USC fans are MAD. I didn’t expect the Notre Dame game controversy to bother them this much.

What if I told you that Miami only got in because Virginia lost?
That Big Conference and the Deep State of CFB had a “squeeze-out” operation in place incase Duke won the ACC?
That they decided two weeks ago after they “randomly” moved ND back to #10 —that Alabama would be protected at all costs after they survived Auburn, and that they’d use BYU as collateral damage if Virginia couldn’t secure the ACC bid..
That the “head to head” angle is just a distraction to teach Notre Dame a lesson since they haven’t followed the corporate model of joining a conference

Dear Notre Dame,
On behalf of college football, we wanted to say thank you. (via @GenoEspn)

So folks at @espn are upset ND isn’t playing in a bowl game after weeks of folks politicking against the lack of conference affiliation, using them as a pawn for their CFB playoff selection show, having the ACC network play the UM/ND game on repeat for 48 hours during Conf Champ week BUT now it’s a bad look they don’t want to serve ESPN’s best interest by playing in an exhibition bowl game? Got it.

You KNEW Miami beat ND thru the 1st 5 reveals then you suddenly drop us out of the field when all we did was win???? You were the ones who put us 9th to begin with!!! That’s just cruel. What a sham. SEC bias is real.
P-Jay Peña retweeted
Notre Dame got fucked over by the @CFBPlayoff and @espn
ESPN has hundreds of millions of dollars in deals with the SEC and ACC and a 7.8 billion dollar deal with the CFP
the FIX was in = every ESPN talking head pushed their narrative to the finish line.
COMPLETE BULLSHIT

Ohio St lost and fell.
BYU lost and fell.
Virginia lost and fell.
What happened when Alabama got dominated while racking up -3 rushing yards?

Take out #Miami FCS win & they are @ 9 wins! Why are FCS scrimmages included? #NotreDame only program in @CFBPlayoff hunt without 1. @NicoleAuerbach @CFBHeather @AndyStaples @AriWasserman @BruceFeldmanCFB @ByPatForde @RossDellenger @ReceDavis @chrisfallica @Cover3Podcast
Serious question. Why is this considered a win in FBS standings? This is a lower tier of D1 football. Why does this count in college football across the board. FBS teams should not be allowed to be credited with a win playing a school like this.

Miami has 9 FBS wins and an FCS win.
Notre Dame has 10 FBS wins.
Notre Dame has zero bad losses.
Miami has two unranked losses.
Playoff teams don’t lose those games.
Simple.
Total opponent FBS wins:
Notre Dame: 75
Miami: 69
ND played the tougher schedule — and handled business.
Every major poll:
CFP, AP, Coaches — all have Notre Dame ahead of Miami.
Not one poll or ranking system sees Miami as the better team. #GoIrish

I’m so sick of the @NDFootball vs Miami argument — let’s stay grounded in what’s actually true — not feelings, not conference politics, not just “but head-to-head.” Just straight facts.
Yes, Miami beat Notre Dame 27–24 in Week 1. Nobody is denying that. But the playoff isn’t about who looked good in August — it’s about who was better over 12 full games and who actually earned a playoff spot.
Now look at the entire résumé:
Notre Dame has 10 FBS wins.
Miami has 9 FBS wins and an FCS win.
Those are not the same.
Notre Dame’s two losses came to ranked, playoff-level teams (Miami and Texas A&M).
Miami’s two losses came to unranked conference opponents (Louisville and SMU).
Again — very different résumés.
Notre Dame has zero bad losses, two ranked wins, and played the stronger schedule based on total opponent FBS wins (ND: 75 | Miami: 69).
ND also won all 10 games by double digits — dominance from start to finish.
Here’s the part nobody can debate:
Every major poll and ranking system has Notre Dame ahead of Miami.
• CFP: ND 10 | Miami 12
• AP: ND 9 | Miami 12
• Coaches: ND 9 | Miami 12
• FPI: ND top 3
• SP+: ND top 5
• FEI: ND top 5
• Sagarin: ND top 5
There isn’t a single analytic system — human or computer — that ranks Miami above Notre Dame.
Miami finished third in the ACC and didn’t reach the title game.
Notre Dame finished with a top-10 national profile and top-5 efficiency numbers.
And here’s the key part — straight from the CFP committee chair:
Notre Dame and Miami were compared directly… and Notre Dame STILL came out ahead — even after head-to-head.
Why? Because the committee evaluates the entire season, not one Saturday in August.
Notre Dame checks every single playoff box. Miami doesn’t check half of them — and they do NOT deserve to be in over Notre Dame.
Notre Dame has:
• More FBS wins
• No bad losses
• Two ranked wins
• A stronger overall résumé
• Real statistical balance
• All double-digit victories
• Better opponents
• Top-10 placement in every human poll
• Top-5 numbers in every major efficiency system
• A résumé the committee already confirmed is stronger
Miami:
• Played an FCS team
• Has two unranked losses
• Has one ranked win
• Finished 3rd in the ACC
• Trails Notre Dame in every category that matters
And here is the truth no one can twist:
There is not a single factual category where Miami has a better playoff résumé than Notre Dame — not one.
Head-to-head matters, but only as one piece of the full puzzle. And when you zoom out, it’s obvious:
Notre Dame belongs in the CFP.
Miami does NOT deserve to be in over Notre Dame. Period. #GoIrish

If this play is correctly called a hold, there isn’t even a debate if Notre Dame is a playoff team.
The committee considers EVERYTHING.
P-Jay Peña retweeted
Where was the national media outcry and where was the Miami fan outcry in the Week 12 playoff rankings when 7-2 Miami was ranked 5 spots ahead of 7-2 Louisville ..... who beat Miami at Miami less than a month prior? Same record, right?
