moistats_ 3 The next two are Notre Dame and Wisconsin. Notre Dame has much better wins (mostly because of Michigan). Hopefully, Ball State turns out to be a top G5 team.

T-Thugs 4 Notre Dame looked sluggish against Ball State, but their win over Michigan is a good one. Michigan dominated their opponent this weekend.

tdeff19 8 Very little separates ND with Stanford @ #8/9. Compared ND (H) win over a poor Michigan team against Stanford with a (H) win over a poor USC team.

woakley 8 Notre Dame drops a spot here. They didnt lose, but they certaintly didnt dominate Ball State like they should have. They only drop one spot, but if they continue to struggle they will continue to drop

311polo 9 They dropped a few spots from last week due to small margin of victory over Ball St.

GenialGiant 10 Let's be clear, an eight-point win over Ball State is a poor performance for a top team, and Notre Dame suffers as a result.

jmac_21 10 ND dropped a few spots for me. Beating Ball State at home by 8 is... Not great. ND will be fine. It seems like they always randomly struggle with a bad team here or there.

A-Stu-Ute 11 The Irish turned it over 3 times, and Ball State had more first downs. The game was never really in question but I expected more against the Cardinals.

CarbonCamaroZL1 11 Moving back due to barely beating Ball State at home. Need to be more convincing. The offense looked horrible. Starting to wonder if the Michigan/ND game was a fluke... Might be a bit exaggerated but Washington, LSU and Stanford all have better resumes.-3

stripes361 11 Wimbush has not impressed me so far. Ball State is a terrible team as well and I'm still a little tentative on the exact value of the Michigan win.
TanzaniaMagic 11
TheFlyingBoat 11 A commanding win over Michigan set the Fighting Irish up well to join the list of contenders for the playoffs. The play the showed on the field against Ball State and somewhat at Michigan too doesn't though. Wimbush sucks donkey balls and it's hard, but not impossible to succeed without a good QB. Maybe Wimbush finds himself sitting and they find a good QB by accident? Stranger things have happened and the rest of the team looks really, really good despite coming out flat against a mediocre Ball St. team. Trust in Te'von Coney. If they had a real QB, Notre Dame probably could be 4th right now.

RatherBeYachting 16 A Notre Dame fan didn't think I was being fair to them for criticizing their 2.8 rushing average against a touch Michigan defense. Asked if I would be impressed if they rushed for 400 yards against Ball State. I would have been impressed, except they averaged 2.9 YPC again. Brandon Wimbush now has 1 TD and 4 INTs on the year.
