@@LucasKelley-gk6bc Nope. Y’all can’t blame Coach Franklin this time. If Allar doesn’t throw that horrible interception, y’all go to overtime and have a chance to win.
Angeli going 6-7 and getting the Irish a FG before half-time was huge. They were being dominated before that and that 2 minute drive swung the momentum. Leonard came out swinging in the 3rd quarter, great mid-game adjustments by coach Freeman. Love this team!
Angeli definitely deserves a ton of credit. Not just for his performance tonight but also for being a great teammate and team player. He could have gone to the portal after CJ AND riley signed on, but he stuck it out and put in a clutch role when ND needed him. What a great young man.
Totally agree. Every play on every snap of every game matters. Especially in CFB where momentum is EVERYTHING. Congrats to the irish, you guys have proved a lot of people wrong this year and gotten better each week.
That game was entirely on Riley Leonard. I still think he should have been a Heisman finalist for his leadership abilities. He'll be an NFL starter someday.

One of the best football games I have ever seen at college level. Can we not thank the football Gods for the playoff brackets? This is compelling evidence that the Gods knew exactly how to select the head to put the Laurel wreath on. Penn State you have no reason to be ashamed. That was as good of a competition between two fabulous programs you will ever see.
So proud of ND! At least my favorite college team isnt letting me down 😂 what a tough, physical game. So much credit to Penn State, this was some old school football.
Marcus Freeman deserved to win NCAA coach of the year. Even against Northern Illinois, he put his team in a position to win on a 62-yard FG after Leonard kept throwing interceptions. The media and a lot of fans wanted Leonard benched, but Freeman never entertained the idea of benching him after what a star Leonard was at Duke. This team is one of the best Notre Dame teams in modern history. No Brian Kelly, Everett Golson, imaginary girlfriends, or surviving bad Pittsburgh and USC teams. This team will actually BELONG on the field with either Ohio State or Texas, no matter what the oddsmakers say.
Penn State just played Notre Dame bell-to-bell after ND skull-dragged the SEC champion. That was not a sentence I was expecting to be able to say about the semi-finals when this season began. Welcome to your first natty in the CFP era, Fighting Irish! Side note: can people stop whining about SMU, Boise State, and Indiana now? Penn State and Notre Dame are just that good. Losing to either of them (blowout or not) isn't any worse than, say, getting blown out at Ohio State. It's going to happen with 12 teams, regardless of who fills the last few slots or who wins what conference.
PSU is a good team but the problem with them is they struggle to beat teams with equal talent or better. They were 0-3 this year and Franklin's record against the top teams is horrible that's their problem and why people say PSU can't win big games.
@@rc2788 0-3 against top teams or 0-3 against teams with equal talent or better? Boise and SMU don't have Penn State's talent, but they're still top 10 (and rightfully so, playoff losses notwithstanding).
@@whydoineedachanneltocommen8755 0-3 against teams of equal talent or better, they played well in all 3 games but the fact remains they lost all of them.
Yah, He was the one guy that was just a walking mismatch. Even Xavier Watts as good as he is can't cover Warren man to man. ND did NOT play a great game tonight but still found a way to win. I just hope Denbrock calls a better game against whoever ends up in the Championship game. The way I see it, you Dawgs had a better defense than Penn State but their offense was more potent. Hopefully we play you guys again soon. Go Irish, Go Dawgs.
I'm a Texas fan but I don't remember a game this exciting that I've watched in a long while! Both of these teams were stellar ! It was some of the best college football I have had the pleasure of watching!
@@cristianhcm1914 hes not wrong. implications, culture, narrative and just hard core hard nose football is what we watched, all with a shot at the title on the line. a 27-24 game like this is FAR more exciting than even the 150 point game LSU and TA&M had in 2018 or Texas winning in 7OT. It hits different.
The goal line stand vs OU with Dillon Gabriel? Or when OU pulled Spencer Rattler and put in Caleb Williams for the come behind win? Or did you block those out?
@@cristianhcm1914Notre Dame missing their best CB who's gonna be a first or 2nd round pick, and got a couple offensive line-men out too, and their o-line was already young to begin with.
No matter what happens in the title game, this has been a great historic year for ND football. Being part of the first 12 team playoff in college football. Hosting a playoff championship game in South Bend. Winning both the Sugar bowl and Orange bowl in the same season, only a week apart. A lot of firsts
I am a 59 year old nd fan and this will be a legendary team if they can get 1 more...I remember the great 73,77, 88 champions and at very least they have the same amount of championship heart as those 3 ...best season since 1993
@@pp3k3jamailLast year ND gift wrapped OSU a final possession when all they had to do was run out the clock. Do you really think this year’s team is significantly better than last year’s?
Yes, who you are at the lowest of lows is character telling, and this goes far and above what happens on that field. Marcus Freeman is a leader of young men, and I hate to beat a dead horse but that is the bigger area where Brian Kelly lacks. And win or lose on The 20th, consider my mind blown away.
@@ZK2195 we've been hearing that same narrative about ND for 2 weeks now, along with all the excuses when it didn't happen. There's a reason the game is decided on the field and not in the court of public opinion on TH-cam
For ND to bounce back mentally at the end when the INT in the endzone got wiped out due to a PI penalty and to respond in the way that they did to close it out. Back to back weeks of classic games. Texas-Arizona St and now PSU-ND
Penn state played a solid game except for 2 glaring plays. The long TD pass that tied the game by ND and the pick by #18 late. Just shows that the best TEAM on that day always wins
I wanna cry right now I'm so happy for ND. Been a fan for 15 years. Whole team banged up an they come in with the next man up mentality that's tough win or lose I'm so proud let's go get that natty!!!!
Notre Dame's always been of my favorite teams too. After all the failures they've had with coaches, Bob Davie, Ty Willingham, Charlie Weis, Brian Kelly, to name a few, they've finally found the perfect man for the program. Freeman is an incredible in-game coach, outstanding recruiter, and great motivator who keeps his players focused. Even in the week leading up to the Army game, he didn't take them lightly just because they're a service academy. He's going to get them to embrace the underdog role in the NC game.
I hear you. I cannot believe this is real right now. It is insane and has been a journey. No matter what happens in this last game, I am more proud than I have ever been as an ND fan.
Don't cry I already have now for a week after watching my ducks fold up and get hammered by Ohio state love college football love emotions congrats Notre dame unfortunately Ohio state is going to be in your way
The only team left of the last 4 that I could tolerate and they literally threw it away at the end. I guess go Buckeyes, and I am saying that as a Michigan fan.
@@area.man.your a real hater if u have to root for Ohio st over Texas as a Michigan fan. Ig cause Michigan beat them. But Michigan fan rooting for Notre dame or Ohio st is crazy. What did Texas do to u ? Anyway ☘️☘️☘️☘️ go Irish
If ND wins the natty, the only team to beat the national champions this season will be a MAC team, and one that didn't even make its conference title game. That is nuts. This is like 2007 all over again with the madness we have witnessed.
Notre dame proved that playing til the last whistle and great coaching they can trust the process and not be stopped. So yall need to stop saying OSU is got it in the bag
Nah Texas has a shot vs OSU, but winner of that matchup is gonna crush Notre Dame ngl. Felt like that before this game started and feel even stronger about it after. The QB play was not great on both sides
1st and 10. Allar takes the snap and there isn’t a gold helmet near within 15 yards of him. My man throws it short into triple coverage. He’s SO lucky to get that one back.
Yep. In no world should that be called. Ball is unplayable. Can't be caught. Based on this reffing and their calls I'd just throw intentional groundings as a QB and hope my WR are good enough actors to draw PI calls by pretending the ball is even remotely catch-able.
Best in the nation! Keep in mind they had 2 ints, in the end zone, taken away by bs penalties too. Realistically, psu only scores 10 legitimate points 😂😂
@RealAmericanStar they were not bad calls at all. Don't grab a guy's jersey and don't put your full body i to the receiver while not looking at the ball. Those two penalties were the true definition if holding and dpi. If you want to actually talk about garbage calls, how about all the holding ND did with their o-line and theur secondary. They were holding all game and and about 5 penalties were called against ND. Talk about garbage calling.
@@MrFreckles-1 Yeah no. In no world should a triple coverage under thrown ball be a PI in any league in the history of the world. Refs also missed a billion holding calls on PSU. Can't blame the refs for bad plays at the wrong time.
cam is such a clown. he'll hard cope once again this week and proceed to slander the losing team to the depths in which he was grinding their laps just 2 days prior. hes pathetic
Im starting to hate that clown! Been dogging us all yr! Making excuses every time we win! Georgia blows out Texas and then beats them again yet Texas is so much better than ND. What type of logic is that? Because Beck was out? Beck sucked all yr and that freshman was the only reason they beat Texas the second time. If Beck started we would've murdered them! He'll say Allar threw an int that's the only reason we won. But Leonard threw 2 ints and he won't mention that!
As a Notre Dame fan, I'll say that Florida State was absolutely ROBBED last year. And it seemed to hang over them this year too. Never been fond of FSU, but man did I feel for those guys after they got screwed. They deserved better.
@jimdebo3186 I definitely agree with you. But, after seeing them lose the way they did against Georgia, I would have rather them lose in the Orange Bowl like that instead of a National Semifinal game last year. It sucked, but, there's that old saying, "no use crying over spilt milk." We would have been demolished either way Have a good one 👍
Is that correct? Unbelievable. Honestly, that is Unbelievable! I have to think this is a combination of a Great Notre Dame Secondary, AND the Penn State Coaching Staff not calling for Allar to take many chances. They didn't really need to throw much tonight. The Penn State RBs (both, actually) were dominant most of the night. 3 TDs on the ground against that ND Defense, that is very impressive. What a game! What an amazing GAME!!! GO IRISH!
Fun fact: Penn States wideouts today had zero catches, zero yards, and zero touchdowns against Notre Dame tonight. Absolutely immaculate Penn State choke job.🙌😮💨
Riley was lucky his defense bailed him out. 2 ints is costly in big games. Allar was pressured a lot by blitzes. Al Golden deserves a lot of credit and a big pay raise
what I find insulting about this is I would have just watched this game on tv, but I cant because espn wont put this on any cbs or abc channel it has to be on espn, which to me will ruin the college football playoff, it should be broadcast all over the networks for free, to endorse and promote college football, I think all this does is alienate it
Easily one of the greatest College Playoff games in College Playoff history. Can't say anything else other than that! Tough break for Penn State. Congrats Notre Dame. Good luck in the Championship game. Go Irish! ☘️
Did you see the Penn state schedule. They played glorified MAC teams. ND had a tougher road. This wasn’t exactly a gauntlet battle tested Penn State team.
@@SwantonBomb43 This game will be seen as one of the best Notre Dame victories of all time. Especially when there were so many doubts about Leonards ability to go the distance. They've shown a lot of relentless grit this year that has been missing in the past. They def have a good chance to win it all with this group. One of the more entertaining teams to watch since the Brady Quinn era in my opinion.
Notre Dame fans.. when y’all lost to N. Illinois earlier in the season, at that point did you imagine you’d be where you are now? You were thinking.. “Man.. it’s gonna be a rough season.” Congratulations, this team has earned it.
Like the year SC lost to Alabama 51-6 to start the yr. I believe SC lost another game and Max Browne was benched. Sam Darnold then won like 11 in a row or it was an 11 win season. I don't remember, but SC won the Rose Bowl. I mean, who would have guessed that after an embarrassing loss.
James Franklin has a way of losing ALL big games! No business trying to go down the field with 40 second s left, especially when your qb has been subpar all night. Go to o t and take your chance. Ridiculous
You're a joke of you think that was Franklin's fault. If you have a chance to go 40 yards and go the the national championship, you take it. Allar made a pass that was neither smart nor good. It was a bad pass, and a stupid one at that. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE looks to Franklin as a scapegoat for everything now, and it actually has to stop. He put this team in a spot to compete and they let him down
Penn state has never developed a good QB. It’s really, really frustrating watching this insanely talented defense and offense get let down because of that.
Way to go fighting Irish. What a game. I grew up watching notre dame football with my dad who was a huge fan. I'm sure he is jumping up and down in heaven watching this game.

The narrative:
Notre Dame can’t compete with the best.
The reality:
Notre Dame is in the National Championship.
Marcus Freeman is an elite Head Coach.
Real
for a long time that narrative was legitimate based on the past two decades and then their inconsistency on schedules
✊🏾
georgia didn’t have beck
Northern Illinois is still ND daddy 😂
For a team that hasn’t won a major bowl in 33 years, they now have 2 major bowl victories in the same season 😂
No one will remember at all if they don’t win the next game
@@Jleed989 wrong
Brian Kelly is the loser in all of this
@@Jleed989 Whatever you say champ, the haters were seething that ND broke the streak last week and are already in here coping with "but but but they will get blown out by OSU"
That's the Marcus Freeman effect. ND just needed a good coach. OR at least a good coach that can WIN BIG GAMES. Big Game Brian Kelly was not him.
One of the best football games I have ever seen at college level. Can we not thank the football Gods for the playoff brackets? This is compelling evidence that the Gods knew exactly how to select the head to put the Laurel wreath on. Penn State you have no reason to be ashamed. That was as good of a competition between two fabulous programs you will ever see.
So proud of ND! At least my favorite college team isnt letting me down 😂 what a tough, physical game. So much credit to Penn State, this was some old school football.
This game is SICK!!!
Marcus Freeman deserved to win NCAA coach of the year. Even against Northern Illinois, he put his team in a position to win on a 62-yard FG after Leonard kept throwing interceptions. The media and a lot of fans wanted Leonard benched, but Freeman never entertained the idea of benching him after what a star Leonard was at Duke. This team is one of the best Notre Dame teams in modern history. No Brian Kelly, Everett Golson, imaginary girlfriends, or surviving bad Pittsburgh and USC teams. This team will actually BELONG on the field with either Ohio State or Texas, no matter what the oddsmakers say.
They were 10-3 last year
I'm sorry. But as an ND fan, Angelli is the better QB. ND wouldn't have gotten those 3pts at the end of the 1st half if Leonard was at the helm
I’m sorry but nobody has a chance against Ohio State
@@nicksantoro868 Angeli is a one-trick pony. He doesn't have Riley Leonard's power or elusiveness. Tackling Leonard is like trying to tackle Big Ben.
No they won't sorry bro
Penn State just played Notre Dame bell-to-bell after ND skull-dragged the SEC champion. That was not a sentence I was expecting to be able to say about the semi-finals when this season began. Welcome to your first natty in the CFP era, Fighting Irish!
Side note: can people stop whining about SMU, Boise State, and Indiana now? Penn State and Notre Dame are just that good. Losing to either of them (blowout or not) isn't any worse than, say, getting blown out at Ohio State. It's going to happen with 12 teams, regardless of who fills the last few slots or who wins what conference.
Well said
PSU is a good team but the problem with them is they struggle to beat teams with equal talent or better. They were 0-3 this year and Franklin's record against the top teams is horrible that's their problem and why people say PSU can't win big games.
@@rc2788 0-3 against top teams or 0-3 against teams with equal talent or better? Boise and SMU don't have Penn State's talent, but they're still top 10 (and rightfully so, playoff losses notwithstanding).
@@whydoineedachanneltocommen8755 0-3 against teams of equal talent or better, they played well in all 3 games but the fact remains they lost all of them.
Whistle to whistle
UGA fan here. Congrats to Notre Dame and well played Penn State!!! Tyler Warren is a freakin Unit man. Dude is borderline unstoppable. What a game!!!
No one cares that you’re a ga fan. You announced that sh!t like it’s credentials or something 😂
Yah, He was the one guy that was just a walking mismatch. Even Xavier Watts as good as he is can't cover Warren man to man. ND did NOT play a great game tonight but still found a way to win. I just hope Denbrock calls a better game against whoever ends up in the Championship game. The way I see it, you Dawgs had a better defense than Penn State but their offense was more potent. Hopefully we play you guys again soon. Go Irish, Go Dawgs.
He'll be leaving lol
Wow…what a game! Two teams left it all on the field. Just happy to see my Irish come out victorious! Helluva game Nittany Lions.
I'm a Texas fan but I don't remember a game this exciting that I've watched in a long while! Both of these teams were stellar ! It was some of the best college football I have had the pleasure of watching!
You can't remember a game this exciting?
How many games have you seen ... 3 ?
@@cristianhcm1914 hes not wrong. implications, culture, narrative and just hard core hard nose football is what we watched, all with a shot at the title on the line. a 27-24 game like this is FAR more exciting than even the 150 point game LSU and TA&M had in 2018 or Texas winning in 7OT. It hits different.
Penn State was definitely not stellar with such poor QB play
The goal line stand vs OU with Dillon Gabriel? Or when OU pulled Spencer Rattler and put in Caleb Williams for the come behind win? Or did you block those out?
Hook 'em Beat tOSU 🤘🏾
They had to beat the SEC champion and this BEAST Penn State team to be in this situation. Well deserved. A phenomenal accomplishment.
An SEC champion with most of its players out?... think before you write a comment, bro!
Btw, I hope ND wins it all.

@@cristianhcm1914 We'll have the last laugh after Texas beats Ohio State and the B1G gets shut out of the CFP Championship.
What a game. Two teams left it out there on the field; but in the end, ND is going to the national championship. PLAY LIKE A CHAMPION TODAY
THIS is why the playoffs were made. No cap just sensation.
Everyone on both teams did except that boneheaded PSU QB. The kid is an idiot
Never even expected a game like this tonight. Thought one of these teams would start to pull away, but the momentum switches were amazing
Wow what a game by both coaches overall one of the best coaches games I’ve seen by both teams combined and overall a great game 💯
No matter what happens in the title game, this has been a great historic year for ND football. Being part of the first 12 team playoff in college football. Hosting a playoff championship game in South Bend. Winning both the Sugar bowl and Orange bowl in the same season, only a week apart. A lot of firsts
It’s there year, they reopened the ND church.
I am a 59 year old nd fan and this will be a legendary team if they can get 1 more...I remember the great 73,77, 88 champions and at very least they have the same amount of championship heart as those 3 ...best season since 1993

I like this team but I believe they're gonna get stomped in the championship I'm rooting for them but I just don't see it
Quick reminder: this is a team that lost to a Northern Illinois. Which means that growth wins games.
which means that Northern Illinois should be in the championship**... come on committee!
Yes, who you are at the lowest of lows is character telling, and this goes far and above what happens on that field. Marcus Freeman is a leader of young men, and I hate to beat a dead horse but that is the bigger area where Brian Kelly lacks. And win or lose on
The 20th, consider my mind blown away.
northern illinois is historically a good team never to be slept on.
I’d rather be undefeated

Fantastic ballgame. Great effort and play by both teams. Great coaching on both sides. Great job men. Congrats golden domers.
That's one of the best 2 yard runs I have ever seen.
This game was emotional roller coaster 😅
For ND to bounce back mentally at the end when the INT in the endzone got wiped out due to a PI penalty and to respond in the way that they did to close it out. Back to back weeks of classic games. Texas-Arizona St and now PSU-ND
ND > PSU + Refs
Penn state played a solid game except for 2 glaring plays. The long TD pass that tied the game by ND and the pick by #18 late. Just shows that the best TEAM on that day always wins
Indeed, no stink on Penn, a tough worthy team.
Don't forget the dropped pass for a TD by #10 of Penn State, that resulted in a field goal instead! Ultimately cost the game for Penn State!!!

Congratulations Notre Dame, Marcus Freeman, and ALL of the Players and Fans!
Wow... just WOW!

From NIU to this. Great job ND and Freeman.
I wanna cry right now I'm so happy for ND. Been a fan for 15 years. Whole team banged up an they come in with the next man up mentality that's tough win or lose I'm so proud let's go get that natty!!!!
1 more game. Save those happy tears
Notre Dame's always been of my favorite teams too. After all the failures they've had with coaches, Bob Davie, Ty Willingham, Charlie Weis, Brian Kelly, to name a few, they've finally found the perfect man for the program. Freeman is an incredible in-game coach, outstanding recruiter, and great motivator who keeps his players focused. Even in the week leading up to the Army game, he didn't take them lightly just because they're a service academy. He's going to get them to embrace the underdog role in the NC game.
I hear you. I cannot believe this is real right now. It is insane and has been a journey. No matter what happens in this last game, I am more proud than I have ever been as an ND fan.
Don't cry I already have now for a week after watching my ducks fold up and get hammered by Ohio state love college football love emotions congrats Notre dame unfortunately Ohio state is going to be in your way
This game was crazy ngl
I FOUND U AGAIN :D
Great game. Thank you football gods.
Such a good game, congrats to PSU as well. Go Irish!!!
Drew allar yet again with another dumb pass to finish our season Just gut wrenching to watch.SMH.
The only team left of the last 4 that I could tolerate and they literally threw it away at the end. I guess go Buckeyes, and I am saying that as a Michigan fan.
@@area.man.your a real hater if u have to root for Ohio st over Texas as a Michigan fan. Ig cause Michigan beat them. But Michigan fan rooting for Notre dame or Ohio st is crazy. What did Texas do to u ? Anyway ☘️☘️☘️☘️ go Irish

with all the injuries , they need it
From losing to NIU to going to the natty. That's what I call character growth
Thank you NIU for helping to light that fire in this team!!!!
NIU be like ‘doesn’t that make us national champions’
Right like that's crazy!
If ND wins the natty, the only team to beat the national champions this season will be a MAC team, and one that didn't even make its conference title game. That is nuts.
This is like 2007 all over again with the madness we have witnessed.
Yes!
what a ridiculous game. very very proud of my nittany lions this season.
Why? They still always lose the big games. James Franklins record against top 10 teams is atrocious
Haven’t seen teams played with such drive in a long time
So much focus and drive
Good game
James Franklin is the first head coach in CFB history to be on the hot seat after winning two playoff games
Right? And he's gonna get smoke for this one even though Drew Allar threw it away, and almost threw it away earlier if it wasn't for a lucky PI
He's not in the hot seat 🙄
@@matthewhunter6421 Not saying I agree with it, but I feel very confident in saying there are many Penn St fans that would prefer a new coach
@@matthewhunter6421 he is, in lot of fans he showed no leadership, stupid play calls

Notre dame proved that playing til the last whistle and great coaching they can trust the process and not be stopped. So yall need to stop saying OSU is got it in the bag
OSU has it in the bag
They’ll need to rely on OSU/Texas playing down. This was a good story but I don’t see the happy ending.
Nah Texas has a shot vs OSU, but winner of that matchup is gonna crush Notre Dame ngl. Felt like that before this game started and feel even stronger about it after. The QB play was not great on both sides

@@MrCruelsafixThey may get shits bag
GREAT GAME TO WATCH 💯!
Jaden Greathouse juked and broke two players ankles lol
More like the defender slipped.
1st and 10.
Allar takes the snap and there isn’t a gold helmet near within 15 yards of him.
My man throws it short into triple coverage.
He’s SO lucky to get that one back.
Yep. In no world should that be called. Ball is unplayable. Can't be caught. Based on this reffing and their calls I'd just throw intentional groundings as a QB and hope my WR are good enough actors to draw PI calls by pretending the ball is even remotely catch-able.
Notre Dame Defense is something else
Best in the nation!
Keep in mind they had 2 ints, in the end zone, taken away by bs penalties too. Realistically, psu only scores 10 legitimate points 😂😂
Helps when you’re facing a QB who can’t make his throws all night long. Secondary did seem great tho.
@RealAmericanStar they were not bad calls at all. Don't grab a guy's jersey and don't put your full body i to the receiver while not looking at the ball. Those two penalties were the true definition if holding and dpi. If you want to actually talk about garbage calls, how about all the holding ND did with their o-line and theur secondary. They were holding all game and and about 5 penalties were called against ND. Talk about garbage calling.
@@MrFreckles-1 I agree, they were fair calls.
@@MrFreckles-1 Yeah no. In no world should a triple coverage under thrown ball be a PI in any league in the history of the world. Refs also missed a billion holding calls on PSU. Can't blame the refs for bad plays at the wrong time.
Cam Newton punching the air right now
I was looking for this comment 😂😂😂
cam is such a clown. he'll hard cope once again this week and proceed to slander the losing team to the depths in which he was grinding their laps just 2 days prior. hes pathetic
Auburn edukashon
Im starting to hate that clown! Been dogging us all yr! Making excuses every time we win! Georgia blows out Texas and then beats them again yet Texas is so much better than ND. What type of logic is that? Because Beck was out? Beck sucked all yr and that freshman was the only reason they beat Texas the second time. If Beck started we would've murdered them! He'll say Allar threw an int that's the only reason we won. But Leonard threw 2 ints and he won't mention that!
Thank you ND!
Hats off to both teams! That was a classic to be remembered!
Not a Notre Dame fan, but congrats from a Florida State SEMINOLES fan. You earned it
As a Notre Dame fan, I'll say that Florida State was absolutely ROBBED last year. And it seemed to hang over them this year too. Never been fond of FSU, but man did I feel for those guys after they got screwed. They deserved better.
@jimdebo3186 I definitely agree with you. But, after seeing them lose the way they did against Georgia, I would have rather them lose in the Orange Bowl like that instead of a National Semifinal game last year. It sucked, but, there's that old saying, "no use crying over spilt milk." We would have been demolished either way Have a good one 👍

Unbelievable. Honestly, that is Unbelievable!
I have to think this is a combination of a Great Notre Dame Secondary, AND the Penn State Coaching Staff not calling for Allar to take many chances.
They didn't really need to throw much tonight. The Penn State RBs (both, actually) were dominant most of the night.
3 TDs on the ground against that ND Defense, that is very impressive.

I gotta say, the PSU QB should enter the portal after this game
the ND QB earned his NIL money
Why?
😂😂😂😂
Zero wrs yds that's y. Fleming is a good wr if u can't throw to him, that's the QBs fault
Riley was lucky his defense bailed him out. 2 ints is costly in big games. Allar was pressured a lot by blitzes. Al Golden deserves a lot of credit and a big pay raise

One of the more entertaining teams to watch since the Brady Quinn era in my opinion.
Notre Dame fans.. when y’all lost to N. Illinois earlier in the season, at that point did you imagine you’d be where you are now?
You were thinking.. “Man.. it’s gonna be a rough season.” Congratulations, this team has earned it.
Like the year SC lost to Alabama 51-6 to start the yr. I believe SC lost another game and Max Browne was benched. Sam Darnold then won like 11 in a row or it was an 11 win season. I don't remember, but SC won the Rose Bowl. I mean, who would have guessed that after an embarrassing loss.
Waited TWELVE YEARS for this moment go Irish
Very early congrats Notre dame🎉 hope the fighting Irish wins
James Franklin has a way of losing ALL big games! No business trying to go down the field with 40 second s left, especially when your qb has been subpar all night. Go to o t and take your chance. Ridiculous
You're a joke of you think that was Franklin's fault. If you have a chance to go 40 yards and go the the national championship, you take it. Allar made a pass that was neither smart nor good. It was a bad pass, and a stupid one at that. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE looks to Franklin as a scapegoat for everything now, and it actually has to stop. He put this team in a spot to compete and they let him down
I thought that too... Just run the ball til OT .. you might get lucky fr.
Penn state has never developed a good QB. It’s really, really frustrating watching this insanely talented defense and offense get let down because of that.
