Notre Dame Football: Win over Miami signifies a much-needed momentum change

Notre Dame’s bye week came at the perfect time. After not losing in South Bend at all in 2015, the Irish have lost three straight games in the shadow of Touchdown Jesus. The Irish took the field against the Hurricanes hoping to change the season’s momentum and make a push toward a bowl game.

The Irish jumped out to a 17-0 lead in the first quarter and took a 20-7 lead into halftime.

Kizer hit Kevin Stepherson for a 25-yard game. That play set up a 41-yard scoring run from Josh Adams to tie the game at 27.
