After a sluggish start to the game for the Notre Dame offense, the Irish woke up in the second quarter thanks to a trio of turnovers by the defense and three big plays on offense. One of those big plays was a ridiculous 65 yard, tackle-breaking touchdown reception by Javon McKinley.
Touchdown Irish.
Javon McKinley makes SIX GUYS MISS on his way to six more points for the Irish.

McKinley’s highlight-reel play is the first touchdown of his career and gave Notre Dame a 28-0 lead.
