Notre Dame had no issue moving the ball against Texas last week. Today, they got a bit tricky to open scoring against Virginia in Charlottesville. Backup quarterback and holder DeShone Kizer flipped the ball on a fake field goal to junior tight end Durham Smythe for a touchdown.

Notre Dame went for two after the score, but was denied, and lead the Cavaliers 6-0 midway through the first quarter.
