Last season during the college football playoff run, ESPN College Gameday personality Desmond Howard was involved in a heated exchange with Chris “The Bear” Fallica, the show’s research producer, because Howard suggested that a one loss Michigan team should leapfrog an undefeated Notre Dame team in the top four standings. Fallica and Notre Dame fans alike took umbrage with Howard’s stance, because the Michigan’s one loss came at the hands of Notre Dame.
When Fallica called Howard out for his stance, Howard doubled down telling Fallica “You put too much weight on that one game. I look at what they have done since.
