the last notre dame football post (for now)...

lots of interesting things happened yesterday, in addition to notre dame's masterful victory over michigan:

1) texas (#2)* beat ohio state (#4). good. OSU sucks. totally.
2) iowa state (unranked) beat iowa (#8).
3) other top ten teams won -- florida (#10), georgia (#9), virginia tech (#7), but played unranked opponents.
4) LSU (#5) won, against #15 arizona state.
5) USC (#1) didn't play. because USC is lazy. and by the way, USC has a totally weak schedule this year. and by the way, USC is totally weak.
6) tennessee (#6) also didn't play, but i don't mind tennessee, so i won't call them lazy or weak.

and next week? tennessee plays florida, which means more top 10 movement. and notre dame is obviously going to beat michigan state because (a) next saturday is my birthday, (b) the irish are playing at home for the first time this season, and (c) it's michigan state, for chrissake.

*all rankings are according to the AP Poll. BCS calculations are made using the USA Today Coaches Poll (among others), but i just don't like USA Today.

arbitrarily and capriciously,
