Message: [QUOTE="sabach, post: 1223585, member: 866"] Those "correct things" are not mutually exclusive to the point bpo57 was making. Say the committee will not give ND credit for being ND with its legions of fans and tv viewers going forward and ND has to earn the playoffs on its own merit which is the point Jake and Kaiser have been making. That said, it is an anomaly that there are so many one or fewer loss conference champions this year. Therefore, it still is likely an 11-1 ND team and certainly a 12-0 ND team will make the playoffs in most years. So the idea that ND needs to join a conference in order to secure its position in the playoffs is moot even if ND is no longer going to be given preferential treatment by the committee. [/QUOTE]
