A critical penalty call during the College Football Playoff semifinal between Penn State and Notre Dame left Fighting Irish fans furious, even leading to beer cans being tossed on the playing surface at the Orange Bowl.
It appeared as if Notre Dame had picked off Penn State quarterback Drew Allar with 8:48 left in the fourth quarter by Jack Kiser. However, a split second beforehand, tight end Tyler Warren was interfered with by Adon Shuler.
