[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that Notre Dame would have been a better opponent than Alabama, but the CFP selection process is not perfect.

Personally, I agree that conference membership should be a slight tip to a school over an independent if the independent put itself in essentially a tie for the final CFP slot. Why ? Because conference members benefit many schools via revenue sharing while the greedy independent takes all proceeds for itself.

Notre Dame football elected to be part of the CFP system and even had a significant hand in designing the selection process.

Essentially, Notre Dame football has bet the house on making the CFP playoff every year. If you disagree, wait & see what happens if Notre Dame football does not make the CFP next season. (Hint: Conference membership.)

Not counting conference championship games, teams need to have just 2 or fewer losses to receive serious consideration for the CFP, By this standard, Notre Dame football would have been excluded from the CFP in 25 seasons out of the past 31 seasons. And Notre Dame football did not make the CFP this year with 2 losses so it would be 26 of the past 31 seasons if the CFP had been in existence since 1994.

With larger conferences and more required conference games, teams will move away from scheduling Notre Dame as an opponent. If Notre Dame football refuses to accommodate traditional rivals, such as ND football's treatment of USC, Notre Dame football will become increasingly irrelevant.

If Notre Dame football refuses to adjust to the rapidly changing major college football developments, ND football will be relegated to second tier status.[/quote]

With the MOU ND has where they are in the playoffs as long as they are in the top 12, they will be in.[/quote]
