Irish crack top 10 in AP poll
Notre Dame is a top-10 team for the first time in three years, and Southern California has matched Miami for the longest stay at No. 1 in The Associated Press Top 25.Charlie Weis’ Fighting Irish are No. 10 in the AP media poll released Sunday, jumping 10 spots after upsetting Michigan 17-10 on Saturday to improve to 2-0.
“I think too many times rankings are based off of reputation, not off what really happens,” Weis said Sunday when asked if he thought he had a top-10 team. “So maybe if you go by what you see, maybe the answer is yes. I’m not there to judge that.”
