LIVE: College football playoff power rankings announced as Notre Dame drives the main trailer” while Alabama still crossing the bridge and penn state drowning in the compound swimming pool” here is the full ranks from 1-12…
The Notre Dame football team may have fallen a little in the AP Polls, but we still have one more playoff prediction to see how accurate we can get things before the official College Football Playoff rankings are announced tomorrow night (did anyone check the date before making that decision?).
The good news is that the Irish appear to be guaranteed a spot in the playoffs despite the decline in the AP poll. In fact, it appears quite likely that the Blue and Gold will host a playoff game given the remainder of the schedule and the turmoil that has been occurring in the Power conferences.
Only a week remains until the College Football Playoffs final rankings are announced. Surprisingly, the Notre Dame football team’s season is almost gone. How quickly time passes when we’re enjoying ourselves. The Irish have been entertaining, too. despite losing to Northern Illinois in Week 2.
Notre Dame football is included in the Week 10 College Football Playoff forecast.

There were enough league team shuffles, as there have been most weeks this season, that the main lesson is that Notre Dame was absolutely right to avoid becoming involved in that conflict.
Additionally, it appears that the Irish will host a game and be the first team to play the only Group of 5 squad in the field, just ahead of the College Football Playoffs rankings. The Notre Dame football squad will play Ashton Jeanty and Boise State if the rankings turn out this way. That game is going to be amazing.
