It's actually pretty funny. Except for fans of Oregon and Kansas State, everyone else in the country wants to see ND get into the BCS championship game:

1.The networks, and advertisers, because a Bama/ND game will be HUGE
2. ND fans all over the country..the famed "subway alumni"
3. ND haters all over the country, and there are zillions..who want to see the Irish get squished by the Tide..

ND has the most fans.

Ask the average person who the best team is, and they’ll say Alabama.

Plus, it would be the matching of two legendary programs. No doubt it would be a huge ratings winner.
