What was your big impression from yesterday that nobody made or missed the playoffs in South Bend last night?

Adverbs of manner

That game is gonna have toe likely be replayed.

It's gonna mean even Mawr, maybe for Clemson.

So we can't become prisoners of the moment off.

My biggest take away is the Irish made a huge statement last night.

They responded toe every punch, every jab that the Clemson Tigers through it them.

They really demanded and commanded the entire line of scrimmage the entire game.

I thought he did a great job of distributing the ball to the receivers.

The defense played lights out with or without Trevor.

Well, I'll build on what both of you gentlemen said and take it one step further.

I think that was clear in Clemson and Notre Dame only being separated by a touchdown and double overtime.

But don't discount the possibility of two SEC teams because guys Ford is in control of the East on a collision course, too.

Face Alabama in the SEC championship game.

And if they win, it takes one upset to see Alabama and Florida in the top four.

They won 39 consecutive regular season games, including 28 straight against A C C opponents 25 of those in conference play.

Clemson had won 14 on the road straight before going down in double overtime.

So obviously that sort of game gives us a ton to react to.

I want to go back to Tom Luginbill, Tom, you said earlier in your kickoff, you commented on this.

So when you look at Notre Dame, this one game doesn't put them into the playoffs for you.

I don't think it can in a crazy up and down season like we're having.

You've got to take each and every week and compartmentalize it because you don't know which team you're gonna be playing with each and every week.

Talking to coaches each week, preparing for games.

They might find out on a Friday or a Saturday morning that they're gonna be down.

And so that's why I think you've got to take the win and take it with a grain of salt.

Not not to, you know, in any way, shape or form.

Take away from the performance, but what's in front of you?

You can't be drunk off of this win versus Clemson.

Ah, lot of football remains to be seen, but I'll say this about Notre Dame.

They are 30 and three in their last 33 games, so they know how to win.

But what they did last night was something hadn't done before is they beat a team in two ways.

They beat a team that was athletically superior to them, and they beat them because they were better in the trenches.

 All right, thanks for watching ESPN on YouTube for live streaming sports and premium content.
