Let's spell this out for those with mental short-comings....
Imagine the following scenario for final regular season records.
Top Ten shown only because the rest don't matter.
Clemson 12-0
TCU 11-1 (maybe 10-2)
Baylor 11-1 (maybe 10-2)
MSU 11-1
Notre Dame 11-1
Ohio State 11-1
LSU 11-1
Iowa 11-1
Alabama 10-2
Stanford 10-2
Hard to imagine ND being left out playoff if the above pans out as shown.
Their lone loss being to the only undefeated team - by two measley points -
at the frighteningly dreadful Death Valley???
You'd have a tough time convincing me we'd be left out.
Carry on.
