First of all, I'm not a Notre Dame hater. If it weren't for MSU, Notre Dame would be my school (despite my hatred for Weis). But I just don't get ND and I'd love for somebody to clear it up.
For those that followed them last year, they were 1 play from being a 5 win team. If you watched the Navy game, they were a play from beating ND and that would have kept ND out of the bowl. They win however and then get a gimmee bowl game against a joke Hawaii team (now that their spread guru is gone).
So how on Earth does a near 5 win team all of a sudden become some power in the media this year? I get that they return 11 starters on offense and something has to be said for returnees. But that takes them from being a near 5 win team to a National Title contender. I believe they are a good team because of the returning guys and other teams losing people. But National Title contender? I'm callin' BS, the media loves to love ole Notre Dame.
