Miami is a football member, ND is not. End of discussion. You want advocacy, join a conference. I think the beef is that Notre Dame has basically stabilized the ACC for the last decade so pushing them away has consequences (very plausibly complete implosion). Clemson must have an inkling that ND is getting tired of dealing with the ACC, would explain their twelve game series the two signed earlier this year. Quote

The collapse has been ongoing for years and people have just been going through the motions. Once the 4-team playoff started, it started dying. When McCaffrey sat out the bowl game people squealed about quitting on the team, it started dying more. Now, its just common knowledge that even projected day 2 and day 3 guys may not play because they don't want to get hurt in an exhibition game. Every year when SEC teams lose bowl games, the narrative is "well they just didn't care." Tons of guys are announcing intention to transfer now. Now that there is a playoff, teams who had legit aspirations of making it to the playoff are not going to want to play. Its like going to the NIT or one of the other consolation tournaments in basketball. Notre Dame (and others) are just acknowledging that the games don't matter anymore and they are not going to pretend otherwise. The NCAA would do well to just let teams sit at home and have a couple weeks of practice if they want. 2 Quote

In 2023, Florida State had twenty plus players opt out of their bowl game after an undefeated season. Most of them werent starters. It seems petty clear this is probably going to be a thing moving forward. Quote

Let's not forget ND took care of these same Georgia Bulldogs led by Gunner Stockton in last year's playoffs and ND has a better QB this year. So yeah 10-2 at least. Quote
