At the outset of the season, an 11–1 record gave us a playoff shot. Not a lock, but a shot. After yesterday’s win, I don’t think that is the case anymore.
ND has to run the table to get into the playoff. 12-0 or bust.
First off, our remaining schedule doesn’t have a ranked opponent as of now. There is no way to recover from a loss should we stumble.
Second, there will be too many good conference champs with 0 or 1 loss.
SEC: Alabama is in unless they lose twice
How is Georgia not getting in?
B1G: OSU clear leader
Big 12: Oklahoma or WVU. One of them is likely to earn a spot.
ACC: Clemson looking shaky. A loss could knock the ACC out of the picture.
PAC 12: Out as of now.
I’m not stupid. I know the teams ahead of us will shuffle as teams lose. If we are 12-0 we’re in. It’s the 11-1. I just don’t think that gets us in anymore because that loss would be a bad loss no matter who it is anymore.
