Bowl Options?

[perseverare]

I think the Entropy Bowl has an alliance with the
Cal Tech vs MIT signed up

According to my math (I believe in the Chaos theory and Chaos in college football) Notre Dame will definitely make the playoff if they win out and go 11 and 1.
I doodled a little algorithm while I was watching the Memphis Tulsa game and plugged in my college football teams wins losses and stats and injury charts yada yada yada (I don't want to bore you all) and I came out with a 11 and 1 Irish team making the playoff at a 99.8 percentile. Just win baby !!! 13 and 1 !!!

ND should never join a conf. It is an idiotic thought for losers that dont understand the national exposure ND gets by NOT being in a conf.

Cal Tech vs MIT signed up

My math does not lie !!! The Irish are going to the playoffs !! And winning both playoff games !!!

Go Irish !!
13 and 1 baby !
Win it for Cecil!!!

Ara you are getting into the Bodi stratosphere with those projections. If ND wins out, their strength of schedule will be very hard to ignore. I think:

Temple...10-2
Stanford...11-2
Pitt...8-4
Navy...10-2
Wake...4-8
Va...4-8 maybe 5-7
Mass...1-2 wins, ...2-10
Texas...4-5 wins....5-7
BC....5-7 to 6-6
Ga Tech...5-7 to 6-6
Clem....11-1

79-56 That's nearly a .600 win%

If Clemson beats Fla St (an upset imo) they only need to face basketball powers NC, Duke, or Pitt to win their football conf. championship.

In effect, ND can boast playing many teams that play in that conf. championship. Pretty good possibility of:

1. ACC...Clemson/Pitt
2. Temple may play Navy (AAC) in their conf. championship (however, Memphis and Lynch are too good imo and Houston is there)...but...
3. PAC12...Stanford will be conf. champion (imo).
4. Then you have Texas beating (#6 at the time) Oklahoma.
5. What if today, Ga Tech beats Fla St in their home game (today)? Then Fla St goes to Clemson later, and wins?


We all know and have stated a 2-pt loss, away game, to a current rank #6 team, in a hurricane, dropped 2-pt conversion yada yada. No one mentions that Clemson also had a bye week to prepare for the Irish.

A 1-loss ND SOS looks pretty strong. Close to .600 winning percentage. And they (ND) played 5 teams involved in a conf. championship? And the stated above (wish scenario #s 2 and 5) happen?

If it does all happen, I think they're in.

1. Baylor
2. Ohio St (by default of being defending champs albeit, undefeated and weak SOS)
3. LSU
4. ND

As frustrating as it is hard to believe (with the perception, and real perception that the ACC is weak) it will be the ACC champ that could keep ND from the playoffs. Even though in '93 when ND beat Fla St, H2H, they awarded good ol bobby bowden the championship. I hope they make that mistake again.

Fla St was in over their head last year (as Oregon proved, as well as ND and that bs call) and would be again if they were to get in. Their SOS has to be as weak as OSU's.

In fact, looking at that, how many times will they screw ND in favor of the beloved Fla St?

Bumping my post! Where is Bodi? hahaha... Learn from my wisdom boys...

) 22-16 GA TECH OVA fla st! And the cannon goes boom!

I'm gonna bump this mf'er until January! Hah! One of the best Saturdays in the fall, and Notre Dame didn't even play! WTF?? Hah!!

Surprised that there is less recognition of the power of the SEC influence.
If Bama beats LSU in classic close brutal battle decided at the end and both are then 1 loss teams - Bama wins the SEC then I think both are ahead of ND. ND needs LSU to win out! Utah, Clemson and FSU need a loss.
Of course either TCU or Baylor gets eliminated in the head to head.
And if ND eliminates Stanford, there is a shot.

You guys that think 11-1 is an auto birth are going on 'want' than considering all the things possible. It is not clear cut for ND or any other team as stands. But the ND road is a bumpy one.

Go suck a lemon, Purse.

Bump...that's right.

Playoffs or bust!

 

[Irishjohn68]

What conference would you like to join? Or are you advocating doing nothing and risking another 11-1 season resulting in ND being on the outside looking in?

Another 11-1 season being left out? When was the first?

 

[Irishjohn68]

Dude? You of all people should see the writing on the wall: The committee will give the conferences the benefit of the doubt. Same as the coaches and writers do each week when they vote. #Conferencepride #Regionpride

ND will join a conference once they get left out 2, 3 or 4 times after going 11-1.

I think you are kind of stupid!
