But make no mistake, the committee is absolutely railroading Notre Dame.

Wisconsin is 10-2 and lost to Illinois and got drilled by Ohio St. and the Badgers are #8.

Notre Dame is 10-2 and lost to #4 Georgia by 6 on the road and got drilled by #14 Michigan and the Irish are #15.

Here's what Mullens said about the Badgers being ranked #8: "Three wins over Top 25 teams, losses to Ohio State and "close loss" to Illinois. "We see them as a balanced team."

Guess who else has three wins over Top 25 teams? Notre Dame does. And they damn sure didn't lose to a team like Illinois - yet Wisconsin is sitting there seven spots higher.

So yeah, ND's reputation in the eyes of the committee is clearly in the shitter.
