I doubt that. NBC is so desperate for shows that people actually watch that a mediocre ND team is gold for them.

Another thing about ND is that I think they very well might be in danger of losing quite a few of those B1G schools on their schedule. I say this because of the recent scheduling agreement between the B1G and the Pac-12. If I was Michigan I wouldnt want to play ND and USC in the same season and then go through a rigorous conference schedule.
Either way, I am curious to see how ND looks at possible conference alignment.

That's a very good point about the scheduling. I'm not going to worry about ND until they get good enough to actually be considered for this playoff.
