Stanford deserved to lose this game. :depressed: They could not defend Notre Dame on their last drive. Then Stanford could not move the ball in the games final possesion. They wasted a 3rd down w/a spike ball, and then a 4th down sack w/ a 3 man rush is inexcuseable. :whazzup: :crazy:

They do however take into account the records of the opponents in thier ratings. ND lost to a 5-6 Michigan State, and barely won against a 5-6 Stanford. I can only hope they don't jump over the Ducks in the BCS. :crazy:
ND has gotten thier 9 wins over teams with a combined 42 victories. Ohio State has thier 9 wins over teams with a combined 50 victories. Oregon has 10 wins over teams with a combined 52 wins. Seems to me the Ducks are the most deserving team to go to the Fiesta Bowl. :applause: :applause: :applause:

Take a look at the AP & USA Coaches polls. The Ducks dropped to 8th, :bricks: w/ ND @6, and Ohio St. @ 7th.
