I won't. The "bottom line" is that there are many physicians and attorneys are on either side of the political divide. Many even straddle that fence.

I hate political season mostly because we have to see dumb crap like this in threads that have nothing to do with politics. Just because some people cant help but to be totally obnoxious.

Furthermore, you don't have proof of this. You are just pulling this out of your @ss.

oh... and.... go irish.

 

[GoldenBoy3]

Idk if anyone caught Jesse "The Bachelor" Palmer rant on ND. The one thing I agreed that if Bama, Oregon and ND go undefeated should ND leap over Oregon and I said no. But he continues talking about their inconsistent offense and how they wont go anywhere with Golson, and that they need Rees in as the starter.

 

[phork]

Golson is a work in progress, still. Tommy has become the Mr. Wolf of this football team. Coming off the bench and saying "I got this".
