Posted October 3, 20213 yr I kind of thought we would drop lower. This sucks. If we had last year's team this season we would be sitting pretty. Shit, if we just had last years OLine this season we would be sitting pretty.
October 3, 20213 yr With no OL or QB, we don’t seem like a top 25 team, but many other teams are also scuffling on offense.
October 3, 20213 yr I think 20-25 should be reasonable if that. These polls show way too much bias on preseason rankings. I wish AP would freeze pre-season poll for 4 weeks and not re-rank anyone until October. There are two power 5 teams ranked behind ND: Kentucky and Wake Forest who are much better than ND right now. Along with a host of 1 loss teams that are way better than ND: Ole Miss Auburn Texas Arizona State NC State. I guess it doesn't matter anyways since they have no say in the poll that actually matters.
October 3, 20213 yr If Wake Forest has more talent and is much better than us, we’ve got major problems. Edited October 3, 20213 yr by nd2000

Got to have teams somewhere. So I guess they figure ND lost to a top 10 team and shouldn’t drop that much. We’ll get our due as the season progresses.
October 3, 20213 yr We’re also low enough that the next game (Virginia Tech) is being broadcast on the ACC Network, rather than real television Edited October 3, 20213 yr by TexasDomer
