Notre Dame spent years being told it needed to join a conference.
Now the CFP is eliminating conference championship games — and coaches inside those conferences are openly asking why the leagues even need to exist.
Irish fans are allowed to enjoy the irony.

Sir you are either the dumbest person to ever walk the face of the earth or you are definitely not being serious.

The CFP just announced rules designed to push major programs toward tougher schedules.
One day later, Florida found a way out of playing Notre Dame.
That makes all the usual criticism about the Irish schedule look a little different.

Me when coaches who screamed "JOIN A CONFERENCE" at Notre Dame are suddenly asking what the point of conferences is in the new 24-team College Football Playoff world.

Marcus Freeman could have danced around the question.
Instead, he admitted exactly what everyone already knows: a 24-team playoff gives Notre Dame more room for mistakes — and he’s perfectly happy to take it.

Notre Dame’s special CFP protection is disappearing.
That sounds like bad news until you look at what replaces it.
A 24-team field and new scheduling rules may actually leave the Irish in a stronger position than before.

Why was Sarkisian even asked this question?

The big losers in the 24-team college football playoff are the bowls (which will all but die starting next year)
And FCS teams, who factor in paydays to lose into their budgets every year and will now see those opportunities cut in half at least.

I'm about as far away from a Michigan fan as one can be, but Kyle Whittingham not knowing that Ohio State is a pretty big game left on the schedule is absolutely insane

Kyle Whittingham on keeping Michigan motivated for its last 3 games:
"It's my job as a coach to rally them back up and get them ready to compete for these last three games. ... I don't know, are there any more trophies in these last three games? I don't think there's any more trophies. Anyway..."

Mario Cristobal opened his postgame press conference by questioning the call that helped end Miami’s comeback.
Then he suggested Miami knew what kind of officiating it would get in South Bend.
There’s one rather inconvenient detail about that argument.

“Out here?”
Brosef, it’s not like the officials all live in South Bend. They’re ACC officials.
Miami coach Mario Cristobal was very unhappy about the way this play was officiated.
“Really disappointed that they negated Elija Lofton’s touchdown with two hands on the ball and two feet in bounds.
“But like we told the team before we left Miami, do not leave it in the hands of the officials because that’s what you’re going to get out here.” @On3

Notre Dame has talked about "next man up" this season but it appears that we've found where their depth at corner ends.
For now at least, Mark Zackery is getting dominated by every receiver he lines up against.
Not all his fault, he hasn't had a ton of playing time. But it's rough.

Barkate is absolutely owning Mark Zackery. Chris Ash is going to need to find something else to do, assuming Leonard Moore can't return

Despite that touchdown pass, Mensah is just 11 for 22 tonight for 125 yards. He has equaled his season high in incomplete passes.
This game could end up being a Heisman elimination game and at the moment, CJ Carr is not the one being eliminated.
