...and looking to the playoff, only 4 teams go, so one major conference is out anyway.

ND wins out (should be favored) and they are in...that means 2 conferences are out.

ACC - only Clemson and Miami have a chance, IMO...

B12 - OK and WVU...

PAC12 - Stanford/UW/CO...

SEC - Alabama/UGA/LSU...

B1G - only OSU and UM have a chance, IMO - Wisconsin's loss is bad (at home to a team that UW killed)

Interesting scenario - if ND wins out, who are the weakest champions? Probably PAC12, then who?

I could see ND/undefeated OK/Alabama/undefeated OSU. But if ND goes undefeated and OSU doesn't, I could see the B1G squeezed out...would not be surprised to see a one-loss champion from PAC12, B12, B1G, even ACC looked over for a second SEC team...

Time will tell, but an undefeated ND will certainly muddy the waters for the rest of the conferences...
