2024 College Football Playoffs

Is this just an espn thing with these seeds vs rankings?

No, it's the official CFP rankings

 

[NDBoiler]

No, it's the official CFP rankings

But you don’t know who the conference champions will be yet, how is this seeding worth anything at this point? And why would Penn St and Ohio St be seeded ahead of IU, they both lost conference games and IU hasn’t.

 

[rtrn2glory]

Gotta give Penn St credit..... They are a complete fraud and the have the committee fooled

Obviously nothing is final, they're just going off the basis that the higher seeds wins the conference.

 

[InKellyWeTrust]

About as good as could hope. They are keeping all 2 loss SEC teams AND Miami behind us.

 

[GATTACA!]

It's honestly laughable and causes the committee to lose whatever credibility they may have had in the 1st place. I wanted to give them credit for ranking UGA and Bama below us, but then they rank PSU at 4. Fucking joke.

 

[InKellyWeTrust]

This Big 12 and ACC auto bye is not going to last.

 

[arrowryan]

How is ND ranked 8th but is the 9 seed?

 

[Rockin’Irish]

LMFAO would be just our luck to be ranked 8th and somehow fucked out of a home game

ADD: PSU ranked #4 is a fucking shamockery

Texas at 3 isn’t much better……

 

[irishjim]

Well looks a Tennessee loss, Indiana getting blown out, or Ohio State losing puts us with a home game. Good to see us ranked ahead of Miami and the bulk of SEC

Miami

Top 4 conference champs become seeds 1-4

 

[rtrn2glory]

Been saying it for awhile now. Just keep winning and everything will take care of itself

 

[ThePiombino]

9th ranked team getting a bye is a stain on the process.

 

[NDBoiler]

Obviously nothing is final, they're just going off the basis that the higher seeds wins the conference.

Right, so it looks like espn is making up their own “seeds” based off what they think will happen vs what the actual cfp rankings the committee did are saying right now. It makes it very confusing.

 

[NDPhilly]

5-6 seed is the holy grail, avoids B10 and SEC winners in 2nd round.

 

[rtrn2glory]

I think every week it'll look more dumb that conferences champions get the auto bye.... Top 4 no matter the conference should get the bye. BYU is not a top 4 team so don't give them the treatment they are

 

[arrowryan]

Tennessee is going to lose this weekend , so that’ll take care of them.

 

[ThePiombino]

Auto byes really are stupid because not all conferences are created equal. Should be top-4 get bye regardless of conference affiliation.

 

[Rockin’Irish]

Well looks a Tennessee loss, Indiana getting blown out, or Ohio State losing puts us with a home game. Good to see us ranked ahead of Miami and the bulk of SEC

ND keeps winning, they will move into a home game slot.

Sure, but with our luck we'll wind up hosting Ole Miss instead of Boise State or some s*** like that because of a seeding shift due to an auto bye.

Notre Dame pissed away that opportunity in week 2.

 

[rtrn2glory]

I agree I've been salivating over the 6 seed all along with hopefully the loser of Ohio St Oregon dropping to 4

 

[ThePiombino]

Miami (who ducked us this year mind you) will wind up fucking us in the end...

 

[Wild Bill]

Tennessee is going to lose this weekend , so that’ll take care of them.

Would rather they finish off Georgia and shit their pants against Vandy. That would be ideal.

 

[ThePiombino]

Nah, the more 2-loss SEC teams the better since there's no way you can bank on Vandy knocking Georgia off.

 

[Wild Bill]

Miami (who ducked us this year mind you) will wind up fucking us in the end...

No chance. They'll win acc and get a 4 seed or they're gone. No way they affect ND.

 

[Wild Bill]

Nah, the more 2-loss SEC teams the better.

My scenario gives them a second loss

 

[ThePiombino]

No chance. They'll win acc and get a 4 seed or they're gone. No way they affect ND.

Assuming they jump us in ranking, otherwise the scenario is as it is now - they are ranked below us but seeded above us. This giving us a matchup we shouldn't have had.
