in all likelihood 11-1 ND @ Stanford for a playoff spot 11/28/2015

Stanford has to beat Oregon to make it a virtual lock that ND gets in if they go 11-1. We need Stanford in the top 10 that night.
OPP is right if Stanford wins out, Clemson keeps winning and SC loses no more than one more. I think what some are missing is the games coming up for some of the teams behind ND. There is a substantial danger of ND getting passed. You may recall that happening to teams last year.
Clemson, Ohio State and Alabama have spots and the final spot will be ND/Stanford winner or a potential Big 12 UNDEFEATED team....TCU lost so either Oklahoma St. and Baylor have to lose once each.
Agree
Absolutely pathetic. I don't see how the committee can justify them in the top 4
Is it really impressive to go undefeated against this cakewalk schedule?
Virginia Tech
Hawaii
Northern Illinois
Western Michigan
Indiana
Maryland
Penn State
Rutgers
Minnesota
Shame on OSU for this joke of a slate. Find me a tough game on this schedule and I'll find you a liar.
Although their schedule is a cakewalk, NIU has been a good program for the last six years and VT is down from what they've been.
Still sucks they haven't played anyone though.

It doesn't matter what anybody else does. ND wins out and they are in.
Look like Clemson, Alabama, Iowa,and Oklahoma State will be on Final 4 spot for playoff.
I can feel OSU will lost to MSU or Michigan. I hate to say: ND will lost one more time. BC or Stanford?

3 teams are in this morning if they just win out: tOSU, Bama, Clemson. They can make their hotel reservations.
ND fans need to focus on Oklahoma! They have potential to finish with a big bang!

Oklahoma is not the team to worry about for the Irish. The Texas loss will probably doom them when looking at ND vs Oklahoma. Baylor or OK st winning out is the biggest concern, outside ND dropping a game.
Your right and many of us have been saying that for weeks.
Oklahoma State isn't jumping up to a top 4 spot. As far as the BC game, they are pathetic this year. Their offense is beyond bad. They usually play ND tough but not this year. They will be lucky to reach 10 pts.
I'd like to believe this is true, but I don't think it is.
An undefeated Big XII team will not be left out. Not after what happened last year.
The stars seem to be aligning for Okie State this year, who have TCU, Baylor and OU all at home.
The committee owes the Big12 nothing. The team they picked over the Big12, Ohst, won the championship.
11-1 ND is in.
Yeah, Ohio State won the playoff, but not against the Big XII, who were shut out of the process.
Anyway, human nature being what it is, I don't see the same conference getting passed over two years in a row, especially if they have an undefeated team and are competing for a playoff berth with one loss teams. I could be wrong, but I just don't see it.
Don't forget about Iowa. An undefeated Big 10 team would have to make it...right?
If Iowa beats an undefeated Ohst they will have an argument.
Not to say that they will or can. I guess the good part about that would be Iowa would simply take Ohio State's spot in that scenario.
Overall, I like our chances if we take care of business the next 3 weeks. Man, this would be exciting!
