Why we should root for Miami and against the SEC.

I think this is a decent take.

I also generally root for USC against everyone else.

I want our "rivals" to have serious cache when we play them.

However, I do sympathize with the notion that there is a degree of schadenfreude attached to seeing our rivals unhappy.

ND had like the 3rd to 5th best odds to win the whole thing. Why watch a paper champions be crowned? Your time is better spent watching pro wrestling or waiting in line to speak to Santa at the mall.

It’s a complete sham!

Don’t waste your time with that bs.

Shame on that those that wronged ND.

A legitimate contender was maneuvered out of the playoff. It's an asterisk playoff.

Beyond that I don't care. If they can't all lose I dislike a Texas A&M the least.

Having none of it and won't "root" for anything but blowouts of the totally undeserving and terrible ratings.

The whole thing stinks to high heaven...

I see it slightly different, I think Miami was overly hyped to distract from the planned Bama sham.

That would prove the idiocy of ND's omission.

I won't be watching. I'll check the scores. I'll watch a highlight if refs screw another conference.

I know it's tough for most of Notre Dame fans, but I will not watch CFP this year. I'm hoping the ratings suck.
Actually have not watched ESPN/SEC since announcement screwing the Irish.
