   ND won the hth in a close game in south bend(and yes it was a close game at   
   the end.....perhaps if    
   ND had played the 4th qtr like they did the first 3 it wouldnt have been a   
   close game and they may have garnered more consideration), but the   
   *overwhelming* advantage FSU had over ND across the board when looking at the   
   rest of the schedule and results    
   more than made up for that.    
      
   This is false--- the controversy bit not the age bit.   A look at the rsfc   
   archives shows heated discussion similar to this year:  WVU was unbeaten and   
   had as many top 20 wins as FSU.   FSU's margins of victory were higher---   
   including against common    
   opponent Miami.   FSU stats were better.   Still, FSU lost to ND who lost to   
   BC who lost to unbeaten WVU.
