In the most monumental game of the season, and pretty much the most monumental game the Irish have played since the National Championship game 2 seasons ago, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish stepped up and delivered a classic win against the Miami Hurricanes. They had to win to stay alive in the CFP race, keep leaving no doubt, and for overall confidence in the program as fans and for the University as a whole.
In a day when the Irish and the whole community pretty much needed many things to go right,
the will for that to happen was palpable. And, everyone ultimately succeeded. The Irish won a classic. Of course, amidst a game of this caliber, especially being up 24-3 and then only winning by 7, there had to be some locking in involved. The emotional rollercoaster was crazy, as we all expected. With that, overreactions of course occurred. Let’s take a look at some of the ones that stand out a bit more.
ND vs. Miami: Overreactions We Saw Online
Don’t know if “overreaction” is the right word for what this is. But it’s puzzling, and we need to talk about it. I know Ted Lasso was the guest picker, and he was on the field for the game, but this guy might be taking “Be a Goldfish’ too literally. The Irish had two running backs taken in the first round of the most recent NFL Draft! Simply outstanding that this is also kind of a veiled shot at Notre Dame Football from a reporter at The Athletic. Put some respect on Love and Price!
I’m picking just one of the hundreds of tweets I could pick. It wasn’t a catch. It was so clearly not a catch. Stop coping, Notre Dame haters.
The final one is more a post-game overreaction so we don’t get burned again. I would be lying if I also haven’t thought a lot about the Irish beating the #1 team in the nation at home in November where the score was 31-24 only to play BC the very next week at home. Gotta take care of business and win out so the dream can still truly be alive.
