Against the Top 10, Notre Dame was outscored 132-59 while outscoring all other opponents (Penn St being the only ranked team, 19th) 344-178.
Points scored against lower-tier teams averaged 34.4/game which is 10 points lower than given up to the Top 10 while points given up to lower-tier averaged 17.8/game, just shy of the 19.7/game average scored against the Top 10.
Even on the best days, against lowly UNC and Army (combined 6-18) they managed to not score, on average, as many points it would take to beat the likes of the Top 10: Michigan, USC and LSU.
And somehow they just lost their 9th straight bowl game and 2nd BCS game in a row. Amazing.
