Part 6/7:
Shifting focus to college football, McFarland discusses the upcoming title game where Ohio State is favored to beat Notre Dame. He wittily recalls the infamous Fiesta Bowl in 1986, cautioning against premature conclusions based on team rosters alone. Although he recognizes Ohio State's superiority in talent, especially given Notre Dame's roster challenges, McFarland emphasizes that games can be unpredictable.
For Notre Dame to pull off an upset, McFarland suggests they will need to create turnovers on defense and possibly capitalize on special teams. He hints that if they can stay in contention until the fourth quarter, they may capture the mystique of "Touchdown Jesus" and have a fighting chance.
