Notre Dame was in another tough dog fight for the second week in a row, and this time the Irish end the night with a win by taking down the Duke Blue Devils, 21-14.
Things got off to a great start for the Irish early. Notre Dame drove the ball 82 yards on 8 plays to finish with a 6 yard Audric Estime rushing touchdown. It was a touchdown that was made possible by a fake punt that had Jeremiyah Love easily picking up the first down to keep the drive alive.
Late in the first quarter, Xavier Watts picked off Riley Leonard and the Irish offense got back to work — but after 3 plays the Irish were looking at a 4th and 14 and Spencer Shrader kicked a field goal to make it 10-0.
