Any ND fan that thought they had a chance in this game was being delusional. Bama is on another level, and ND got into this game by a series of flukes and a poor schedule (only good win was against Stanford and that was before Hogan took over and they started playing well).
That said, ND fans should still be excited. They are clearly headed in the right direction with a great head coach. They'll have their shot.

I wouldn't say that is automatic.
Bama will be there; LSU will be there; Texas A&M will be there; Oregon will be there and probably the scumbags from Columbus.
Notre Dame got exposed badly ... it loses Reddick; Eifert; three starting OLmen; Lewis-Moore, Te'o, Fox and Motta. It depends on what the backups are like.

I disagree about ND's schedule. They had a very tough schedule with no cupcakes. Their SOS was stronger than Bama's. ND beat 9 teams who appeared in bowl game. Another would have been Miami had they not banned themselves. Is there another team with more? Yes they were overrated and maybe not a top 2 team but they played a very challenging schedule and deserved to be in the championship game.

That is all fine and dandy. But, when you look at that schedule at the end of the season compared to what it looked like at the beginning, its not that strong of a slate.
Terrible: Wake and BC Bad Bowl teams: Pitt (got major break in that game - should have lost), USC, Purdue, Navy Average Bowl Teams: Sparty, Michigan, BYU Only Good wins: Oklahoma and Stanford (got a major break in that game)
Miami - average team I guess.
Wasn't a very challenging schedule when you look at it.
PSU is better than ND, especially the team we saw play last night

They beat 10 bowl eligible teams with a .500 or better record. Who else has done that? I don't even want to defend ND but I was responding to someone who said their schedule was poor. It wasn't.
