horns96 Posted yesterday at 12:16 AM Posted yesterday at 12:16 AM (edited) I don't see the issue with ND's scheduling and remaining independent? It's not like they lost to Northern Southern Illinois and made the National Championship or anything. Edited yesterday at 12:18 AM by horns96 I wrongly attributed the mighty Salukis to Northern Illinois instead of Southern Illinois. horns96 regrets the error. 2 Quote
FootLaw Posted yesterday at 01:47 AM Posted yesterday at 01:47 AM ND is overrated so often now. This isn't the college football of older days anymore. Get in a conference and earn your spot in the playoffs. Quote

It is if ND gets a playoff berth and Texas loses a berth despite having a stronger SOS… ND, by being independent now has the easiest path to CFP because of the 12 team scheme (and maybe 16 team scheme) Quote
harveycmd Posted 19 hours ago Posted 19 hours ago Don't see how you can make them join a conference. The selection rules for the next CFP agreement need to stipulate that there will be a strong SOS component like they have for baseball and basketball. 1 Quote

Lavalulu Posted 4 hours ago Author Posted 4 hours ago The new CFP scheme makes ND’s path to playoffs distinctly easier—CFB landscape has changed to the benefit of ND (coincidence or not) I challenge ND to join the SEC where ND cannot dictate their SOS. ND cannot survive to the CFP—and they know it. But I suspect if ND is required to join a conference…they will pick ACC to align with the rest of ND’s sports programs Quote
