Yep, ND's ire should've been directed at the committee instead of the ACC.

ND knew it was the committee that screwed up but they want to get out of the agreement with the ACC. They used the situation to purposefully create a dustup with the ACC. No way did the ACC network's constant showing of Miami's early season win over ND have anything to do with the committee's decision. Miami's head to head win over the Irish also allowed the committee to make sure that all of the P4 had a representative in the playoff.

BYU lost 34-7 to Texas Tech, that got skunked 23-0 by Oregon.

12-1 leading into Champ weekend, while ND sat home, and Bama lost big, too.
Truthahn • 01/02/26 12:31 PM ET
I understand that point of view, but ~34-7 loss in your last game, like
Stech • 01/02/26 12:38 PM ET
The 3 losses alone should have put Alabama behind 12 in rank.

I would have put ND in over Bama. And I said it back then.

If they ever need a lesson in understanding how it feels to get the shaft…

The Bowls are Notorious for passing over teams to get what they want
HOO86 • 01/02/26 10:50 AM ET
That’s always been the case with bowls…
Calamitous • 01/02/26 04:23 PM ET
Bama did not belong and I would say that no matter the team. The SEC is

Yep - the SEC is 4-8 in bowl games.**

Agreed, transfer portal and NIL makes it so they don't stockpile as much.

Might be right, got to keep talking about it to eventually change it.
