Notre Dame’s suffocating defense recorded eight sacks and limited Florida State to just 208 yards of offense to lead the Fighting Irish to a 52-3 thrashing of the Seminoles. Tackle Rylie Mills led the way with three sacks while safety Luke Talich ended the night with a 79-yard interception return. The Irish offense cruised to a touchdown on its opening drive but sputtered at times before catching fire. Jadarian Price led the ground attack with 97 yards, including a 65-yard scoring burst. Notre Dame moves to 8-1 on the season while the Noles drop to 1-9.
Florida State answered the Irish opening march with a successful rushing attack.
