Guys I'm not an expert pollster but if its week 3, and 2 teams have two identical records and played each other and you have the loser ranked higher, you have failed.

PSU above OSU

Laughable @theSabanator20

I don't know what's worse having PSU or ND above Ohio State? That's pretty awful right there. Ohio State would beat our ass by 3 plus TD's and probably do the same to PSU. And there's the whole Ohio State has a better win than both. Both eye test and results should conclude there is no possible way to justify that.

I think ND only gets better as the year moves on. Wimbush is my only worry.

I think there's a good chance we lose our next 3 in a row. Unless Vandy turns out to be a 8/9 win team, that is actually good. But I doubt that. Wimbush is awful. He can't throw and has Happy feet. Not a good combination.

I doubt Wimbush finishes the year as the starter

The sad thing is I think he's better than Book and Jurkovec probably isn't ready. Jurkovec is the best prospect, but he needs to add some weight on him. The sad thing is our schedule sets up alot easier than it looked at the beginning of the year. And we won't be able to capitalize on it because we aren't very good.

Book wasn't lighting the world up last year, but Wimbush is so awfully bad at throwing the ball. He has 1 TD and 4 INTs through 3 games, two of which are against bad teams. That's inexcusable. I can't imagine Book is worse.

Book is more accurate (not saying much) but he's overall, just not a great option. The only good thing about Wimbush is he's a great athlete, which comes in handy because our O line hasn't been good.

Penn State destroyed Pitt on the road and Kent State. App State was a warmup for Pitt, they likely didn't prepare too well for that game. App State is a respectable foe and has beaten and put up many fights vs. P5 opponents, this is well known.

Ohio State dropped 31 pts to the worst P5 team west of the Mississippi River in Oregon State, and beat TCU in a virtual road game. Dropping 31 to Oregon State is worse than dropping 38 to App State, in my opinion.

TCU>App State
Pitt>Oregon State
Kent State>Rutgers

Penn State 2-1 in SOS

Nothing is wrong with Michigan at 13... They lost by 7 on the road to an undefeated ND team in a renewed, huge rivalry game with a new QB who's been on campus barely over a month.
