Kick off in about 20 minutes. Finally what we've all been waiting for.

Excited to get going tonight. We'll see how ND deals with the crowd.

See you back when the game starts.

Go Irish!

ICYMI Jordan Travis is the starter at QB for FSU as we've been saying he would be all week

ND will receive and the kick goes into the end zone. Touchback

1 and 10 at the 25

Empty to start? Love it. Quick to Mayer who gets a ton after the catch for 25

False start on Zeke on the next play when they try to go temp

1 and 15 at the ND 45

Coan sacked. Cain Madden with a whiff. Yikes. Had Kyren had to pick up the DT

Out to the wide size on 2 and 17. ND gets 15 to Lenzy

3 and 2

Quick to Mayer, only about a yard. ND is going to go. 4 and 1 and they throw.

Mayer is wide open. WIDE OPEN

Touchdown Irish

Pretty nice start for the Irish

7-0 ND

Good kick coverage for ND. Stopped short of the 20

1 and 10

ND starts out with a 3 down look.

TFL on the dump down to the back. Cam Hart came off the block quick to make the play

2 and 15

Shovel pass taken away by ND and Travis tucked and threw it down the field. Problem was that the LT went down the field. 15 yard gain taken back

2 and 20

4 down for ND. Tried a screen and it was taken away. Pryor was in at Rover and had the pressure

3 and 20

Another screen call and it don't get much uglier for FSU to star this game

3 and out for the FSU offense

Punt fair caught and ND has good field position just outside of FSU territory

1 and 10 a the ND 46

Stretch play and Williams breaks a tackle for about 6. Nice block down the field by Austin

2 and 4

Flea flicker and ball was underthrown by Coan. Almost picked. Austin was who he was targeting

Coan short on that throw to Mayer. Not sure what happened.

Critical stop for FSU.

Bramblett with a pretty bad punt. Chance to pin them deep and he is way short. Fair caught around the 20

2 and 11

About four on 2nd down. ND ran an inside stunt there, but didn't hit it

Justin Ademilola and JD Bertrand combine for the sack. Twist up front with JD and Jayson A.

Love that design

Another 3 and out

1 and 10

Tyree gets one inside

2 and 9

Little swing to Tyree and he outruns the LB to the corner. First down for ND

A lot of spread out formations to start this one for Rees

Tried a jet sweep with Tyree and penetration blew it up. TFL

2 and 14

About 7 on the quick out to Mayer

Gets them into a manageable 3 and 7

Mayer drops one. Coan put it on him. Would have been a first. Drops were a bit of a thing with Mayer last year.

ND will punt

Bramblett with another meh punt. Fair catch at the 11.

Bauer pressure on the blitz on 1st down. Travis had to get it out. Ball was short to the Wr

2 and 10

Corbin breaks one. Missed tackle and it's 89-yards to the crib.

Nothing fancy there. Just not good angles. Not good tackling.

7-7

Outside zone gets nothing on 1st down. Left side couldn't get push

Good run by Kyren on the country. Late hit on FSU gives ND the 1st and 15 free yards

1 and 10

Blake Fisher gets called for a hold. 1 and 20

Draw to Tyree gets 12 for ND

2 and 8

Great cut by Tyree gets 6. Sets up 3 and short

ND going 11 personnel feels...weird. They run zone read, but they aren't going to respect Coan. Kyren gets only 1

4 and 1

PA to Kyren. He bobbled it and they will measure, looks short on the telecast.

Measured and it's just short. FSU gets the ball back

Short gain on the inside run sets up 3 and 8

Pressure with four, but Travis bought some time and found Helton at the sticks. 1st down

1 and 10

Sack by Foskey. MTA got there first, but Travis avoided

End of the 1Q

7-7

2 and long when they come back

2 and long

Travis pressured when they dropped 8 and rushed three. Mills got pressure. Called it a fumble and scoop and score by Foskey, but it will come back and be a sack by Mills

3 and long

Well short of the sticks and FSU will punt. Just tried to get something there. Should be a long field for ND after this punt

Fair caught by Kyren at about the 7

Kyren with a tough run for about 4. Heavy personnel there for ND

2 and 6

13 personnel and not much there for Kyren. Gets about 1

3 and 5

Snap was high and Coan was not ready. ND fortunate to get that back, but Bramblett needs to have a big punt here

It was a bad punt by Bramblett and FSU has the ball in ND territory

1 and 10

Nice design with the influence block sets up a big play for FSU.

2 and 8 after White almost comes up with a sack

1 and 10

Sack. Johnson just came inside and Coan didn't feel the rush

Draw gets ND into 3 and about 9

Flag on the play. Offside on the defense. Gives ND a 3 and medium

Empty. QB counter was the call. FSU had a blitz call and it went nowhere. That call is going to be critiqued and should be.

Doerer in for the field goal and he hits from 48. ND needed that drive just to calm things down.

14-10 FSU

False start from FSU to start the drive

1 and 15

Another false start. Dillan Gibbons

ND football

2 and 10

Coan scrambles and gets about 7

3 and 3

Joe Wilkins goes up and grabs the 50/50 ball for six!

Wilkins with a big time play. Coan gave his guy a shot

ND up 17-14

Bad snap and FSU is lucky to recover. Loss of 5. Bertrand and MTA just missed grabbing it.

Pryor great job on the screen. GREAT JOB. Clinic beat the block by the WR to make the tackle. TFL

3 and 17 coming up. ND calls a timeout

FSU calls a draw. Gets 12, but FSU will have to punt.

1:34 left in the half

Check down to Tyree and gets a couple

Tyree on the check down again. ND calls a timeout. 3 and 4 with under a minute to go

ND will punt with 50 seconds left in the half

Shovel to Corbin gets 10

Sack by Foskey on the next play and that will end the half

17-14 ND

Looked a lot like a first game

Good return by FSU, but ball was out. ND recovered.

I think it will be reversed and FSU will keep it, but maybe I'm wrong. Video is not really conclusive, but I think he's down.

They say he is down. FSU ball at the 37

1 and 10

Great job by Houston Griffith coming up on run support

2 and 7

Travis keep on the read. Only gets one. Great job by Kiser and Drew White there

3 and 6

Griffith burned in one on one coverage. Played with fire having a safety one on one.

That's six, but not seven. Fumbled extra point

FSU back up 20-17

Carmody out at LT for the ND offense. Looks like Fisher is out

Fade to Austin and he bobbles it, but comes down with it in bounds

Quick dump to Kyren. Gets 6

2 and 4

Kyren bounces it and gets 3

3 and short

And wow wow wow Rees goes for the big play and Coan hits Austin with a perfect ball. Touchdown Irish!

24-20 ND

Pitch to Corbin gets a couple

ND defense swarmed that

2 and 8

Hamitlon with another pick. Wow, what a play. Bad throw by Travis. Horrible throw.

Unsportsmanlike conduct after the play for Hamilton. Who cares. What a pick

1 and 10

Kyren gets stuffed. Think he needed to cut that up. He's bounced a few he should have ran inside in this oen

Sack for FSU on the next play. Carmody super late off the ball. All on him

Screen to Kyren and a huge play on 3 and 17. Great call vs the blitz. Great job by everyone getting downfield with the blocking

1 and 10

False start on the offense

1 and 15

Kevin Austin after the catch gets ND to 1st and goal. Made a guy miss

1 and goal

Quick out to Kyren gets a yard

2 and goal

Kyren inside gets to the 5

Kyren out in the flat, makes two guys miss and scores. Playmakers making plays.

ND now up double digits. Just like that

31-20 ND

FSU 1 and 10 at the 25

Forced out of the pocket, Travis has to throw it away. NaNa with some pressure there

2 and 10

Wildcat look gets about 5.

3 and 5 coming up

Wildcat again

Gets about 3

4th down and FSU is going to keep the offense out on the field

They went for it, Travis rolled out and what a mistake. Clarence Lewis with the pick. Hamilton was all over the play. Hart was on his guy. Ball tipped and ND football in good field position

Boot and Coan hits Lenzy for a big play. Crosser and it ends with a facemask. ND now in 1st and goal after that

1 and goal

Heavy personnel and Tyree gets it down to the one

2 and goal

Tyree in for the touchdown

Now the lead is up to 18

ND 38-20

Three man rush, Ademilola pressure. Side arm throw is incomplete by Travis

2 and 10

Travis escaped and found Helton for a good gain. Big hit by Hart, but couldn't dislodge it

Howard Cross with a big hit on the Travis scramble. All drop 8 so far on this drive

FSU getting a drive going here and looks like Freeman going maybe a bit too conservative here.

Hinish stuff on 1st down, good run inside gets FSU into 3 and 2

Travis too high to the open man gets it to 4 and 2

Wildcat converts. Hinish had Corbin in the backfield, but couldn't bring him down

FSU in the red zone with another 3 and short situation

FSU converted. Wonder if ND switches to 4 down now. They do, but FSU still finding some success.

Travis kept on 1 and goal. Stuffed at the 1

FSU needs six here.

2 and goal after they come back to the 4th.

ND 38-FSU 20

Wildcat and Corbin slips. Loses one

3 and goal

15th play of the drive

FSU with a snap infraction. Now FSU is probably forced to throw it

ND calls a timeout. BK not happy with the personnel there?

Travis pulls a Houdini when he should have been sacked. Gotta finish there. DJ Brown with another significant miss.

Touchdown and FSU hits the two point. FSU now down 10

38-28

Fair catch by Tyree

1 and 10 at the 25

Kyren inside gets a couple

2 and 8

Coan saw nothing and ended up scrambling for 4. Nice job there

Kind of a big play here with less than 13 to go.

Coan to Mayer. Move the sticks

1 and 10

Williams gets about three. FSU blitzed the corner, but Kyren did well to cut that up

2 and 7

TFL for FSU. They are selling out for the run.

3 and 10

Coan doesn't see it. Eats it. Gets back to the LOS

ND will punt

FSU roughed the punter. Going to be ND football and a 1st down.

And they are calling it a 5-yard running into the kicker. Ok then

Hinish hits the back in the backfield. But not finish. Not enough hats on the ball.

ND going three down to start this drive again

White with a stuff

2 and 9

Travis with a big scramble.

Freeman with some questionable decisions in this half. 3 down is not working for ND.

Cramp from Cam Hart give ND a chance to regroup?

Back to 4 down. Houston came on the blitz and lit up Travis. Helmet popped off

Milton in the game

New Qb in the game and ND plays soft coverage with no pressure? A big play down the field gets FSU rolling

Sack on the next play after pressure from Foskey

2 and 13

Inside run gets a good gain.

You're asking Drew White to go head to head with guards unprotected in this defense

Kiser had a chance at TFL. Missed it, but FSU only gets a yard

3 and 11

Milton makes a big time throw with pressure in his face. FSU now in 1 and goal.

ND had too many players on the field. Going to a penalty on them. Getting killed on tempo

FSU in on the next play

Down by only three. This game by Marcus Freeman...it has not been a stellar debut

38-35 ND

Offside on FSU on the first play. Free play for ND, but Coan had nothing on the boot so he threw it away

1 and 5

Only one inside to Kyren. The ND line just not getting enough movement up front

Ball is off to Mayer on 2 and 4

Sets up big 3rd down

That's a play where you miss Ian Book. As good as Coan has played. He can't escape the rush and is sacked

1 and 10 Milton still in the game

What the heck is going on? Why are they still in 3 down?

2 and 6 after the first down run

3 and short coming up after the next run

Sell out here, Freeman. That's the move IMO

Shovel pass. Good call by FSU gets the 1st

1 and 10

Milton scrambles for 5

2 and 5

ND is simply not getting off blocks. FSU is not moving them up front. They just aren't getting off blocks to make plays

Justin Ademilola loses the edge. RB bounces it out and FSU is now at the ND 30

Bauer missed the sack. About the seventh missed sack today. Milton scrambles for 4

ND finally gets a stop on the stretch.

3 and 7

Bad snap and Milton has to throw it away. Lucky to pick that up and get it out

FSU on the field goal with 45 seconds to go

It's good

40 seconds left and tie game

Coan hits Mayer. for a big play on the second play of the drive. Puts ND in a position to get a shot at field goal with about 20 more yards.

FSU calls a timeout. 11 seconds left

2 and 10. ND has one timeout ready and can attack the middle of the field

Mayer with a huge drop. ND was in field goal position. Just a critical drop. Two of them for him in this game. ND will get one more shot here with 5 seconds left

Call a timeout and they will throw a Hail Mary

Way short on that. Going to OT.

FSU gets the ball first and four inside. Second play gets one or two

3rd and medium

Freeman brings the house and JD Bertrand comes in unblocked for the sack. Now it's a long field goal attempt for FSU

50-yard attempt coming up. But then they reviewed it can and called it incomplete. What?

He missed the FG, which feels like karma.

2 and 7 after Kyren hits inside for three

Boot and hits Mayer for the short throw. Couldn't make the safety miss

3 and 8 coming up

Run call to Kyren loses a yard. Welp

Doerer in for the win. 41 yards and it's...a timeout from FSU.

It's good.

Doerer bails out the defense and the O-line. Woo those two groups have some work to do. Not having Blake Fisher hurts.

Coan balled out.

Instant reaction is going to be interesting
