Pat McAfee tries to silence crowd as NSFW chant takes over Marcus Freeman appearance
Pat McAfee tried to tame the crowd, but it only caused the deafening chant to change.
During Notre Dame coach Marcus Freeman’s appearance on his show on Friday, Notre Dame fans chanted “F— Ohio!, F— Ohio!” before McAfee stepped in. He tried to point out that Freeman himself is from Ohio, but that only caused the fans to tweak the chant to include Buckeyes in place of Ohio.
McAfee is in town ahead of the game as ESPN’s College GameDay will broadcast from South Bend on Saturday morning with an impressive guest list.

This game will be a notable one for both teams as the College Football Playoff resume discussions ramp up. However, the loser is not expected to be automatically disqualified from CFP discussions.
The Buckeyes have won 5 straight in the series and the last 4 games, like this one, were top-10 showdowns.
