I'm not sure if it's because everyone loves the Irish or not... but wasn't it written into the BCS model at one point (for the BCS bowls) that was the top conference winners + ND (if they had a 10 win season) that made the top BCS rankings. I know they don't (might not) do it anymore, but there was some extra love for ND because they remained an independant (and still choose to stay that way).

They did have that clause, not sure if they still do though.

ND plays teams that tend to be tough each year, with a few that are pushovers every year. But how is that different from any other team in the country? Every major program in the country schedules some pussy D-1A or D-1AA teams that they can beat the shit out of every single year. So I don't wanna hear an shit about ND having a cupcake schedule, they're no different than any other team in the country.
