Sorry if already posted... Given our expansion deal and the impressive secrecy, I suspect more will be forth coming...

So does this mean that ND is out of the bowl tie-ins with the Former Big East?

Big east champ currently has no tie-in after this year...and will struggle to get something decent under the new format. I expect ND will stay with the big east tie ins for when they have their 6 win season and just want a place to go, but will cut 5 other deals to protect themselves for when they are good.
