If you come to visit the capital of Catalonia, РІР‚вЂ№РІР‚вЂ№we will help you to find the best apartment in Barcelona. Oklahoma State is in its third Fiesta Bowl, with wins over Stanford in 2012 - its last New YearРІР‚в„ўs Six bowl win - and BYU in 1974. This will be Notre DameРІР‚в„ўs sixth trip to the desert, where the Irish have lost three straight Fiesta Bowls since beating West Virginia in 1989. Like the Irish, the Cowboys moved quickly and promoted Gundy to head coach.Р”В«oth teams are familiar with playing in the Fiesta Bowl. Gundy was Oklahoma StateРІР‚в„ўs offensive coordinator in 2004 when Les Miles left for LSU. With them hiring within, their system will stay pretty tight, my guess, leading into the bowl game.РІР‚СњР”Р‡reemanРІР‚в„ўs elevation to head coach has a similar feel to how Gundy got the job in Stillwater. РІР‚СљI know coach Kelly left and went to LSU and I know coach Freeman is there now, but as we all know, players play in the games. Really good players go to Notre Dame,РІР‚Сњ Gundy said. Jack Coan has thrown for 2,641 yards and 20 touchdowns, with Kyren Williams adding 1,002 yards and 19 TDs on the ground. The Irish have a well-balanced offense and won their final six games by an average of 27.3 points per game, capped by a 45-14 victory over Stanford in the finale. РІР‚СљThey present a lot of challenges, they do a lot things, theyРІР‚в„ўre very multiple with coverages.РІР‚Сњ РІР‚СљWeРІР‚в„ўve heard about Oklahoma State all year and a lot of the conversation has been about how strong their defense has played,РІР‚Сњ said Rees, who played quarterback at Notre Dame from 2010-13. TheyРІР‚в„ўre third in total defense, fifth against the run and eighth in scoring defense. The Cowboys have one of the nationРІР‚в„ўs stingiest defenses, finishing first nationally with 55 sacks and 8.5 tackles for loss per game. The first meeting between Notre Dame and Oklahoma State sets up what could be another memorable game at the Fiesta Bowl. РІР‚СљThereРІР‚в„ўs nothing that happened yesterday that can take away from what these guys achieved this year.РІР‚Сњ РІР‚СљIf we got two more inches, Baylor would be in the same situation we are now. They finished ninth in the final CFP rankings. The 21-16 loss left the Cowboys short of the Big 12 championship and the playoff. BaylorРІР‚в„ўs Jairon McVea tracked him down and JacksonРІР‚в„ўs reach to the pylon missed by inches.

Oklahoma State failed on three tries and, with the clock winding down, Dezmon Jackson ran around the edge toward the end zone. 6 Baylor in the Big 12 championship game and put together a late drive, reaching the BearsРІР‚в„ў 2-yard line. They rallied from a 21-3 halftime deficit against No. The Cowboys (11-2) were agonizingly close to reaching the CFP for the first time. РІР‚СљWe havenРІР‚в„ўt felt this in the program before, this excitement and support for one another.РІР‚Сњ

РІР‚СљI know the word rally is used a lot around Notre Dame, but you really see the program rally around one another in the last five days,РІР‚Сњ said Notre Dame offensive coordinator Tommy Rees. No CFP, but the Irish have a chance to win their first major bowl game since the 1993 Cotton Bowl under Lou Holtz - under a new coach, no less. 2 Michigan left them on the outside looking in, fifth in SundayРІР‚в„ўs final CFP rankings. Notre Dame promoted defensive coordinator Marcus Freeman to head coach Friday and had hoped for a bit of chaos during the conference championship games Saturday.
