After a 4-8 season last year, Notre Dame has now crept into the Top 25 after a Week 1 win over Temple. While in the AAC, Temple is a decent team and Notre Dame crushed them with a 49-16 score. However, ranking them already is akin to Notre Dame's lofty preseason ranking last year that turned out to be Fool's Gold. Maybe let the Fighting Irish validate themselves with a win over Georgia first before giving them the Top 25 rub.
