They are not exactly killing Navy. The ranking system is a joke. Is there any site that continues to have the old BCS rankings for comparison's sake? Would like to see how it compares to the "unbiased" committee.

No joke, but with so many teams there are few other options

Triple option teams give everyone trouble. Even if Notre Dame is bad, this isn't the game to point it out.

Would one of those options be the old BCS system?

People always assume that 10-25 is full of great teams without weakness. The reality is that I haven't really been impressed with anyone this year. Last year Florida State impressed me the whole way through. There is nobody like that this year.

They haven't beaten anyone worth a damn. Close wins over a lot of shitty teams.

A 64 team playoff would be ideal, but absurd.

16 team is too much.

8? I could get behind that with a removal of conference championship games.

Support this. Don't mind keeping Conf Championship games.

None of it makes sense to me. Navy is awful and they are giving the "fighting Irish" all they want.

Look at Navy's W/L this year. Is that not an "argument"?

They played everyone close in 2012 but kept beating everyone. And they beat some good teams that season.

Notre Dame just plays close games. But they win.

LSU does the same under Miles.

Outside the top 4 obviously. They are not anywhere near the level they were last year. Last year's FSU team skull dragged teams.

I think they have to be removed to make the 8 team playoff work. Plus, if the conference game is worth it they will meet up in the playoff.
