If the wins and win% lists are exactly the same, then including both seems sorta redundant, no?
I should double check that, I might have copied the same list twice.

When I was at UGA eons ago, the students knew which classes were, um, tailored for athletes.  One apparently was Geology 101, which I never took, another was Astronomy 101 which I did take, and could have made an A without studying on Day One.

Geology was termed "Rocks for Jocks", apparently the main professor was a big football fan.  I don't think that was the case for the Astronomy professor, he was entertaining though, and I attended his classes.  He had five true-false tests, and you got to drop one of them.  I made high 90s on the first four tests so I was technically done.

At one point, he complained about a student who earned a 37 and a T-F test.  So, I took the last test and intentionally tried to get everything wrong.  I never went back to class, I may have made a 3 or a 6.

I like that, combined with the whole relgation soccer thing.  

If you finish last in your division for 3 consecutive seasons, you're out.

The Irish are historically good, and they are also good now. Odd team to omit.

ND has really good records sometimes.  They haven't been an elite program since the early 90s.  They're 0-9 since then in top-tier bowl games.

They are certainly in much better shape than Miami, Tennessee, Nebraska, USC and Texas.

I'd agree that that's true, but I'm not sure it's fair.  ND doesn't have the annual schedule of any of them, either. 
.
But I may be nitpicking.

Folks like me have a "feeling" that ND plays a soft schedule and isn't really that good.  That feeling isn't exactly supported by facts.

Folks like me have a "feeling" that ND is too good for the rest of college football and too good to join a conference.  That feeling isn't exactly supported by facts.
