Throwback Thursday: Notre Dame Fighting Irish VS Louisville Cardinals, 2020

For this week’s Throwback Thursday, we’re looking back at the 2020 matchup between Notre Dame and Louisville at Notre Dame Stadium. The Irish held on for a gritty 12-7 victory in a low-scoring battle, improving their record to 4-0 on the season.

Kyren Williams continued his impressive run with over 100 rushing yards for the third straight game, while Ian Book made key plays with his legs when his arm couldn’t find its rhythm. The Irish defense was lights out, holding the Cardinals to just over 200 yards of total offense.

Wide receiver Javon McKinley, coming off a career game against Florida State with five catches for 107 yards, struggled against the Cardinals with dropped passes and missed opportunities.
