No, James Madison and Notre Dame are not bad losses. JMU is currently ranked 10th and ND is 15th which is one spot below UVA who is 14th. Michigan is ranked 21in one poll and 20 in the other so not a bad loss. Vanderbilt and Virginia Tech are not ranked so those wold be considered bad losses. Virginia did not have any bad losses. Both teams (UVA & ND) are 9 - 9 but Virginia's schedule was a little more difficult. Notre Dame's best win was against Duke, Virginia's best win was against Syracuse. Considering the fact that Virginia didn't feel the need to manipulate their schedule and the system by scheduling a non competitive game in order to ensure a tournament bid I will go with Virginia. Notre Dames underhanded move does not instill confidence that there is a lot of integrity in South Bend.
