Notre Dame is hoping to end a 36-year national championship drought when it meets Ohio State in the College Football Playoff title game on Monday, and the team's former head coach is rooting for the Fighting Irish to pull it off.
LSU head coach Brian Kelly, who coached Notre Dame from 2010 to 2021, told Brandon Marcello of CBS Sports that he's hoping the Fighting Irish will be the ones hoisting the championship trophy when it's all said and done.
"I'm happy for all those guys, I pull for them," Kelly said.
