I don't keep up with other conferences much so this may be a dumb question.
What if, say, North Carolina plays Clemson and beats them. Will Clemson drop out of the top 4 and if so, who moves in?

Most people would say the Irish, but Clemson would have a great argument for staying in over them. Both 1 loss teams, niether would be a conference champ and Clemson beat them head to head.

That's an interesting dilemma.

There are those that think ND can't make it if Clemson loses because of the loss to them coupled with no Conference Title for ND.

I go back and forth on ND - thinking the committee would overlook them in almost every case because their top criteria is Conference Champion and ND refuses to join.
Although at times I think maybe they can get in - perhaps a Clemson loss puts a 1 loss ND team in - provided the B1G, Big12 and SEC are the other three - because the PAC12 is too far back and a 1 loss Conference Champion NoCar wouldn't jump them due to SoS.

That will be an interesting scenario to see played out.
