Earlier this year, the Fanhouse noted the relative vectors of Texas and Notre Dame, suggesting that if ND was as epically bad is they appeared to be at 0-4, a ten-win-or-so year from the Longhorns could result in Notre Dame losing its hallowed spot as the team with the second-most wins all time (#1 Michigan remains 40-some games ahead of both chasers):
As of now, the Longhorns are just four games behind Notre Dame for #2 all time. If Notre Dame goes 4-8, which looks like an absolute best-case scenario, Texas can pass ND if they go 13-1, which would require making the Big Twelve Championship game and either winning it or losing it -- not likely -- and winning their bowl game. If Notre Dame goes 3-9 or 2-10, things get considerably easier, ie: can-lose-to-Oklahoma-like-everyone-expects easier.
