Episode Synopsis

Notre Dame football coach Marcus Freeman has been allowing late, meaningless touchdowns in games theyve already won by a large margin, a trend that has left fans puzzled. This past Saturday night, against Stanford, the Irish gave up a three-yard scoring pass with just four minutes left, despite leading forty-nine to twenty. This marks the third straight game where an opponent has scored late in a blowout victory for Notre Dame. Freeman stands by his decision to empty the bench in these situations, prioritizing player development over maintaining a perfect defensive record in a blowout.The Daily News Now! - Every city.
