Notre Dame football just moved up one spot in the US LBM Coaches Poll. They were initially ranked No. 5, and after a dominant 41-13 victory over the Wisconsin Badgers on Sunday evening, that single jump means the top of college football is about to get shaken up.
That Win Felt Good
Yeah, one spot might not sound like much, but when you’re already sitting at No. 5, every inch matters. The Irish absolutely rolled over Wisconsin with that 41-13 final score, a true statement win to kick off the season. That performance, combined with Oregon taking a tumble down the rankings, pushed them up a notch.
Week 2 Is Going to Be WILD
Now, here’s where it gets crazy. This coming weekend is going to be HUGE for the Coaches Poll. The No. 1 team, Ohio State, is squaring off against the No. 3 team, Texas, in what is definitely a highly anticipated Week 2 battle. Georgia is right there in the middle, and Indiana is rounding out the top-5 right at No. 5. You know there’s gonna be some serious movement after that monster game.
With Ohio State and Texas set to clash, there’s no way the top of the poll stays static. Notre Dame is sitting pretty, waiting for the dust to settle, and you gotta feel good about where they’re positioned right now. This is just Week 2, and it’s already heating up!
