Exactly. That only furthers my argument. Notre Dame is currently 71(!) in the RPI. Their NCAA credentials are as follows......
Record: 11-6
Record vs. Top 100: 2-5
Record vs. 100+: 9-1
One of their two top 100 wins is quickly diminishing in significance given their recent slide: Georgetown. They also already have a 'bad' loss against St. Johns. In addition, one of their wins is not counted for RPI and NCAA bid consideration. There's absolutely nothing about that resume in its current state that even suggests anything more than a bubble team, though even that is questionable given the RPI of 71.
