If the Irish resume gets them a tournament bid, they should then be seeded based on their potential with Colson. Otherwise, some 5 seed is going to get a complete screwing!
Seeding Notre Dame

they barely got by Pitt today. Pretty pathetic for a team that should be playing harder than any team in the country this week.
This. They shot 16% today in the 2H against one of the worst Power 5 teams in Pitt. Colson is outstanding but this year’s ND team had plenty of holes either way.
They’re not worried about seeding they’re worried about getting in. I’m not sure a win tomorrow gets them in.
They need to reserve the play-in games for teams that have bad luck with injuries such as ND. Punish them by making them play an extra game to get to the filed of 64. I would much rather ND be in the tourney over Alabama, UCLA, Baylor, Syracuse etc.
Isn't the goal to get the top 68 teams? No question that ND is easily a top 64 team with Colson. If he was out for the year then I get the explanation but he is now back and I think ND deserves to get in.
While college sports seem obsessed with advancing the best teams, it should be about the best seasons. Compare Notre Dame to any other team and the team that gets more value for its season should be favored without regard to injuries.
How did Bama get into the playoffs then?
Ohio State, Wisconsin, Auburn and USC all had better seasons and I can make the case a couple other teams did also. Bama had around the 8th to 10th best season.
