SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Kanon Woodill hit a 35-yard field goal with 31 seconds to play and Cade Haberman blocked a 62-yard try as time expired and Northern Illinois stunned No. 5 Notre Dame 16-14 on Saturday.

Haberman blocked the 62-yard attempt by Notre Dame's Mitch Jeter, allowing the jubilant Huskies to claim their first non-conference victory against a ranked opponent since a 19-16 upset of No. 21 Alabama in 2003.

In a massive upset, Notre Dame fell as a 28.5-point favorite over Northern Illinois, according to ESPN BET.
