Nutriaitch Posted December 21, 2020 Author Share Posted December 21, 2020 note: the above is not a true simulation because the Harris Poll no longer exists to be applied to the formula. This website uses the AP in its place, which is not exactly the same obviously, but in theory would be relatively close as it always was in the past.

Nutriaitch Posted December 21, 2020 Author Share Posted December 21, 2020 looking at just the computers, ND is ranked ahead of A&M in 4 of the 5 that are publicly available. the low and high scores are thrown out, meaning of the ones we see, A&M would not be ranked ahead of any computer poll used toward their ranking. they also rank behind the Irish in the AP, the coaches, CBS sports poll, ESPN power poll, Billy Bob’s bait & muffler shop poll, etc. etc. etc. Suck it Aggy!

The BCS computers were the best friend the SEC ever had. I would not be surprised if the humans picked ND because they thought it was close with A&M, but they thought the tv ratings would be better with ND. It used to be that "losing late" in the season was the kiss of death. ND beat a top 5 team in Clemson (without Trevor Lawrence), then got killed in the conf. championship when Clemson had Lawrence. A&M has been improving week by week. Who is the better team late in the season, I would go with A&M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not be surprised if the humans picked ND because they thought it was close with A&M, but they thought the tv ratings would be better with ND. it’s 100% false. ND is ranked ahead of A&M in: AP, Coaches and CFP human polls. Sagarin, Colley, Billingsley, & Anderson computers. Aggy is ranked ahead in: Massey Computer. Not reporting (as of earlier today): Wolfe computers. so 7 of 8 know polls favor ND. 15 minutes ago, houtiger said: It used to be that "losing late" in the season was the kiss of death. changing that was one of the goals of this new system. the date the game was played should not weigh as heavily as it did previously. 15 minutes ago, houtiger said: ND beat a top 5 team in Clemson (without Trevor Lawrence), then got killed in the conf. championship when Clemson had Lawrence. DJ (however you spell his last name) had more passing yards, same TDs, fewer int, and a higher passer rating against ND than Trevor Lawrence did. QB was absolutely not the reason Clemson lost that game earlier this year. 15 minutes ago, houtiger said: A&M has been improving week by week. Who is the better team late in the season, I would go with A&M. ND would beat A&M by at least 2 scores. as would the rest of the playoff teams.

Hatchertiger Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I'd say A&M would beat ND right now. But in the SEC West, the surest bet to get to the NC game is to beat Alabama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
