I’m so glad Notre Dame got left out. All games have to matter

It’s hilarious watching ND fans whine about bias when brand bias is the only reason it had a chance for a spot in the first place. IU with notre dames resume wouldn’t sniff the playoffs. And I think ND is probably one of the 12 best teams in the country, but you gotta go earn a spot on the playoff, and ND didn’t. 

I may have searched out a couple ND livestreams to see their reaction.   They’re not taking the news well to say the least.

lmao

Plus this will cost them tens of millions of $ in revenue.  :-)

Notre Dame didn't make the CFP

I'll admit I was wrong when I thought they would get in after running off 10 straight wins based on just their name. I'm happy to be wrong.

ACC flexed their tiny little muscles they weren’t going to allow Notre Dame to get in over them.

That will be tonight when I am meal prepping. 
 

Curt Cignetti got a bye in the CFP before Notre Dame. And he won a big ten championship before Purdue won a conference game(during the CFP era) 
 

He’s king of Indiana at this point

I hope you’re right. I’ve become incredibly sick of Vandy fans and their geriatric QB asking the POTUS to increase the number of playoff teams. I would want to root for them and they made it flat freaking impossible.

I thought that other guy claimed that title - the one with the round ball. :)

If you're Notre Dame they should think about being in a conference for football. 

And use your non conference games with the toughest teams possible.

I get tradition is important, but playing Navy and Purdue every year isn't going to help.

I hope we play Oklahoma but expect we'll get Bama.

Any idea how Oregon and TTU match up?

On nothing other than vibes and just watching games, I have a gut feeling that Tech is a lot better than people are expecting and beat the piss out of Oregon. Tech’s defensive front is insane. 

[LIHoosier 29,227]

Yes! Penn State vs Clemson in the 'How did we get here?' Bowl aka the LEO Bowl aka the Pinstripe Bowl.
The loser has to keep Tom Allen.

You may be right. I’m sure Oregon’s a good bit better than BYU but, man, TTU made those guys look like, physically,  they flat out they didn’t belong yesterday.

If this would have been in place this year, they just would have dropped them to 13 to get the same result. 

The committee puts who they want, then works logic backwards to justify it.

Illinois -Tennessee is literally the overrated bowl 

[Hoosierfan2017 25,483]

Lmao Notre Dame declining a bowl game. What a bunch of babies. Ban them from the playoff unless they join a conference.

For the first time ever you might see a coach tell a qb to throw a pick six
