Edit: that said if I was a ND fan I'd be Georgia superfan #1 right now. They have a slight chance against them maybe but against Bama? Shoot they wouldn't need to bother playing the game, just crown Bama now.

Give me a break. You could say that about almost any team in any year who goes undefeated. They're not all going to be pretty and you're going to need to catch breaks here and there but the bottom line is that at the end of the game, if you have 1 more point than the other team, that's all that matters.
Also, wtf has Georgia done that is so impressive? They've played 2 ranked teams and got smashed by one of them. There 1 signature win is against Florida on a neutral field. That's why I want ND to play Bama. To be the best you have to beat the best and what better way to stop the SEC streak then to beat the defending champs.
But if somehow Notre Dame miraculously beats the big bad Alabama Crimson Tide, the haters will still find a way to make it less about Notre Dame and more about how Alabama wasn't at their best, it's their rebuilding year so the Irish caught them at the right time bla bla bla.
It's fine though cause the Irish are playing with house money anyway. At the beginning of the year everyone said with their schedule, they'd be lucky to win 8 games. Well were 11-0 and 1 win away from an undefeated regular season. When you got the #1 scoring defense in the country, I like my Irish's chances against anyone.
But here's a fun fact that even the haters can respect and acknowledge.
Notre Dame is the first school in BCS history to be ranked #1 in the BCS standings and #1 in graduation success rate.
Pretty awesome that you can play elite football and still receive your diploma at one of the most prestigious schools in the country.
GO IRISH!
