M
inutes after the 31‑27 loss at
No. 2 Florida State Oct. 18,
Notre Dame head coach
Brian Kelly avoided harp‑
ing too much on "The Call."
With 13 seconds left in the contest
and fourth‑and‑goal from the 2‑yard
line, Irish senior quarterback Everett
Golson found sophomore receiver Co‑
rey Robinson wide open in the flat for
a touchdown. The play was then nulli‑
fied when back judge Pat Ryan flagged
Notre Dame junior slot receiver C.J.
Prosise for offensive interference —
although Kelly said he was originally
told the penalty was on sophomore
wideout Will Fuller.
Then on fourth‑and‑goal from the
18, Golson's desperation pass into the
end zone was intercepted by Semi‑
noles linebacker Jacob Pugh, his sec‑
ond of the game.
Official Review
Brian Kelly miffed with wiped-out
touchdown at Florida State
After initially refusing to criticize the referees, Kelly made it clear how unhappy he was with the pass
interference call that nullified a potential game-winning TD for the Irish against the No. 2 Seminoles.
