CFP committee chairman Hunter yur yurachek said the committee decided to skip Miami over BYU after the Cougars lost to the Big 12 Champion red. It was Bayu’s second loss to Texas Tech during the season.
Afterward, Yurachek said the Committee did a moderate comparison between Notre Dame and Miami and decided to keep a watchful eye on the bracket.
“You look at those two teams on paper and they’re almost equal in terms of their ability to plan, their regular opponents, their results and their regular opponents, but we had to go back and beat them,” Yurachek said. “I called the committee members to go back and watch that game because it was so late and we got an interesting debate from our coaches about how they looked.
“With that in mind, we gave Miami the nod over Notre Dame in that 10 spot.”
