With the losses in the PAC yesterday, Stanford and Utah, that only leaves OU and Notre Dame left for the last playoff team, IMO. And, since Stanford lost, a ND win isn't going be as impressive as had they beat a one loss Stanford team. Besides, given a choice between a one loss OU squad versus a one loss ND team, I think the CFP committee would have to consider that a OU - Clemson game would trump a rematch between the Tigers and Domers. Everything that OU needed to make the playoffs happened yesterday. Now it's all up to the team and coaches to win out. Unbelievable when you think about how the world felt after the RRR.
The only thing ND has going for them is that they killed Texas and have only lost to the #1 team according to CFP committee,
