Some "Fun Facts" As We Wait for ND vs. USC
If you're watching College Gameday and hearing Desmond Howard question whether it's fair that Notre Dame may make the CFB Playoff without having to play a 13th game -- consider this:Should Michigan leapfrog Notre Dame if they win out?— College GameDay (@CollegeGameDay) November 24, 2018
Things got a little heated on the GameDay set. pic.twitter.com/UAbyjGceqc
#1 ALABAMA -- 10 wins over FBS opponents
- Played Louisiana-Lafayette and Arkansas State (game #2 and game #4)
- Played "FCS school" Citadel in game #11
- Biggest wins: #7 LSU, #18 Mississippi State, #22 Texas A&M
#2 CLEMSON -- 10 wins over FBS opponents
- Played "FCS school" Furman in their opening game
- Has beaten TWO TEAM in the CFB Playoff Top 25 Rankings
- Biggest win: #20 Syracuse and #22 Texas A&M
#3 NOTRE DAME -- 11 wins over FBS opponents
- Played #4 Michigan in their opening game
- Has beaten FOUR TEAM in the CFB Playoff Top 25 Rankings
- Biggest wins: #4 Michigan, #19 Northwestern, #20 Syracuse and #24 Pittsburgh
#4 MICHIGAN -- 10 wins over FBS opponents
- Played #3 Notre Dame in their opening game
- Has beaten TWO TEAMS in the CFB Playoff Top 25 Rankings
- Biggest wins: #12 Penn State, #19 Northwestern
Makes you wonder why Notre Dame is only ranked "#3" -- doesn't it!
I'm not questioning whether Alabama or Clemson deserve to be ranked ahead of Notre Dame -- they probably do, based on how impressive they have looked so far.
What I am arguing is this statement -- "it's not fair that Notre Dame doesn't have to play a 13th game."
We have played "big boy football" opponents every week -- Alabama and Clemson has not.
- Alabama played 12 games in 2017 -- they played in the 2017 CFB Playoff
- Ohio State played 12 games in 2016 -- they played in the 2016 CFB Playoff
- WE MUST BEAT SC TONIGHT -- or, it doesn't matter...

WIN and Notre Dame is CFB Playoff Bound!
The Fighting Irish are sixty minutes of football on the "left coast" -- away, from playing what looks to be Clemson in Miami on December 29th.
Here's the "fun fact" -- Notre Dame is the only team to beat FOUR teams ranked in this week's CFB Playoff Top 25 rankings...
In fact, there's no team that has beat more than TWO teams in the Top 25!

Three "Talking Points" for Notre Dame Fans!
To get you prepared for "work conversations" on Monday -- I've put together three talking points for all Notre Dame Football Fans to help us TELL OUR STORY!
JUST BEAT SC!
- Notre Dame is the only team in the country to beat 3 TOP 25 CFB Playoff Ranked Teams -- the only one!
- Notre Dame is the only team in the country with 11 wins over FBS opponents -- the only one!
- And, you don't need to play in a Conference Championship game to qualify for the CFB Playoff; Alabama played in last year's CFB Playoff without playing in the SEC Conference Championship Game.
JUST BEAT SC!
