Message: [QUOTE="Fishy, post: 1050966, member: 38"] The only want I can see Notre Dame being forced into a conference is if they somehow ride a sweetheart schedule into the playoff and bumps an SEC or Big 10 team that ran the gauntlet - but there's a 12 year deal in place for this structure so even that would not be immediate. With respect to the Twitter fellow who believes Notre Dame is heading into the ACC fold, I just cannot see it. Part of Notre Dame's "mystique" and desire to stay independent is that much of the bloom comes off the rose if they're finishing third, fourth, sixth or whatever in conference every year. It's nice to have a bad year and not have to deal with standings. [/QUOTE]
