Game Recap

Notre Dame gets late pick and field goal to make title game with 27-24 win over Penn State. Penn State quarterback Drew Allar said he was trying to throw the ball into the ground. Notre Dame defensive back Christian Gray dove for it anyway and — luck of the Irish — the ball ended up right in his hands.
