After getting through the College Football Playoff quarterfinals, the Penn State Nittany Lions and Notre Dame Fighting Irish will clash in the Orange Bowl game to determine which team will move onto the national championship.

PennLive’s Johnny McGonigal and Bob Flounders take a deep dive into the most anticipated game of Penn State’s season to date. It’s PSU and Notre Dame going at it in the Orange Bowl on Thursday night. The winner moves on to the championship game.

In an era that is now long gone, a trip to the Orange Bowl meant a break from the rough weather up north and the capper to a successful season that, if things had gone great, ended with a championship trophy in the case.
