It is easier if you realize ND was never getting in the playoff this time
No matter what happened. Crazy to think. But even when everything fell into place this weekend it did not happen. Yurachek was installed to be sure things went this way. The carrot they were dangling was just to spite us.

The fix was in for Alabama. ESPN and SEC were out to screw us. How can McIlroy say Alabama
is definitely in and in the next breath say we would be one of his two favorites for the title?
I'd like a bowl game for 1 reason: to hang 100 on whomever we play. Flock you, committee.

The carrot they were dangling was for eyeballs.
The entire second half of the season’s ad revenue is driven by the rankings. Your network is now selling a matchup between #2 v #5.
The rankings influence what games are televised on which network (ABC v espn2), what times the games start, which players play, which starters are left in for style points, etc.
I can’t see the weekly rankings going away.
They can't go away. Stop doing it "officially" and one of the "unofficial" rankings will assume the
...role and be relied upon instead of what they can control....
It's not. We'll never know what might have been. They stole it.

By "it" I hope you are referring to a whole year of these young men's lives.

Ok, cause I had to explain to my wife ALL that those 2 little fraudulent position drops entailed...
both the known and unknown consequences
All to protect a team who played like they'd rather be at home with their families for the holidays.
Team could have won it all and the committee knows it
