2024 College Football Playoff Shakeup: Which Surprising Teams Could Crash the 12-Team Field?

2024 College Football Playoff Shakeup: Which Surprising Teams Could Crash the 12-Team Field?

Expect Penn State to make the College Football Playoff at 11-1 with its best wins having come against middling Big Ten teams like Illinois, USC and Wisconsin. 

7. Notre Dame (8-1)

  • Current committee rank: No. 8 
  • TRACR: 26.6 (No. 8) 
  • Playoff potential: 84.1 (No. 9)  

The formula for the Irish is simple: Win out, and you’re in. Don’t, and you’re not. They’ll be favored all the way in against Virginia, Army and USC, but the latter two aren’t walks.

Army has its own playoff aspirations and runs a more effective version of the flexbone offense that Notre Dame beat against Navy in Week 9. USC is a road game, and the Trojans are more dangerous than a 4-5 record with five one-score losses indicates. Notre Dame erased its margin for error when it lost to NIU in Week 2.
