Notre Dame would have been ranked No. 9 using the old Bowl Championship Series (BCS) system.
This is the same ranking the Fighting Irish (10-2) received in the final College Football Playoff (CFP) rankings for the current 2025 season. The primary difference under the old BCS formula is that Notre Dame would have been ranked ahead of No. 10 Alabama (9-3), whereas the CFP committee ranked Alabama ahead of the Irish.

- That's the crux of the issue. Alabama was behind ND and then was placed ahead of them with zero... - TakethetrainKnute - 11:12am 12/9/25
  - Agree. The Miami narrative was a red herring. - Hensou - 11:43am 12/9/25
  - The biggest problem is the SEC getting 5 spots. 12 team playoff is fine if one conference - DiscoRick - 11:13am 12/9/25
