We’ll take it, I guess

The current ESPN.com College Football Poll asks “Who is the most exciting team in college football today?” There are seven options to choose from, including all three Florida schools, Oklahoma, Northwestern, Washington… and Notre Dame. What in the world? I mean, we didn’t even play last week! Sure, our quarterback tribulations have been pretty interesting, but I don’t think anybody would argue that we’re more exciting than teams actually in the hunt for the national championship. It’s like they just threw us in because they needed another name people would recognize, while also giving the anti-ND crowd the satisfaction of seeing our name way down on the list. (We’re in 6th, ahead of Washington.) But again… WHY?
