The Pac who?I'm looking forward to the Pac 12 Championship game tonight
Hopefully not, but I've got a weird feeling they might blow the doors off of ND and beat them by three TD's

Was worried about our chances before ND scored that TD. I think we're good now.Dammit.

If ND hadn't already beaten Clemson once they'd definitely be out. Let's hope A&M doesn't jump them.
Let's also hope that A&M doesn't show up to the Orange Bowl pissed off if they end up at #5
If they don't get it, I think they come out with a IDGAF attitude and maybe we can take advantage.
I think A&M will make the playoff. ND needed to keep the game close to stay in with a loss.
It’s gonna be clemson and bama again in the championship game... An 8 team playoff would at least make things more interesting
This 4-team thing is not working.It’s gonna be clemson and bama again in the championship game... An 8 team playoff would at least make things more interesting
As more people on TV are now talking about that possibility, I assume that more of the movers and shakers are exploring the idea of expanding the playoffs.This 4-team thing is not working.
If the Aggies get in over the Irish, it will be due to the SEC's league brand, the SEC-connected people on the committee working to get the Aggies in, and the Big Ten people tending to be opposed to both ND getting in and the ACC getting 2 teams in.I think A&M will make the playoff.

Notre Dame isn't really an ACC team!If the Aggies get in over the Irish, it will be due to the SEC's league brand, the SEC-connected people on the committee working to get the Aggies in, and the Big Ten people tending to be opposed to both ND getting in and the ACC getting 2 teams in.
Back to bowl talk. With ND getting blasted by clemsuck it probably hurts our chances at the orange bowl. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Texas a&m jump them. Hopefully if they do the committee will leave the Buckeyes out.
Get rid of the bowls and go to a 16 team playoff.It’s gonna be clemson and bama again in the championship game... An 8 team playoff would at least make things more interesting

The bowl system doesn't do anything but reward mediocrity. You can keep the name of the bowl if you want (rose, orange, sugar etc) but it would just be a playoff game.You could still have the bowls serve as playoff games like they do now. And probably keep the other bowls too. If anything, drop one of the non-conference games that get used as a tune up and play an 11 game regular season.

They were this season, and their getting into the playoffs helps UNC.Notre Dame isn't really an ACC team!
IS is it a done deal Are we In the Orange Bowl?? would like to play A and M, they are good and playing well but that would make a W VERY SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ND is better than A&M?
Who is better, 3-loss Florida or 3-loss UNC? I think this drives whether A&M should be in the CFP instead of Notre. Not sure Notre beating Trevor-less Clemson in double-overtime should be given much weight.
Also, I do like hale's take
