The famed frieze of Yankee Stadium was adorned with Notre Dame and Shamrock Series flags that fluttered calmly throughout the game, as if they, like Irish head coach Brian Kelly, were confident Notre Dame would walk away with a win.

ORLANDO, Fla. — Leading up to No. 14 Notre Dame’s matchup with No. 17 LSU in the Citrus Bowl, there were comparisons to the 2014 Music City Bowl. Notre Dame (10-3) was playing the same team — LSU (9-4, 6-2 SEC) — on the heels of a disappointing end to a promising season. And just
