ND wins and they are in

[beachcardinal]

its simple

No way PSU doesn’t lose at least one
OSU still has Mich and PSU
OkState and TCU will loose to Texas or OU
PAC-12 is a joke
Miami is the game!!!!!!!!!

Playoff very well could be
UGA
Alabama
ND
B10,B12or PAC 12?

No 2 loss team will get in

It will be very hard for an 11-1 ND team to pass most 12-1 conference teams.

No. A team that wins the Rose or Orange or Cotton, ends up 12-1 and ranked third, has enjoyed a better season than a team that made the playoff, got blown out, ended the year 11-2 and ranked eighth.

Sigh

What the hell do subjective rankings have to do with it ? Making the playoff is a much greater accomplishment than winning any non playoff game. What's next ? Participation trophies ?

Double sigh. In the example given, going 12-1 vs 11-2 and being ranked five spots higher would be a better accomplishment than simply being subjectively selected for the playoff and getting blown out.

Is anyone going to be disappointed if we finish 11-2 with an NY6 victory and a top 5 rank??

And there is a degree of fairness in that idea.

There will be very few maybe one or two 12-1 and $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ if ND goes 11-1 with that schedule they are in

Maybe even at 11-1 verses 12-2 with a loss in the championship game. I don't know. USC is rated 11 and if we lose tomorrow we will drop down in the low teens. Stanford just got rated again, with a loss they would drop out. Miami would be a help as a middle teen team after a loss. I wouldn't take it for granted.

Well nothing is a given we all know that but winning out and a 1pt loss to A possible SEC champ should be a least in the championship game....but if it’s a tight game in he SEC championship like I said before
Bama
UGA
