Just wanted to fix a couple positions for you. But as for the game I’m expecting another close game. Could go either way. The biggest impact will be the return of Skalski and the improvement for Clemson on that side of the ball. I’m going to stick to my homer roots though and say the Irish squeak it out.

If Notre Dame wins:

1. Alabama

2. Notre Dame

3. Ohio State

4. Texas A&M

This looks right.  The 4th spot is really the only question.  Would the committee take a two-loss non-champ over a one-loss non-champ?  There's no precedent of this one, and I think you'd be hard pressed to imagine a two-loss conference champ (Oklahoma) would overtake them.  I'd probably say A&M at 95%, Clemson at 5%.  But it'd probably depend on how bad Clemson looks.

Again, probably right.  Although, this one is closer.  A&M probably has a legitimate argument for this one as well.  Both have one losses to eventual playoff teams (Alabama for A&M, Clemson for Notre Dame).  I'd argue A&M's loss is the "better" loss, but that probably doesn't hold much weight.  Probably comes down to resume.  A&M's win over Florida is the best win of both teams.  A&M has quality wins (.500 or better) over two teams (Florida and Auburn).  Notre Dame has four (North Carolina, Boston College, Pittsburgh, and Clemson).  As long as Notre Dame doesn't get blown out, I think they're #4 in this scenario.
