B1G and SEC the 3rd loss disqualifies you...well see if that holds true after a loss in a Championship Game.

ACC and BigXII the 2nd loss disqualifies us.

I get the scenerio that a BYU loss against TT works in our favor, but I was of the mindset that if Alabama were to lose to UGA, giving 'Bama 3 losses, that would work to our benefit, not the other way around.

If Bama wins why would ND jump to 9 ?

I’m saying if Bama loses. Now they can have an idle ND jump to #9 and Bama drops but still makes the playoff.

That’s what’s ****ed about the BYU placement. They’ve given themselves a ton of optionality with buffers.

That was before they moved Bama ahead of ND. Once that happened the only way Bama gets left out is if Simpson or someone similarly important suffers a season ending injury against UGA.

Hence the real reason to move them up for that massive win over Auburn.

Yup.

Still looks like there is free money available betting on Bama to make playoff. Still only 92c yes on Kalshi. Whatever the chances of Simpson getting injured are they gotta be less than 8%.

This comment from David Hale is enlightening, especially in regards to NDs supposed "impressive" run after their two losses:

But let's keep going. Miami's two losses -- SMU and Louisville -- would rank as the fourth- and fifth-toughest games on Notre Dame's schedule, had the Irish played them.

Outside of the obvious head to head, this is what has blown my mind the most in this conversation. Notre Dame beat ONE team better than the “horrible losses” we have. One.

 

[CanesDynasty]

This is exactly what’s gonna happen. We’ll never be next to Notre Dame. It’s just musical chairs and we never get a seat. It’s a shell game.

I gave this situation more thought and asked myself, what would happen if Miami and Notre Dame swapped resumes... The result would be the exact same because they would be preaching that they are almost identical in the metrics, but Notre Dame is in because of the H2H tiebreaker

That's a helluva idea!

Have you used Kalshi or PolyMarket?
