Penn State's quest for a national championship ended on Thursday night with a loss to Notre Dame in the College Football Playoff semifinals. The Nittany Lions looked to be in control for 29 minutes before the Irish gained their footing and turned it into an instant classic. There were big plays and big mistakes going back and forth with everything on the line.
Penn State's Drew Allar had the misfortune of making the last, most critical error when he threw late over the middle for a Christian Gray interception. A few plays later, Irish kicker Mitch Jeter sent his team into the title game—and the Nittany Lions into the offseason.
