The Michigan game is the one that gets me. Notre Dame fans view that as a dominant performance. But the Wolverines led in yards and time of possession, converted more and a better percentage of third downs and lost by one score while throwing five interceptions. Take back one of those passes and it's a completely different ball game. Great defenses dictate play. The Fighting Irish prevent touchdowns, sure. But where are the three-and-outs? Where is the field position? Where are the defensive touchdowns?

Jeff Sagarin and at least one or two other BCS computer programmers have argued against eliminating margin of victory. It produces a flawed result that often is showed clearly by season's end in bowl games and such. Interestingly, Sagarin's real ratings:

1. Alabama
2. Kansas State
3. Oregon
4. Texas A&M
5. Notre Dame
6. Florida
7. Oklahoma
8. Georgia
9. South Carolina
10. LSU

Aaah, yes.The same Sagarin real ratings that have Ohio State ranked one spot behind a Nebraska team they hung 60+ on & beat by 25.

I like to think of Jesus like with giant eagle's wings, and singin' lead vocals for Lynyrd Skynyrd with like an angel band and I'm in the front row and I'm hammered drunk.
