Army is ranked #25 in the CFP Poll.

Undefeated, the only team nationally that hasn't trailed, and has won every game by double digits.

Indiana has the same resume: ranked #8.

What a farce.

Army has the same eye test and the ESPN analysts won't acknowledge.

The playoff is a gag.

They haven't played anyone. Who in the top 12 would you put Army over?

They'll have to beat Notre Dame and they will probably get in over a 3 loss SEC team.

Oh yeah, go Ducks.

I didn't want top 12. #20 would have been fine. #25 is insulting.

Ok. Who in the top 20 do you want to replace? I can't remember exactly the terms they were using, but it was strength of schedule and how much you beat them by. Army was way down in those metrics.
 
Aren’t they 18 in the AP poll?

Somewhere between the 2 seems fine.
 
If Army gets by the Irish it will be interesting to see who they play in a bowl game.

The Navy AD is on the committee.

Give me the BCS.

They're moved up from last week. What's the problem? You want to get into the playoff just to be embarrassed? Any of the teams in front of Army would destroy them.

I would take being in the playoffs no matter the result.

It would be an awesome experience over going to a random Bowl game.
 
Go Army

DAILY, A SENIOR captain, has been the face of this Army team, which has matched the best start in program history. The 1949 team, under legendary coach Earl "Red" Blaik, finished the season 9-0.

"Tough as s---," Monken said of the 6-foot, 221-pound Daily, who has been a battering ram at quarterback for Army's triple-option attack that leads the country in rushing (334.9 yards per game).

That description fits just about every player in a program that breeds brotherhood, and as Monken is fond of saying, is the "last of the hard," a throwback to the days before big money -- for blueblood programs, administrators, coaches and now players -- dominated the sport.

On the field, Daily takes Monken's "last of the hard" mantra to another level.

"Bryson wants to punish you," Army center Brady Small said. "He runs hard. He does everything hard, and what he does for us as a leader is just as important. When we see him lower that shoulder, whether it's for an extra yard or 2 yards, that's why we love him. It's never about him."

Meet Bryson Daily, the driving force behind Army's unbeaten season

The rugged Black Knights QB seems made for the moment as his team faces No. 6 Notre Dame at Yankee Stadium.

ASVAB though. He’ll never be able to learn an NFL system, which will be problematic if we ever want to run one of those.
 
Ward and Rourke starting their games out strong. Miami’s defense is so bad that Miami isn’t going to have a chance at any championships IMO.
