It's amazing that a board full of supposedly knowledgeable football fans can't wrap their heads around the fact that the only thing that keeps an 11-1 ND out of the playoffs is 4 undefeated conference champions

I think a 12-1 SEC champion and a 12-1 Big Ten Champion MIGHT be above Notre Dame on the totem poll.
But that's it. 11-1 Notre Dame isn't being kept out. Even if TCU goes undefeated.
Notre Dame's schedule is good almost every year. And this year it's really good.
They'd have wins over Michigan State, Southern Cal, NC State, Miami, and Stanford. That's five teams that will likely be ranked at year's end. Three of those teams could be in the top 10 or 15. It's very likely that no one else in the country will be able to say that. And on top of that, their loss will be to a top 5-10 team.
If Notre Dame wins out, they are in. Locked in.

And it pains me so fricking much to say this
But If they go 11-1 this year they are deserving
For the first time ever
