Why is Notre Dame a top 10 team?
People complain BYU hasn't beaten anyone, but whom has ND beaten?

Rice: an 0-3 AAC team that lost to Old Dominion
Michigan: a marquee name that otherwise is going to end up with a losing record. Sure the score looked impressive, but then Utah punched them in the month in Michigan.
Purdue: another team that will end up with a losing record. They lost to Central Michigan, a 2-2 MAC team, the week before losing to ND.
Next: Syracuse, a team that just got beat up by Maryland.

I get that ND gets a few votes for being ND, but they are about 10 places too high given their weak schedule to date. After they drub Syracuse they will probably rise even higher.

Stanford, Arizona State and Florida State should deflate their bubble.
