SEC teams and Big 10 teams with worse records, even if ND wins out, will be picked first. This week’s ranking show that ND is in a precarious position. It dropped after a blowout win. There are no real opportunities left fir ND to impress the committee, other than A&M doing well.

ND’s best chance is for A&M to do damage in the SEC. It’s not inconceivable that a three loss team - irish93 - 7:41am 10/15/24 (27) [View All]
- I just want A&M to do damage to LSU. [NT] - Curly1918 - 2:50pm 10/15/24
- There is zero chance an 11-1 ND team is left out [NT] - MarkHarman - 12:50pm 10/15/24
  - Probably right. But the committee left out a 13-0 FSU last year [NT] - irish93 - 1:24pm 10/15/24

        ND is always going to get a little extra credit—it’s just $s. They are least likely to be left out. [NT] - Shadow_of_the_Dome - 4:59pm 10/15/24
- Here we go again. . . Let’s hope they finish with only 1 loss before we worry about the playoffs. - irishfaninPA - 12:31pm 10/15/24
  - yep [NT] - D2 - 2:11pm 10/15/24
- well, there is this to consider: - und67 - 11:07am 10/15/24
- No, it wouldn’t be for other teams.It was an early trap game, bad,but not lethal alone. But everyone - BaronVonZemo - 9:07am 10/15/24
- This is a terrible recycled argument with no basis in reality. You can "conceive" what you want - Turkish - 8:57am 10/15/24

  - Yet there likely will be multiple 2 loss SEC and Big 10 teams that could get in ahead of us - WoodstockIrish - 10:36am 10/15/24
    - There will not be 12 other teams that get in before a 1-loss ND, and nobody is ignoring NIU - Turkish - 12:39pm 10/15/24
- The only 3 loss team that gets in before a 1 loss ND is a 3 loss Conf Champ. [NT] - Chrisb - 8:55am 10/15/24
  - Do you agree however that more than one 2-loss SEC or Big 10 teams could get in before us? - WoodstockIrish - 10:40am 10/15/24
    - Yeah I do agree about some 2 loss teams, just no 3 loss teams.. - Chrisb - 2:42pm 10/15/24
  - So you’re saying it isn’t inconceivable. So glad you chimed in. [NT] - jimbasil - 9:07am 10/15/24
    - It's inconceivable that a 1-loss ND team ranks worse than 12th and misses playoff. [NT] - Turkish - 9:14am 10/15/24
      - But we wouldn't have to rank 12th... - Chrisb - 9:24am 10/15/24
        The megaconferences de-risked this outcome. Top 2 teams from ACC/BIG/SEC/Big12 make Champ Game - Turkish - 9:39am 10/15/24
    - It isn’t inconceivable that a 5 loss team gets in before an undefeated #1 ranked ND... - Chrisb - 9:12am 10/15/24
      - Glad you’re clearing up what 93 posted because he was very clear in his post. - jimbasil - 11:12am 10/15/24
        Actually it wasn't...he didn't say anything about Conf Champs. - Chrisb - 2:40pm 10/15/24
        oh yeah, gonna just piss off because you’re the big bully on the football board. [NT] - jimbasil - 2:56pm 10/15/24
        No, just because you are a babbling idiot. [NT] - Chrisb - 6:28pm 10/15/24
        Yeah, tough guy. [NT] - jimbasil - 11:09pm 10/15/24
