1. has no bias toward conference, tradition, history, etc.,
(and, hence, has no pre-season poll),
2. is reproducible,
3. uses a minimum of assumptions,
4. uses no
ad hoc
adjustments,
5. nonetheless adjusts for strength of schedule,
6. ignores runaway scores, and
7. produces common sense results.
We still haven't beat anyone yet. Duke had a nice win vs ND but ND isn't looking all that good. State will be a very good measuring stick for us

I don't know if we can say we've beaten no one, and have State be a measuring stick for us, and have both statements be true.We still haven't beat anyone yet. Duke had a nice win vs ND but ND isn't looking all that good. State will be a very good measuring stick for us

how is Georgia even ranked at all?
Georgia is 3-1 with a win over UNC that looks like a borderline top 25 team. Their low top 25 ranking seems reasonable to me.
UGA deserves credit for the UNC win, but in addition to getting pounded by Ole Miss, UGA beat a bad Nichols State team by 2, and Missouri by 1. Overall, UGA has not played well since week #1.
I'll have a glass of what Jerry Palm is drinking! Seems pretty optimistic to me, but would be pretty amazing if it did happen!

Notre Dame's win over a struggling Syracuse team Saturday was enough for pollsters to continue their upward projections of the Irish, compared to winning ACC teams, The Irish (2-3) lost to Texas, Michigan State, and Duke. Each of those teams--after beating the Irish--went on to lose subsequent games. Following Notre Dame's loss to Texas, the Longhorns dropped 2 games, Michigan State loss two games, and Duke dropped one game to the Cavilers of UVA. However, today's bowl projections has the Irish (2-3) being awarded a more prestigious bowl game than, for example, Wake Forest (4-1).
Notre Dame is projected to play in Sun Bowl on December 30th, while Wake Forest is projected to play on December 27th in the Military Bowl. Each bowl had a 2015 payout of $2.1 and $1 million, respectively. Otherwise, by comparison, the Deamon Deacons of Wake Forest (4-1) defeated Duke and Indiana on the road, and has 3 ranked teams remaining on their schedule. The Irish (2-3) lost to Duke in South Bend, has one road win on a neutral site ( against Syracuse), and has only 2 teams on their remaining schedule that are currently ranked. ---
