We’re Number 5!

When you’re searching for the Holy Grail there’s no silver medal for second place.
When you’re trying to reach the College Football Playoff there’s no prize for being five.
My beloved Fighting Irish of Notre Dame have the unfortunate distinction this year of being fifth place in a four-team race for the national championship.
My first thought was, no way Cincinnati should be in, I bet they didn’t beat a ranked opponent all year!

Actually, no, Cincinnati topped Notre Dame in October.
And the Irish didn’t beat a ranked opponent all season.
