Notre Dame got back on track last week in a 66-7 dismantling of Purdue to move to 2-1 on the season. Next up for the Irish is a home date with Miami University on Saturday as Notre Dame looks to avoid another upset-minded MAC opponent.

Where is Notre Dame on track to head this post season, and did the win against Purdue get anyone to change their minds about the playoff hopes for the Fighting Irish?

Here is a handful of the national bowl projections we found for Notre Dame following its Week 3 victory at Purdue.
