Notre Dame football coach Marcus Freeman joined College GameDay in the lead up to Monday night's national championship game and was asked about the program’s College Football Playoff snub and what his message was to his team to begin to move forward to 2026.
The Irish elected to not play in a bowl game after being left out of the CFP, and it’s been full speed ahead to begin preparing for the 2026 season. Freeman discussed what the initial message was to his team after narrowly missing the playoff, and how the program planned to move ahead.
