The college football regular season is over, and here comes the playoffs. Obviously, as an independent, Notre Dame won’t be participating this weekend, but the impact of some of these games could be huge. There are several scenarios in which the Irish are IN and OUT of the College Football Playoff due to certain results in the conference championship games.
None of the games really matter for Notre Dame’s future, but some do. The best-case scenario for Notre Dame is wins by Boise State, Georgia, Texas Tech and Virginia. According to Fanduel Sportsbookthese four teams are the favorites.

Mountain West
Boise State Broncos -4.5 VS UNLV Rebels
SECOND
Georgia Bulldogs -2.5 vs. Alabama Crimson Tide
Big 12
Texas Tech Red Raiders -12.5 vs. BYU Cougars
ACC
Virginia Cavaliers VS -3.5 Duke Blue Devils
If these four games go Notre Dame’s way (unlike a long slate of games over the past three weeks), the Irish’s chances of making the College Football Playoff are pretty good. FanDuel is currently heavy on the Irish to succeed with YES at -375.
