If every Notre Dame play did not see the field with a 50-point lead, Team 127’s high expectations would not have been met on Saturday. Although it took Notre Dame a while to build their lead, the Irish completed an undefeated September campaign for the second time in as many years.
The Irish opened the scoring on a 57-yard touchdown run by C.J. Prosise. The Notre Dame speedster gained a total of 149 yards with 2 touchdowns. He eclipsed the 100-mark in the first Quarter.
Kizer added to the Notre Dame lead with a 7-yard touchdown run that capped a 10-play, 80-yard drive.
