“That shot was made by the perfect person at the right time. He’s deserving to be remembered forever.”
@UNC_Basketball HC Hubert Davis on Seth Trimble's game winning shot to take down No. 4 Duke.
Notre Dame was ranked No. 9 and Alabama was ranked No. 10 in Week 14.
Notre Dame won at (4-8) Stanford 49-20, Alabama won at (5-7) Auburn 27-20.
Alabama JUMPS Notre Dame, swapping spots at 9 and 10.
Fast forward to this week, Alabama gets SMASHED by UGA, and ND doesn’t play.
Alabama stays at No. 9 and Notre Dame falls another spot to No. 11, despite the four teams behind them losing/not playing.
I don’t care if you think Notre Dame should’ve missed the playoff all along, but the committee just contradicted everything they stood for the past month.
Disgraceful decision making.
There wasn’t any logic waiting to move UM ahead of ND if Conf championship game outcomes are inconsequential. If Head to head was a factor, you had it all year. This isn’t a serious committee. It’s a made for TV event. Expand and get rid of the committee. BCS was a better formula. For ND, you now know 11-1 is the worst you can do to secure a spot in this current playoff format.
Notre Dame gets left out of the CFP…
The Irish won 10 straight, were ranked ahead of Miami for weeks, and their only losses were Week 1 to No. 10 Miami and Week 2 to No. 7 Texas A&M by a combined four points.
Ridiculous decision. One of the best teams in the country.
