My Harris Poll Vote - From the Bird's Nest

[VObserver]

VO, I don't think anyone was comparing ND to Alabama. An earlier poster was arguing ND "hasn't played anyone". The legitimate response was "neither has Alabama". In fact, most of the current top 10 "haven't played anyone". Alabama is #1 so far ahead of everyone else at this point... it really isn't fair to bring them into the debate. There is no other team in the top 10 that has proven a discernable difference in ability over Notre Dame. The polls are still in the mode of carryover from last year, expected ability, and current record/results. I have suspicions of several other programs in the top 10. Don't you?

J1M, I absolutely think that every team in the country except Alabama is suspect in one or more areas. That being said, I also firmly believe that ND would finish no higher than third in either division of the SEC, and could easily be 4th. They could not beat Bama or the tiggers in the West, and might lose one more besides to State [or a resurgent Arkansas]; and they could not beat Florida or South Carolina in the East, and probably not Georgia.
