Most P5 teams wouldn't get past Notre Dame with UC's schedule. Big Ten and SEC might have two or three teams that could beat the domes. Pac 12, Big 12 and ACC might have one team between them that could beat the Domers more than once in ten tries.

C'mon it's not the 20s/30s  there are at least two teams in every conference that could take the Domers out back.But couldn't handle their class load

If you are going to say that there are at least two teams in each the ACC, Pac 12 and Big 12 that could woodshed the domers then you need to list them, because I can't come up with any.

I'm guessing Oregon and Utah, and Pitt and Clemson "could" put a whoopin on the Domers

not sayin they would, but it's very possible

Well not the ACC which sort of proves the point Look at who they played this year,I think the Bearcats could run that gamut

the ACC is where the Domers belong

basketball, Lacrosse and football

keep them out of the playoff this season to help them make that decision

The real question. If Cincy, Michigan, Alabama, and Okie State lose...who ...?
Those yearning for an 8-team playoff become the winners.

So between the three conferences there are three teams that could maybe beat the Domers?

the Domers haven't proven to be good

Not really the Sunday bound guys have drawn a line in the sand.They gain nothing by prolonging the season while networks and Athletic departments line their pockets so when they sit you won't be getting the best squads.Keep it at 4

perhaps, but putting in the top 8, being (4) 2 loss helmets at 5, 6, 7, and 8 only maqkes it more likely the Big 10 or the SEC win the trophy

Sure, maybe.  That’s why we have to balance what we think with what we know.  I think there are teams that  could go undefeated with UC’s schedule, including the big one in South Bend. But I know UC did it.  I don’t have to wonder.
