For a lot of Florida State fans, the Seminoles' season couldn't end soon enough as they stare down one of the worst program records in modern history. The 'Noles are headed into a week off, sitting at 1-9, and from the outside looking in, the wheels have fallen off for a program that dominated the ACC just a year ago.

FSU lost again Saturday to No. 10 Notre Dame and was unable to score a touchdown for the first time in 2024. The 52-3 box score hasn't been the only eye-opener this season, but it continued to emphasize the question of what exactly is going on in Tallahassee.

As baffling as the year has gone for a team that was once favored to win the ACC again, the Fighting Irish fan base took the victory as a bounty, even mocking the Florida State War Chant as both teams left the field.

While the matchup isn't considered a rivalry, there have been a few historic bouts between the two teams. Notre Dame tied the series history with the victory, which now sits at 6-6; however, hanging 50 on the Seminoles ignited the Irish fanbase and poured salt on the wounds of a battered Florida State team.
