If ND ends up 10, I am very content. I think it would be fun to get another shot at A&M for the chance to play Indiana at a neutral site.
Oh yeah, I love the current path. Give that to me all day long. The chance for revenge against A&M and then a crack at IU (or probably TT if IU loses) is something I would sign up for in a heartbeat.

I took his statement as if teams playing this week wins or losses effects teams not playing strength of schedule then those teams that sos is effected can be moved. Maybe hopeful hearing but that's how I took it. So do any of the championship games effect us or miami.
Yeah, I caught that and had the same thought. I don't trust this Yurachek or whatever his name is, he has shifty eyes and seems less trustworthy than a Louisiana politician.

Don't be an ass.
I don't want to attack the guy too much- there were a bunch of other reasons for that loss and maybe we still lose even if goes to OT. But if we get left out, that's the main thing he will be remembered for at ND, unfortunately.

Odds are now ND -500. BYU to not make it is -550. Seems nothing has changed, and ND has a sliver of opportunity if UGA takes Bama to the woodshed even if BYU wins.

Miami is +760

DK odds for ND jumped from -400 to -500 even though we went down.

I just really hope everyone so confident ND isn’t making it is emotional hedging by betting BYU and Miami in. You guys stand to make some nice coin for the holidays

TAM being exposed is the only logical reason for Alabama leaping us.

Even so I would have dropped Alabama or kept then the same for their very unimpressive win vs a mediocre Auburn without a coach.

Honestly, not that overly upset about it.
#10 spot is a cleaner path to title game then #8 or #9.
Likely (7) seed is A&M or Ole Miss.
We will be at minimum a 2 point road favorite against either team.
Plus we get Indiana as likely (3) seed if they lose to Ohio State.

Also, likely avoid being on the same side of the bracket from possibly the (2) best teams in the country right now.
Ohio State (1)
Oregon (5)

The obvious concern now is that if BYU loses, then will the committee have Miami jump us.
It would be odd since neither team will have played again, but certainly will be the biggest national talking point.
I don’t think it’s about the seeding. It’s about this: If BYU wins we are out, and if BYU loses MIAMI moves up and we are likely swapped out. I think we are more than likely out right now.

When all is said and done, we might miss with the best team we have had in decades. Marcus Freeman MUST address his bad Septembers. Absolutely unacceptable game plan against Miami.
That was bad but A&M was worse. Win that game and there's no issue. And, of course, it's extremely unusual to have the first two games be the toughest two.

I still believe we get in

UNLESS the committee has been lying all along about how they value teams that are playing extremely well at the end of the season

I'm still just stuck on, why not just jump Miami over us this week? Miami looked dominant against Pitt in a high stakes away game. Why wait until we're both idle? BYU was always win and in, so it doesn't matter their relative ranking. I just think waiting to make the swap when we're both idle would be opening them up to way more criticism than doing it this week.
