For Irish, Mission Is Clear: Just Win, Baby

Win and you’re in.

That’s the position Notre Dame has put itself in with an 8-0 start to the regular season.

The season’s first College Football Playoff rankings were announced on Tuesday night and the Irish landed at #4. There will undoubtedly be changes in the rankings – we’re pretty much assured of some movement following Saturday’s showdown between #1 Alabama and #3 LSU. Clemson rounded out the top four at #2.
