Notre Dame gets back on experts’ radar with big win over Florida State

Notre Dame linebacker Jack Kiser (24) lines up during a NCAA college football game against Florida State at Notre Dame Stadium on Saturday, Nov. 9, 2024, in South Bend.

Notre Dame moved up two spots in the AP Top 25 poll to No. 8 after beating Florida State 52-3. The Irish are back on some experts’ lists, too.

Joel Klatt now has the Fighting Irish as No. 10 in his top 10, while Danny Kanell has the Irish as number 9 in his top 12.

Klatt’s top 10 is: Oregon, Ohio State, Texas, Indiana, Tennessee, Penn State, Alabama, Ole Miss, Georgia and Notre Dame. He gave “almost” consideration to BYU, Miami (Florida), Boise State, SMU and Colorado.

For Kanell, his 12 are: Oregon, Indiana, BYU, Ohio State, Tennessee, Penn State, Texas, SMU, Notre Dame, Miami (Florida), Ole Miss and Alabama.

Notre Dame has played its way back into respectability in the experts’ eyes. Let’s see if they keep it that way.

Notre Dame tight end Mitchell Evans (88) jumps up to make a catch that would later be ruled incomplete during a NCAA college football game against Florida State at Notre Dame Stadium on Saturday, Nov. 9, 2024, in South Bend.
