ATLANTA, Ga. -- Following his team's 34-23 loss to Ohio State in Monday night's College Football Playoff national championship game, Notre Dame coach Marcus Freeman sat in the middle of his two teary-eyed team captains and took ownership for a multitude of mistakes that were ultimately too much to overcome when it mattered the most.
With quarterback Riley Leonard sitting to his right, and sixth-year senior linebacker Jack Kiser on his left, Freeman said there were uncharacteristic mistakes and breakdowns in communication that put the Irish in a 24-point hole in the third quarter they couldn't overcome.
