Let's say Notre Dame makes the College Football Playoff. Depending on the seed, what eight teams are the most likely options?
Let’s just assume everything works out and Notre Dame ends up in the College Football Playoff. Who would it play? Where would it be?
If you don’t know by now, Notre Dame can’t be any higher than a 5 seed - that’s a plus, by the way, but that’s for a different article - because the top four seeds are only for conference champions. With just a few weeks to go before the crazy speculation is over and we can start getting into how this is all shaking out, let’s fast forward four months. It's all about what seed the Irish get from 5 to 12.August call on the likely College Football Playoff opponent:Alabama or Texas. The SEC Championship loser probably gets the 5 seed if it’s not Notre Dame. If the Irish somehow slip into the CFP as the 12, that means the top-ranked Group of Five champion is somewhere in the top 11.
