First game on Friday night, what a scene it was in snowy South Bend, Indiana for the in-state
00:10
showdown between Notre Dame and Indiana.
00:13
That's 7-10 split.
00:15
Notre Dame wins 27-17.
00:17
This actually, the lowest margin in the opening round, it wasn't really all that close.
00:24
It was 27-3 for a good majority of the game before IU scored two touchdowns in the final
00:29
minute and a half of regulation that even included converting a successful onside kick.
00:35
It was all Notre Dame, all night long.
00:38
The Irish win big by double digits in the first ever playoff game in the 12-team era,
00:44
in the first ever on-campus playoff game in the history of college football playoff.
00:49
Yeah, it went as expected.
00:50
Notre Dame's a really good football team.
00:52
Outside of that loss to NIU, they basically pulverized most of their opponents and pretty
00:55
much did the same against Indiana.
00:57
It's close to score, closer than what the game actually indicated, but I was really
01:01
impressed.
01:02
The one running back that I've loved all season long, which I know a lot of Notre Dame fans
01:04
would scream, like, why don't we just get the ball to Jeremiah Love even more?
01:07
That does get banged up in the last game, but come on now, 98-yard touchdown run to
01:12
get that, you slowing right off the bat there at Notre Dame Stadium.
01:14
That was as impressive as you're going to find, and they just held on and did what they
01:17
had to do to win that game.
01:19
I just wish sometimes in the college football, I know you're not going to get brand recognition,
01:22
and I don't think Notre Dame was going to lose to Alabama, and I don't think Miami was
01:25
going to go into Penn State and win, but you might have had a little bit more atmosphere
01:28
before the games and hype as compared to what you actually got there, but I don't know if
01:32
the results would have changed here, regardless of whether or not you think they should have
01:35
gotten in.
01:36
Notre Dame's really good.
01:37
They were home.
01:38
They were supposed to win, and they did.
