24 FBS Teams Remain Undefeated After Week 4
I found this quite surprising -- that only 24 teams remain undefeated out of the 129 FBS programs -- with about 1/3 of the college football season completed.
Based on this week's schedule -- at a minimum -- there will be 3 fewer undefeated teams come this time next week...

Coaches Poll -- WOW -- We're Not Ranked...
I guess playing a tough opening schedule -- means nothing. Conference coaches are obviously banning together with their voting -- it's all about "conference playoff" money...
Look who's ranked ahead of Notre Dame right now:
- Florida State -- has 2 losses -- hasn't won a game this season
- Mississippi State got beat by 28 to Georgia -- last night
- There are 9 teams ranked ahead of ND with one loss or more

A Story You Must Read...
Former Notre Dame hockey player Riley Sheahan (currently with the Detroit Red Wings) crossed paths with a wonderful man in Grand Rapids five years ago...
Just a FYI -- there are rumors that Riley could be traded to the Stanley Cup Champion Pittsburgh Penguins -- any moment now -- which would reunite him with three former Notre Dame players; Bryan Rust, Ian Cole and Thomas DiPauli...
