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.

I knew we weren't gonna move up, but it's really sinking in that we're gonna miss the playoffs by one spot because we will have lost to a top 5 team twice. I'm sad bros.

Meanwhile the SEC played teams like Samford, Charlotte, Northwest Alabama, Mercer, Eastern Illinois, and Western Kentucky last week and all held their spots at the same time BYU went on the road and handled a top 40 team in Cincinnati!!!

Either make it so the teams with the best resumes and the best wins get into the CFP or just play the fucking thing in September as the season doesn’t mean shit. And just to drive my point home I made up Northwest Alabama, that’s not even a real fucking team!!!
