Notre Dame coach Marcus Freeman knew his team had just 10 players on the field for Ohio State's game-winning touchdown on Saturday night.
Ohio State v Notre Dame
“Yeah we were trying to get a fourth d-lineman on the field and I told him just stay off because we can’t afford a penalty — I didn’t have any timeouts,” Freeman said in his postgame news conference. “So we couldn’t afford a penalty there.”Notre Dame used its last timeout of the game after Ohio State converted a 3rd and 19 for 21 yards to get a yard away from the end zone.
“We called a timeout [on second down] and so there’s two plays really to be prepared for in that situation and so they went and threw an incomplete pass [on second down], had three seconds left and we couldn’t get a timeout, we’re out of timeouts. The crowd’s loud, you can’t relay a message, and so I told them we’re probably going to run the same call twice and that’s what we ended up doing.”
Freeman also explained the play calls on Notre Dame’s penultimate offensive possession of the game. Ohio State got the ball back with 1:26 to go for its game-winning drive after forcing a Notre Dame punt.
