You have to remember 12 teams get in, and most teams have at least 1 bad loss in a season. If you look back at final historical CFP rankings, 2-loss P5+ND teams generally finish top 12.

- Enormous IF, but yes if they win out they'll be in and likely host a 1st round game. - Chrisb - 1:20pm 9/28/24

- We are in to the Eye test period from now on. Barely win and trouble. [NT] - whatsamataU - 4:33pm 9/27/24
- Absolutely! However, 1 GAME at a time. Beat Louisville.... [NT] - KWIRISH - 11:06am 9/27/24
- Almost certainly and likely hosting. They might even make it in with 2L, but harder with NIU loss - Turkish - 10:26am 9/27/24
- LOL @ 2L...we lose another game and it's a wrap. [NT] - Chrisb - 1:24pm 9/28/24
- Pretty sad when you’re highest ranked win is a team ranked #25 - WoodstockIrish - 10:46am 9/28/24
- Not going to win a playoff game with RL unless they start running the wishbone [NT] - holybull101 - 10:17am 9/27/24
- IMHO it's too early to tell. Other factors beyond our control. Not going to happen w/ 2 losses. - ELP - 10:09am 9/27/24
- NIU was nigh unforgivable, but ND *could* still get in with 2 losses - Turkish - 10:53am 9/27/24
- We've had our mulligan - D2 - 2:04pm 9/27/24
- IMHO, 2 losses won't do it, especially since one of those losses was a home loss to NIU. - ELP - 11:50am 9/27/24
