Guest Irish19 Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 I was just looking at it a little more in depth. This stuff is a bunch of BS. Texas is #2. I know V. Young is good, but all he has done is had one good game vs Mich. Washington got 4 votes, did anybody see them play last year? (This is OT, but does anyone else feel that Ty is trying much harder at U-Dub than he was at ND). Also, Duke got a vote. Wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SirJohn Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Irish 19 Washington got 4 votes? I agree with you much is BS. Which is intertesting that is two of the three letters in BCS Bowl. Oddly if anyone else was in place but Coach Weis and crew and we got ranked #41 I'd be chewing the carpet. Somehow Coach brings confidance and calm. Sort of "OK overlook us if you want at your own peril." We sure did not get any respect last year so it's earning it time. While having coffee this morning ole Coach Dan EMd me and asked if i was excited about the ND Washington game. I said if I had to miss 1 of 11 games that would be the one. Duke too? Your on the ball.

Guest IrishTobey Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 as much as i think this ranking is way too low based on last years performance it's probably pretty close. We lost to BYU, BC, Pitt, and only return 3 starters on defense and our coach has never coached a college game. From the outside looking in that's about where ND should be. If you follow the team closely like we do the ranking is a little low but based on last years performance it's right on. I feel the same way Sir John. Let them say what they want now but I can't help but feel things are going to change. I'm going to make a prediction right now. ND will be ranked when they play USC!!

Guest SirJohn Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Yep! In a way a 41 ranking is only a positive incentive for the Notre dame team. I'd prefer a team saying "Oh we are only playing a number 41 team," to another situation. It's all just too early to me meaningful unless a shrewd coaching staff uses it to their advantage. But that IS out there as a poll and nice report on it, otherwise why should anyone play a down of football? The winners and losers are already predicted. Sir John Let us know week two.

Guest IrishTobey Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Look at this way. Year and year out if any of us was as accurate at our jobs as these writers and reporters are at their jobs we would be FIRED!! They are sports wearthermen. If there is a great big green blob on the radar coming right at them they can predict the thunderstorm pretty accurately but other than that they are throwing darts.
