Does Notre Dame deserve to be in? Are they one of the 4 BEST

What say you? I am not asking whether they will get in, because they are in. I am asking if you think they are one of the 4 best teams in the nation. Would they beat Georgia, the Sooners, and Ohio State?

Yes, they deserve to be in. I know there is a lot of ND hate out there, but they are an undefeated major college football team. They absolutely should be in the playoff.

Okay they deserve to be in. That said, do you think they are one of the 4 best and would they beat and are they better than Georgia, Oklahoma, and Ohio State?

that's why we have playoffs, so we can answer questions like "would so and so beat so and so?" And we already know the answer when it comes to Georgia: no, they would not beat Alabama. Ergo, they are not in.Quod Erat Demonstrandum.

deserve and best are two different criteria

In my opinion, our current system was designed as a “plus one” to old BCS to solve for years that had more than two potential candidates to play in BCS title game. This year we have three potential BCS candidates. (Clemson, Bama and ND all undeafeated. Under old BCS, one of those three get left out.
Since this new format is supposed to fix the old one, how could you leave ND out?

Teams that deserve to be in get in the playoffs, as well as one or two that don’t.

Notre Dame does because they are undefeated and have

victories over ranked teams.
If they had one loss, then Ohio State should get in over them.

They beat an overrated Michigan team in week 1 and Northwestern and not that convincingly in either. They beat nobody. I am talking Notre Dame. Ohio State blew both of those teams out. I am not saying ND shouldn't be in, but they are not a 4 best.

I have no idea who the 4 best teams are. Nobody does.
