I'm surprised Alabama even got in after getting throttled.

Oh wait, no I'm not.

The biggest head scratcher is Tulane-Ole Miss. Ole Miss stomped them earlier this season. I almost think the committe is throwing OM a bone.

I'm happy ND got left out. I may go to the Miami/A&M contest, I haven't decided.

I'm happy ND is left out as well.

I think Miami and A&M matchup pretty evenly. It should be a fun game to watch.

I don't get the dislike of Notre Dame.

A lot of old (and I mean old) OU fans seem think that Notre Dame should have lost on purpose on 16 November 1957, when the Irish stopped OU's 47-game winning streak. And a goodly number of redneck OU fans hate Notre Dame because it's a Catholic school.

Obviously, not everybody who dislikes Notre Dame is motivated by those two factors. Heck, the B1G board is full of Notre Dame-haters, and they don't mention those reasons.

I'm not a Catholic, but I've always liked Notre Dame, despite their 9-2 all-time record against us. I start every countdown to bowl season hoping that OU will play the Irish in a big bowl game. We need to work on that W-L record.

I was really looking forward to OU hosting ND in the 8/9 1st-round CFP game.

Here's a good place to start:

Here's a good place to start:

[img width=500 height=296.989]https://i.imgur.com/QLCOLgb.png[/img]

They started at #6, as the defending NCG-runners-up.

They lost to #10 Miami by 3 points and fell to #9.

They beat Open Date and rose to #8 because #8 Alabama got beaten by unranked Florida State.

Then they lost to #16 Texas A&M by 1 point and fell to #24.

That retrograde progression seems normal.

Auburn, Missouri, and USC started the season unranked. They each had played 2 patsies and a middling P4 team at the time of that poll. Maybe they didn't get enough credit for that. But Purdue, Baylor, and Kansas--the 3 middling teams--didn't impress anyone.
