ND isn't really an ACC team.

The SEC had teams in the Peavh, Orange, and Cotton.  And Bama.

On the surface 0-6 is a pretty big black eye for the ACC, and B12 looks great with their 5-0.
 
But I think the CFP boogers stuff up. If the ACC only sent one team, then all the rest of the teams would have a played a step lower bowl match up and prolly would have faired better.
On the converse if OU was invited to the CFP, then each of the B12 teams would have a played a step up bowl, and prolly not faired as well.
Funny how you say this, but when it was true for the SEC, no one here bought in.  Hmmph.

Really? When the Big Ten was more than just OSU + 13 schlubs, we would get two (and a few times three IIRC) teams into BCS bowls. And we always mentioned how it screwed the lesser B1G teams by giving them tougher bowl competition.

I suppose conferences could turn down invites to the CFP and the NY6 bowls to try to pad their bowl records

doubt that would buy them much respect

play the games and win the games

We just got back yesterday afternoon from a week of camping, so I won't bother taking down the decorations until next weekend.  Gonna be a long slow isolation-y January anyway, so plenty of time on the weekends for that.

Got the outside stuff taken down today because I don’t want to be the last house in the neighborhood with Christmas stuff still up.  Probably get the tree and inside decorations next weekend.  The first year we were married we had the tree still up past Valentine’s Day. We had better things to do with our weekends.  Ah, newlywed days.
