OFD Podcast: Notre Dame almost gave Florida State a Joe Tessitore moment

Joshua, Jude, and Brendan are back again - and this time we have some actual football to talk about. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish beat the Florida State Seminoles 41-38 in overtime, so let’s talk about it. In this episode:

• Hello!
• Reviews.
• The fight for Michael Mayer’s name.
• The defense had plenty of problems on Sunday night, but the biggest problem was their own fault - they were horrible tacklers.
• Kyle Hamilton’s greatness.
• Florida State’s running backs ran hard, and deserve the credit.
• The McKenzie Milton story didn’t have a happy ending.
• Continuing to lean on the philosophy of villainy.
• Josh was excited to call Jack Coan Jacky Heisman, while Jude wanted to spend time on some underthrown balls.
• The distribution of wealth.
• The offensive line wasn’t very good. They weren’t bad because pass protection was fine, but the run blocking was suspect.
• APB on Avery Davis.
• I don’t believe we ever mentioned Jonathan Doerer’s name and for that - we are very sorry.
• A win is a win.
• National perception.
• Breaking down a possible AP ballot.

And plenty more weaved in and out of the show.
