1.) how many of those p4 teams were from a 1 bid conference? 2.) Notre Dame LOST to 2 of those 3. Miami beat their 1 (guess who) 3.) never mind guys this dude dk ball idk how to explain the concept of anything to do with playoff selection anymore
Notre Dame beat the same number of P4 teams as Bama. Notre Dame played 3 currently ranked teams, Miami played 1, Ole Miss played 2, Oregon played 3. UVA, OSU, and BYU all got punished for losing their conference championship. Conference isn’t the problem.

5 of the 8 were ACC. Notre Dame won those 5 games by a total of 158. Alabama won all 8 of its P4 games by a total of 88 (70 less in 3 more games). Notre Dame lost to #7 and #10 by a total of 4 points in the first two weeks of the season. Alabama lost to #3, #8, and a 5-7 FSU by a total of 37 points, 21 coming from its most recent game. Notre Dame finished 10-0, Alabama won 4 of its last 6 games, 3 of them being by a combined 25 points to 7-5 LSU, 5-7 Auburn, and 4-8 SC. The other to an FCS team.

You can name whatever stats you want, doesn’t mean yk ball lil bro. Theres 0 easy road games in the SEC- the coach with the most natty’s oat. And the coach who happened to beat nd in the national championship 2 times in 8 years by a combined score of 45 points since you like your stats so much)

Nd has proven that without playing in a conference their data points are unreliable and promote a over hyped narrative

Notre Dame won AT Arkansas by 43 points. A&M, Auburn, Miss State, and Mizzou won their road games vs Arkansas by a combined 29 points. USF won AT Florida. 7-5 Clemson beat SC on the road by more than Bama did. 6-6 WSU lost AT Ole Miss by 3 points. Does your breath stink from all the Bullshit your barfing up?

Because they play in the SEC every single week not just a couple times 😭. If the SEC is so bad you should bring these stats to the NFL. Let them know they’re drafting the wrong guys and the guys who only face an actual competitor every 4 weeks are super trustworthy to show up

Now that you mention it, Notre Dame produced more current NFL players than 13 SEC teams, and the second-most NFL draft picks all time, only second to USC

In the last 10 years 60-70 ND players have been drafted and over 500 SEC players have been drafted brother

That’s 16:1, no shit 16 teams are gonna produce more players than 1 team. However, 500/16=31.25, meaning the average SEC team produces half of the 60-70 players Notre Dane does

The SEC's dominance is particularly notable in the early rounds. Since 2010, the SEC has had roughly double the number of first-round picks compared to the next closest conference. In contrast, Notre Dame had only 5 top-10 NFL draft picks since 2009, compared to the SEC's 61 in the same period.

Again 16:1. 61/16=3.8. Notre Dame > average SEC team

Not like every single SEC team is getting a bid 😭. If you want relative stats that can be compared JOIN A CONFERENCE

Or stay independent and play every conference. That creates more H2H comparisons than playing 8 games in one conference, 3 bottom-tier G5 schools and 1 FCS school. 5-1 in the ACC, 1-1 in the SEC, 2-0 in the Big Ten.

I’m not upset about Miami getting in over ND. I’m upset about 10-3 Alabama getting in over ND.

But also this is what the big 10 and sec fight about every year. SEC is getting worn out playing good through great teams EVERY WEEK vs having a cupcake break 3 weeks straight throughout the season. Join. A. Conference. For relative comparison

Then join a conference. Play a conference championship. You just want 1 big giant conference? Because if the committee does that the conference championships go away. Ik you’re probably catholic but is it that difficult to use logic?

So Ole Miss’s stretch of 4-8 SC, The Citadel, 4-8 Florida, 5-7 Miss State is playing great teams every week? Notre Dame lost by less to A&M than all but 1 SEC team. Notre Dame beat Arkansas by more than every single SEC team. That seems like a solid comparison to me.

The comparison is you rest for 3-4 weeks at a time before a real game 😭

I can play the 0 logic game too. UT killed Tamu but lost to Florida. Therefore anyone who looses to TAMU is worse than Florida (Notre dame)

By that logic Bama is even worse. Florida beat FSU by 19, FSU beat Bama by 14. By that logic, Florida would beat Bama by 33. Florida beat UT by 9, UT beat A&M by 10, A&M beat ND by 1. Florida gets 20 to Notre Dame. 20<33. That still proves my point of ND getting in over Bama. Doesn’t matter what logic you use, Notre Dame belongs in more than Alabama.
