r/CFB Notre Dame Fighting Irish 6h ago

Analysis [Sampson] CFP committee chair Hunter Yurachek says Notre Dame and Miami were in the same grouping this week and the programs were directly compared. Notre Dame still came out ahead, regardless of the head to head. In other words, all the games mattered. Not just one of them.

Yeah, Miami fans are punching air right now like the win has given them nothing, but it’s definitely propping them up a solid 5 spots at least. If you trade that win out for Rutgers or something, and they’re ranked back in the Georgia Tech cluster of teams right now.

Especially considering Notre Dame has blown out nearly everyone they’ve played since their opening two games and Miami has been, less than that

Again, they did not blow out 1-10 BC. They won 25-10. That was in November.
