Original Title: Unpopular take? All of Notre Dame, Miami, and Alabama have good points but also serious holes in their resume and it’s not an “outrage” if any of them get left out for the other two. There’s no real travesty regardless of which one it is.


Like there are reasons why all three of them “shouldn’t” make the playoff but two of them will so doesn’t that show how there’s no real wrong answer to the debate?

All of “Alabama have 3 losses and the worst loss by far of the bunch to FSU”, “Miami has 2 unranked losses and couldn’t even beat out 5 loss Duke to make the conference championship”, and “Notre Dame lost their two toughest games including directly to Miami and they don’t even play in a conference” are 100% true and it’s a fair choice to leave one of them out based on which one of those you think is most damning

No one is getting robbed here they all had chances to secure their spot and didn’t do it in general with the 12 team playoff there’s no 2023 FSU situation where a team genuinely didn’t do anything wrong
