[QUOTE="SOWEGA Jacket, post: 1001509, member: 4334"] You guys aren’t seeing that the entire paradigm has changed, yet you are using old thinking. They will get in whatever teams they want in. Throwing records around is a fools errand and is no longer a variable. Just ask FSU. Yes, teams with 2-3 losses will get in because they will simply rank them higher in the polls and give us reasons as to why, and just like in the FSU scenario, many posters here will agree. It’s the same reason we always see teams with 1 loss in October and November ranked behind 2 loss teams. ND has no need to join any conference. In years they are good they will be pushed up in the polls by the TV execs and a similarly situated teams like an Arkansas or Georgia Tech will be pushed down to make room. They just pushed down an undefeated team to make room for two 1 loss teams and since it worked so well with zero pushback they’ll gladly push down 1-2 loss teams for 2-3 loss teams that TV wants. This is exactly why no other sport uses a polling system, otherwise the NBA Finals and Super Bowl would always be a NY team vs. a Cali team. [/QUOTE]
