Conference championship weekend is officially over and the short story is that not of enough good things happened to push the Notre Dame Fighting Irish into the college football playoff. The day started fun enough with the Baylor Bears taking down the Oklahoma State Cowboys by an inch in the Big 12 championship game.
And that was all the joy we had as hope died a slow death in the after noon and evening. Georgia lost to Alabama, Cincinnati beat Houston, and Michigan took care of a terrible Iowa team. While the seeding will be worked out soon enough by the committee, I imagine the rankings will look like this:
Coming in HOT at #5 will likely be the Irish.
