re: What ranking would you give ND?

ND was carried by a stiff defense that seemed to come through often enough.

If Alabama can score 24 points and tie the TO margin I think Bama wins nearly every time.

ND offense does not impress me.

So rank them #1 until Bama shows they can play a good team without a billion Turnovers.

BTW, the TO margin in the UGA, Tamu, and LSU games were the daggers that nearly burried Alabama.
