Notre Dame sneaked into the No. 4 spot in the College Football Playoff on Sunday, edging out teams like Texas A&M and the University of Cincinnati, and will have to play Alabama in the semifinal.
College Football Playoff committee chairman Gary Barta told ESPN what was separating the Fighting Irish, the Aggies and the Bearcats. Notre Dame lost to Clemson on Saturday, Texas A&M only had one loss which was to Alabama, and Cincinnati finished undefeated but plays in the American Athletic Conference, which is seen not to be as competitive as the Power Five conferences like the SEC or Big 10.
