This is what I brought up the other day when I said Notre Dame really has no benefit to take less money to join the ACC.
I’ve said this is going to be their next move, they’re going to make it where they own the playoff and have much more money.
That would mean 8 SEC & Big Ten teams get a bid. Leaving 4 spots. Would think then the ACC and Big 12 champ would be an auto bid. I’m not sure about the G4 in this case. Would be much harder for the ACC to get 2 bids.
And for those to say what can we do to fight it? There’s nothing we can do, the SEC and Big Ten have all the power. This is why Clemson and FSU are fighting to leave. It’s why Notre Dame holds a bigger bargaining chip with our league, the brands sadly hold some weight to fans because they wouldn’t consider a playoff legit if a few certain brands are left out.
A super Big 12 is the life raft. We need to be ready.
