GAME 7 ND @ 20 TAMU | 6:30CT | ABC

Why do all the Aggie defenders have numbers 20s or lower? I know it doesn’t matter in college but just seemed unusual
You’re right, no one wants those 90s anymore. Our guys vote on which ten honored players get the # 0-9 jerseys to wear and two of our D linemen are among them. In fact, 9 of the ten guys wearing single digit jerseys are on the defensive side.
 
OL will get better but Leonard is overrated.
They will. Leonard is over-rated. He has all the physical tools, but hasn’t put it together. That OL impressed me last night. A&M has a legit DL and the OL struggled for most of the game, but they battled through and looked solid in the 4Q. The OL will be much improved by November
 
If they’re undefeated there’s no chance they’d be seeded below a 6.

Let’s let the season pan out. FSU isn’t looking as competitive right now but that could change and who knows what USC will look like in November. If they’re ranked and ranked high and ND wins then that’s two road wins against top 25 teams. Gotta count for something.
It is definitely early in the season and no doubt we don't know how good teams really are yet. And it will definitely count for something if some of those opponents turn in good seasons. To a certain extent, teams seem to be more dependent on how well their opponents do throughout the season. Definitely so for your Irish since they also have to rely on who they draw out of the ACC each season.

I'm still not convinced the committee will reward SOS to the extent they've claimed. I really hope they do so it will incentivize better OOC scheduling. Some of those OOC games yesterday were really pathetic.

I guess if it breaks a tie over where teams with equal records should be seeded is where you place them. I think an undefeated ND team even with a watered down schedule would be seeded higher than a 1-2 loss team that ran a gauntlet of opponents.

I think they will too. Except for the first round bye issue, I think an undefeated Notre Dame will be viewed similar to an undefeated ACC or Big 12 team would be...sans the first round bye aspect. A "yeah they're undefeated but they didn't play a B1G or SEC schedule" point of view. It will be interesting how they treat 1, 2 and 3 loss B1G and SEC teams.
 
Jimbo would have at least 14.

Turns out, the ACC made Leonard AND Elko look better than they really are...
Lol, Leonard sucked before his injury last year. Elko has coached one game at Texas A&M. Should probably back off the cliff, but then again...that is part of your gimmick.
