If Notre Dame goes undefeated, they will be in the championship game. I am not a Notre Dame fan, but the fact is that Notre Dame has a much broader and larger fan base than any other school. Why do you think NBC renewed their contract with Notre Dame during the bad years? Television will dictate that Notre Dame will be in the championship game and the SEC winner will play the team left out. This is all predicated on KSU and Oregon also going undefeated. Hopefully I am wrong.
Just looked at the BCS ratings: http://espn.go.com/college-football/bcs
Only way ND gets in is if they go undefeated and KSU or Oregon loses.
Why do you hope you are wrong? Notre Dame and KSU have one common opponent: Oklahoma. KSU lucked out. Notre Dame destroyed them.
