Yes, the Irish are one of the best 12 teams in the country. However, they beat one team in the top 25, USC, and are 0-2 vs. CFP teams this year. I have said they should have been in over a 3 loss Alabama team, but I can see why Bama made it in over the Irish, they have quality wins , including against CFP teams which the Irish don’t. As I previously have said many times, if they had beaten A&M or Miami this all would have been a moot point. Where you completely lose me is saying the champion will have an asterisk and be a tainted title. 💩, whoever wins will have earned it, which the Irish failed to earn a CFP invite
