So how do you get ranked #2 as the three-time defending national champions when your record is actually better than the team ranked above you?

NH had a FBS loss, NDSU had a conf. loss. But they did have a FBS win, but that was Iowa state. ND has played one more game, same amount of losses. NH loss was earlier.

I have not heard anything on any of the major Sports Network coverage about non-D1 playoffs. I had forgotten they still played those games.
