After all of the speculation over the last few hours, Notre Dame is officially in the 2018 College Football Playoffs for the first time in program history! The undefeated Fighting Irish navigated the regular season 12-0 and just moments ago we found out that the Selection Committee ranked the Irish 3rd in their final rankings. Notre Dame will no face the Clemson Tigers in the semi-final.
The final top 4 rankings released just now look like this:
- Alabama
- Clemson
- Notre Dame
- Oklahoma
There has been a lot of conjecture over what the final rankings should have been thanks for Georgia’s narrow loss last night to Alabama in the SEC Championship.
