Bull. ND got exposed for what they were. A fraud. They lived off publicity from the a loving ESPN and press all year. They barely beat Pittsburgh and that after Pitt blew a 20-6 lead and missed an OT chip shot FG. Pitt was mauled by an poor Ole Miss team in Birmingham bowl. Alabama was a superior team that handed the fraud their butts. Ta’O got shown for what he was, slow, and not able to handle those big OL or the Bama RBs. He will be a flop in the NFL.
Spot On 100% CORRECT! How does a #1 ranked team enter a Championship game according to the oddsmakers and as Herbstreit described them "a huge underdog" if not for a low information, biased press?
And a mediocre, at best, linebacker Te'O gets 7 awards and a runner-up to the Heisman Trophy ONLY because he played for ND.
Just proves what my Dad always said about ND: Notre Dame could put 11 paraplegic nuns in uniform and some asshat sportswriter would still rank them in the top 10.
