Does anyone really think that ND is all that great?
Oct 5, 2015, 2:49 PM

Not me. Yeah - they played lights out in a hostile environment, and their Oline and Dline are pretty darn good. But #6 before playing us? Really? I don't see it. They have yet to win any significant games, especially against any team that actually has a pulse.
Of course, I think CLEMSON should be ~ #10 myself, and ND should be 15-20.

I do. They have real athletes all over the field

and they could beat several other teams in the top 10 now.
They could beat us in different circumstances.
Don't sell this win short. It's a big one.

If you don't double tap them when you have the chance, they will crawl over and bite your ankle before it's all said and done.

Yes I think they are that good, I think they will be the best team we play all year unless we make the playoffs then I feel we will see a better team, but they had NFL talent all over the field, I could see them ending the year with 1 loss! I hope that is the case because that would really help us in the voters eyes!

I think ND is good, not great. I also think this year in the CFB landscape, there really isn't a team that's set themselves apart as being particularly great (like the '13 FSU team or some of Alabama's previous teams). Lots of good teams, no one team that's great - and we're right there in the mix of good, not great teams.
I will say one thing - that young QB they have.. He's going to be great. I wanted to hate him, I wanted him to choke.. But I came away with admiration for that kid. He played his @ss off in DV the other night - he by far exceeded anything I was expecting from him. That kid's going to be a force to be reckoned with for many years, mark my words.

Best Team Top to Bottom
Oct 5, 2015, 3:16 PM
|

we will face all yr. they are easily a top 10 to top 12 team. had they won and finished out undefeated, they would be the #2 seed and possibly be the #1 seed come playoff time. best d we will see. best oline we will see. best lb we will see. and best wr we will see.

No doubt ND is a great team

Best o-line we'll see this year. Great skill players....I think they'll win out the rest of their games. Had the won they'd be ranked #2 or #3 in the polls.
They're just not as good as us.

I think FSU is better. I don't know why people have been discounting them all season.

They're the best we play all year I think. It really helped us. I feel like we really grew up Saturday. D-line got a ton of confidence against a great OL, same with out LB and secondary against their receivers. And our OL did a pretty good job of holding up against their d@mn good front 7.

I don't think any team is great at this point. Rankings at this point are senseless. I view ND as a good team, but how good they are remains to be seen in my view. So far, they haven't played well on the road. They've done what they are supposed to do against inferior opponents. Both teams were impacted by the weather on Saturday, so I am not sure we learned as much as we thought we would about the two teams.
