The CFP committee got it right: 1. Alabama 2. Clemson 3. Notre Dame 4. Oklahoma. Ohio State made strong case closing with Ws over Michigan and Northwestern but bad loss to Purdue. Georgia worthy of discussion but lost twice, to LSU and Bama backup QB. Now, expansion likely looms.

Everyone talked about round 4 of Alabama vs Clemson. We will have round 4 of Clemson vs. Notre Dame. Difference is the later will take 42 years.

In 5-year history of @CFBPlayoff, Alabama and Clemson have alternated as No. 1 seeds. Bama in 2014, 2016 & 2018; Clemson in 2015 & 2017
