I love seeing mdot shit on the #6 team in the country in poo-pooing LSU.

LSU is not the #6 team in the country. They are the #14 team in the country. 

And after today they'll be lucky to be like #22-25.

yeah except TCU had a harder schedule than Ohio State. TCU had the best strength of schedule of every team ranked in the top 5. They played I want to say 6 games vs teams currently ranked in the top 25. I think the next closest was Georgia with 4.

Ohio State's schedule was not extremely difficult. The B1G was pretty damn bad this year outside of the top 3 teams. Ohio State played 2 really good teams- Michigan and Penn State- and they got their doors blown off at home by 3+ touchdowns by one of those 2 teams- and that team was missing it's best player on offense and best player on defense.

Spare me the oh they played ND in non-con! ND is straight garbage. ND got beat down by that soft no defense playing USC team that just got their doors blown off by Utah. ND lost at home to freaking Marshall and they lost at home to a dreadful 3 win Stanford team. ND has been terrible vs every team that isn't in the ACC. That tells you all you need to know about how truly awful the ACC is.
I fully agree- TCU should be in, and at # 3.

Just want clarify that Ohio State beat ND by the exact same margin as USC- back when ND had their starting QB.

I never sh*t on Bama though. Only sh*t on LSU.

Bama is a solid top 10 team this year, but they aren't your typical Bama team. Not even close. They just don't have the DUDES they used to on the lines of scrimmage or the elite players at WR. Bryce Young is the best player in all of CFB and he just makes it work and gets them Ws.

I know. I'm just saying I don't find it that impressive. Like, I feel like that's what OSU should've done to ND. OSU punked ND in the 2nd half.

ND is not a good team. They have been terrible vs every team not in the ACC. That's not a coincidence. The ACC is straight garbage. Put ND "half-in" the B1G or PAC and they might not even be .500. Shoot they struggled like hell to beat an awful Cal team, they lost to a putrid Stanford team, and USC's no defense playing pansy asses punked ND.

It was pretty obvious that the SEC West was unusually weak this year.  If it weren't LSU today, then Georgia would be stomping Alabama or Ole Miss or whoever.  I don't see anything strange about pointing that out.

I also feel like Ohio State played very conservatively against Notre Dame,
Not really knowing how good they were and feeling like they had a pretty strong defense. Plus I think it threw them off a little bit because they had built a good chunk of their game plan around Jackson Smith-Njigba, who only had 4 touches before leaving the game.
