Notre Dame Escapes Chaotic Evening With An Exhilarating Overtime Victory Over Seminoles

There were far too many things that seemed to be going Florida State’s way late in the 4th quarter on Sunday night in Doak Campbell Stadium. Beyond the fact that the Seminoles were honoring the late Bobby Bowden, McKenzie Milton had just come off the bench to complete a seemingly impossible comeback, and Notre Dame’s defense was inexplicably allowing big play after big play on the ground. After Ryan Fitzgerald drilled a 43-yard field goal with 0:40 seconds remaining in the game to draw the Seminoles even with Notre Dame at 35-35, a sense of doom seemed to settle over Irish Nation.
