@DanWolken@georgewrighster This incredibly specific hypothetical is fascinating. I bet it’s exactly what Jen Cohen and Lincoln Riley began planning around when they began looking for ways out of this annual rivalry game a couple years ago. Great work as always!
@nickossello As a ACC lax fan, this terrifies me. Not enough juice left in the conference if ND leaves.
My wife claims they have floated an invite to Towson to replace ND in this scenario. She gets together with Jim Phillips every other Saturday night so I actually trust her on this.
@LandonTengwall Landon can you confirm this officiating crew was hired and compensated by the @SEC ? Feels like a conflict of interest in my unbiased view
@RossDellenger Ross, does this logic suggest ND makes the playoff if BYU loses a closer game?
And why wouldn’t ND have jumped Bama for the same reason Miami jumped BYU?
Every time the committee speaks, their logic sounds more and more backwards.
Of all the backwards logic displayed by this committee, my favorite might be the implication that ND makes the playoff if BYU loses a close game yesterday. They only compared ND/UM H2H because they dropped BYU? Insane way to defend your process.
@CollegeFBonX As a neutral fan, it’s easily @NDFootball
There’s a reason why Vegas has them as a top-5 title contender and every advance metric believed they’re a top 5 team. I want the best teams competing, in January, argue the rest amongst yourselves
@Brett_McMurphy Pitt stands to earn ~$500-700k if Miami makes the playoff as an at-large team. Do you really expect Narduzzi to give an honest answer when money is on the line?
