quality of losses versus head to head.

Do They Weigh Good Wins (More Than Bad Losses)?

I seem to recall hearing Creme bring that up. And I also remember him bringing up that the NC loss might be considered in light of Jackie not being there.

However, ND didn't help that by then losing to Miami....

This is one of those times that I fall back on the old "...look at the next game in front of you" and take care of what you can.

We would have got away with one of those recent losses,

but not both. Now we will stay behind the top 5 teams ahead of us if they keep winning. You are correct, just win the next games ahead of us and hope for the best. Lat year the team reacted well when less was expected of them. Maybe now with the lower Seed we may catch the same magic again. Lots to be played still.
