    The only way ND gets in over them is if the human voters purposely push KSU down to offset the formula.

    Agreed, or even more. Computer polls may have their flaws but at least they don't consistently tend to favor the exact same teams year after year like humans can do with their own biases.

    KSU is the better resume. Notre Dame if they get the nod will get there not because they deserve it more than an undefeated KSU team, but because the media has a massive hardon for notre dame.

    Alabama is not losing a game this season. They will roll over whoever they play in the title game.

    I guess we shouldnt bother playing it then, and while we're at it we should roll another SEC team in there as well so that no other conference has to risk playing them.

    Suppose our 6 point loss to KSU screws their ranking so ND edges them. Will they blame us?
    Looking forward to CFH magic for the next bball season, Georges style.

    Re: BCS decision: 12-0 KSU vs. 12-0 ND

    Kansas State will NOT play in the national championship game if two other undefeated teams are available. ESPN alone will make sure of it. The mighty dollar speaks above all else. Kansas State television ratings are terrible compared to Oregon, Alabama, and especially Notre Dame. If Iowa State ever runs the table in football, the Cyclones could find themselves in the same situation and even lose out to a one loss team in a four team play-off. Money talks; all else is only noise.

    Completely agree. They will find a way to screw KSU out of it somehow, to get ND in. And I am no ND hater.

    Lou Holtz had ND #2 and K State #4. That's how you get ND in the title game.
