Yogi Berra said it best… “It ain’t over, till it’s over.” And this one went the distance to become an instant classic.
After getting stopped on fourth down, things looked bleak for Ohio State. But shades of the Penn State version of J.T. Tuimoloau showed up with a sack and a near interception, forcing Notre Dame to punt giving the Buckeyes one last shot.

Then, with just three seconds left, Chip Trayanum punched it in the end zone and a collective roar exploded from Buckeye Nation.
Let’s take a look at some of the best reactions from social media to this epic win over the Fighting Irish.
We love fiery Ryan Day!

Time to make this an annual affair?
College football deserves Ohio State-Notre Dame every year. Get it together Notre Dame and join the Big Ten.
