Gameday choose the ND game over the LSU game. Very telling from the onset especially since the game is on freakin NBC.

ESPN does not broadcast mundane weekly press conferences but they did yesterday with ND. (not ESPNU, ESPN on Sportscenter - a LIVE broadcast)

Herbie and Fowler do not like teams scheduling non-AQ schools, they have said so several times now.

LOL at you denying the medias influence.

All because ND was 4-0...

Now 5-0 and Gameday for Stanford.

If ND keeps winning and beats OU...the media (especially non-CFB Northeastern Media) are going to go gaga...as Notre Dame is the only team they know or care about...and Beano Cook will be on every show reminding us about some game in 1966.

This is only the second time Gameday has been to ND...the other, 2005 #9 ND against #1 USC.

I'm telling you, Notre Dame being relevant gives general sports writers and media heads a reason to talk about college football.

If USC and ND win out...November 24th in LA will be absolutely insane...and the latest Game of the Century.

They did South Carolina last week and LSU is coming off a loss. The did SEC games that were on CBS before. If LSU-USCe was 3 v 4 that would be different.

I'm not denying the media influence, I'm saying its not 100% all encompassing like you suggest. sorry, that you can't see things that are not black and white.

Alabama got hype last year, but OSU still got votes. The AP poll the difference was 18 points. The BCS was the closest margin under the current formula which started in 2004. The computers favored OSU.
