It's no surprise that Lou Holtz is picking Notre Dame to beat Ohio State for the national championship, but he took another little shot at Ryan Day in the process.

Lou Holtz, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish's last coach to win a national title, believes Notre Dame will only lose the national championship to Ohio State if it wants to.

After Ohio State beat Notre Dame last year, Ryan Day had a long message for Holtz in his postgame interview. He said that he wanted to know where Holtz was, and that he couldn't believe what was said about his team. Day also insisted that his team was tough.

Ohio State RB Chip Trayanum plowed through the middle of Notre Dame's defensive line for a 1-yard touchdown on third-and-goal with one second left on the clock to seal the win. During a postgame interview with the NBC broadcast, Day, unprompted, went off on Holtz in a clip that went instantly viral.

Ohio State's last win over Michigan was in 2019 when Sawyer was in high school. However, this season's loss to the rival may have hurt the most for the senior defender, as it was on the Buckeyes' senior day. Plus, the game ended in a brawl between both teams after a Michigan flag was planted in the middle of Ohio State's field.
