Anyone of these scenarios has ND in the playoffs:
1. Alabama loses tonight
2. Oregon loses tonight
3. Oklahoma loses tonight
4. Texas Tech wins it's conference
5. Miami goes to the conference championship game and wins. For that to happen, all it takes is two of the following today : Duke loses to Wake Forest; SMU loses to Cal; or Virginia loses to Virginia Tech.
Correct me if I'm wrong. Oh and of course, ND has to win convincingly tonite.
