They have the same record because ND played a top 10 opponent and Miami did not. Using the Texas A&M game in this comparison is useless because we had no idea what Miami would do had they played someone as good as Texas A&M. Comparing same strength opponents, ND had a better record.
If you want to claim they proved more you need to substantiate your claim. Your logic is really flimsy by the way. It’s clear you invented it just to justify an opinion you already had. To prove it, by your logic Louisville and SMU should be over Miami because their best win is better than Miami’s. But of course you don’t believe this because you don’t actually believe in your own logic.
