It is interesting that ND could get mixed in with the ACC playoff teams.

I wonder if ND anticipated that development, when they arranged to play Clemson every year? It will give every ACC team a much bigger incentive to beat ND, making our ACC vs ND games much more interesting. Maybe the ACC could turn that around have have ND somehow in an ACC play-in game when they are otherwise out of the playoffs? That is, whenever ND is out of the playoffs, if they are close enough, they could play-in with our #3. That game would be pretty huge for us. They would also have to be considered an ACC playoff team at that point, and share most of the money with us, or it would not make sense.

Can the ACC secure three AQs?

Will the at-large teams be chosen BEFORE the play-in games?

Don't we already get slightly more money than the B12 from the playoffs?

Yes, the ACC receives marginally more than the Big 12 schools.

Just leverage an existing platform. If ND is ranked in the top 16, then in.

No thanks

Maybe, if they are just outside of the rankings, they could be

I think I actually agree with you.

Would Notre Dame agree to an ACC play-in if they are not an at large?

It seems to me that the P2 wanting 4 teams in is so they can have play-ins.
Truthahn • 05/19/25 01:33 PM ET
I definitely see that for the SEC and B1G with 4 each but
Sunsetunderground • 05/19/25 02:52 PM ET
I see the compromise as 3-3-2-2-1, with the balance being at large

I sure hope not **

I feel like if play-ins become a "thing" ND may face opposition
