ND is, and always has been, the media's ultimate darling. ESPN wants ND in the playoff because they bring more viewers than any other team. ND is the only college team with a true national audience.
And that's why they made absolutely certain ND made the playoff last year.

I know it's cart before horse and all that and we still need to win out, but here are who we want to win the games this week to give us a shot if we can win out:

Miami at ND: Miami
Unlikely we pass Miami. ND is probably eliminated with a loss, and a 9-3 SC will jump a 10-2 ND.
This ask just got a little more difficult. Malachi Toney out for the game. Interesting side note Dre Jacaobs could play in his spot. Would be nice to see him have a big game on a National spotlight game.

We will never jump a 10-2 ND squad, but if Miami can beat ND, and maybe just maybe SMU pulls the upset, then ND falls below #12.
