Take the Test -- Rank the TEAMS in the Playoff
Well, the Notre Dame family has its IRISH UP!
We just saw our Fighting Irish drop from #4 to #6 -- with three teams jumping us this week in the CFB Playoff Rankings. Here's what happened Saturday to precipitate this change:
- #4 Notre Dame beat Boston College (3 - 8) 19 - 16 -- despite five turnovers
- #5 Iowa beat Purdue (2 - 8) 40 - 20 at home
- #7 Oklahoma beat TCU (9 - 1) 30 - 29 -- stopping TCU's two point conversion to win the game
- #9 Michigan State beat Ohio State (10 - 0) 17 - 14 -- last second FG
We keep hearing the term "body of work" -- so, here it is -- the body of work for each of the teams ranked #3 to #6 in the CFB Playoff Rankings. Now it's your turn to sit on the Committee. You rank the teams...
TAKE THE CFB PLAYOFF COMMITTEE TEST!
Rank these four "nameless" teams -- in order of #3 to #6. I'm willing to bet you that if you just use the body of work -- you won't see the Fighting Irish outside the TOP FOUR!
TEAM A 10 - 1
- FBS Opponents' Record: 69 - 59
- FBS Opponents with 8+ wins: 3
TEAM B 11 - 0
- FBS Opponents' Record: 53 - 68
- FBS Opponent's with 8+ wins: 3
TEAM C 10 - 1
- FBS Opponents' Record: 70 - 60
- FBS Opponent's with 8+ wins: 4
TEAM D 10 - 1
- FBS Opponents' Record: 73 - 58
- FBS Opponents with 8+ wins: 5
If you need "tie-breakers" to assist you in determining the rankings of these four teams -- here they are:
- Team D beat Texas 38 - 3
- Team A lost to Texas 24 - 17
- Team D beat Pittsburgh: 42 - 30 @ Pitt
- Team B beat Pittsburgh: 27 - 24 @ Home (on a last second FG)
Cheat Sheet: Team A is Oklahoma, Team B is Iowa, Team C is Michigan State and Team D is Notre Dame.
