nickknx865	13	That one point loss to the Georgia Bulldogs doesn't look so bad in hindsight. They've looked pretty decent, and I think that it's fair to say that this squad isn't going to go 4-8 again.

WhiteBaseCoat	13	PLRCOAT: 5.875. ND is also probably a little too high for most people's tastes, but they've got a fine resume. 1-pointer Temple, 2.75 Michigan State, and 2-pointer BC is nice and consistent and enough for a top-15 spot.

stripes361	19	Michigan State is not as great a win this year as their "brand" would indicate but Notre Dame is two points away from a 4-0 start with wins against several solid opponents. They've looked dominant in their three wins. Overall, this is a highly talented team that has the potential to put together a very good season.

Knightro2011	20	The Fighting Brian Kelly's have been all over the place as far as yards and such, but the consistency they have had: play really well against the bad teams and "eh" against the others. Against Temple and BC: over 600 yards in each game, at least 7.8 yards per play in each game, and over a TD per trip inside the opponents 40.Notre Dame did do that last part well against Michigan State and had almost 6 yards per play in that game, but the Georgia game was ugly. 265 offensive yards, a success rate of 20%, and 3.17 points per trip inside opponents 40.

Ghost_of_Dude	21	Suddenly a single point loss to Georgia is looking like a #QualityLoss, and they've thrashed every other opponent, including Boston College, a team that just kept it close with Clemson until a 4th quarter collapse. Though to be fair, they never fell far behind the Irish until the 4th either, but still, this is a very favorable comparison. Also helps that the computers still love this team
