Is it just me, but it seems that when Notre Dame starts to lose Notre Dame fans think they are smarter than everyone. Are they compensating?

All teams fans do that. They are out of it so they start telling other schools what they need to do to get fixed.

I don't understand how Ole Miss, FSU, and Oklahoma stay so high in the polls, even after two losses this early. Yeah, I realize it's a beauty contest, but still, lose two, you gotta earn your way back.

Benefit of the doubt for having to play tough schedules.

Why are you obsessed with ND?

I'm spinning it yet you're basing your entire opinion off of three games? Lol. That makes a hell of a lot of sense. You're just wrong about them last year. They were top 15 good last year too. Maybe even top 10. If you combine their defensive efficiency metrics it comes to 8.5.
Your mom's boobs are an 8.5

I dunno, I'm drunk. Go Tribe

Probably because they would easily be undefeated on a Boise St type schedule. You won't play a team as good as the teams they lost to all year.

I didn't realize that Worried, Charleston Southern and Monroe were considered a "tough schedule."

They arent, but having to play Ole Miss, Louisville... FSU and Bama... and Ohio state and Houston are. Its really not that complex of an idea to understand.

Nah Tennessee can't stay put after losing. Overtime loss or not. Say it with me now sec bias

Please...no USC fan should open their trap about poll bias...#20, lol, how's 3-3 taste. I feel fairly certain we won't lay 52 on Tennessee on Saturday.

Well certainly no "Benefit of the doubt for having to play tough schedules."

USC: #8

USC looked truly awful from the end of the second Qtr onward vs Alabama, and didn't look much improved vs Stanford. But two out of the three teams SC has beaten are getting more votes in the AP than they are. There is no doubt that SC has been a poll bias favorite before, but this season hasn't been one of them.

1 thru 5 look correct, though I might put THE at #1.

Hopefully, this week end we will help create an open space up at #9, then create another open space at #6 shortly afterwards.

Bullshit...you started the year #20 with a new coach and you are playing .500 ball, that is bias.
