2021 College Football Predictions, Playoff Picks

The 2021 college football season is now upon us, and another journey to a championship begins for teams across the country! For Notre Dame, the goal is to improve and go beyond simply being a playoff team and becoming a champion for the first time in over thirty years.

Of course, the same thing is being said by 127 other teams in college football, and two more - Alabama and Clemson - are looking to remain at the top of the sport.
