Ah, the power of whipping Notre Dame in a bowl game to lead to lofty rankings the next year.


To be fair they had a great year. They tied for the PAC title. Getting over ranked the year after a good year happens all the time.

They had a great year. They were fantastic...maybe the fastest college football team I've ever seen.

Great receivers, running game, smothering defense. They played like an old Erickson Miami team. I don't think Notre Dame crossed the 50-yard line all game.

But they lost their two stud DE and I think that Notre Dame whipping clouded SI's judgment as to what was actually coming back. They had a hangover effect and weren't as talented the next year.
