Notre Dame Week 11 highlight — the backups are getting it done

Notre Dame’s Steve Angeli is in on the scoring act.

It’s officially backup time for No. 10 Notre Dame as it faces the Florida State Seminoles.

This is a good thing, since the Fighting Irish are now leading 45-3 late in the game.

Notre Dame is looking not just to beat Florida State, but it to make it into a statement win in order to impress the College Football Playoff committee, and the Fighting Irish are well on their way.

The struggling Seminoles are about to drop to 1-9.
