IrishIllustrated.com Insider

Irish Illustrated's Tim Prister, Tim O'Malley, and Drew Mentock recapped Notre Dame's historic 31-24 victory over the No. 1 Miami Hurricanes.

The trio discusses Notre Dame's dominant start, driven by CJ Carr, Jordan Faison, and Micah Gilbert. Carr finished the day with 319 passing yards and 3 passing touchdowns, his first 300+ yard performance since last season against North Carolina State. Gilbert led Notre Dame with 98 receiving yards and had two of Carr's three touchdowns.

Although the Irish jumped out to a quick lead and looked like they might blow out the Hurricanes, who sorely missed Malachi Toney, injuries to Leonard Moore and Jayden Sanders opened the door for the Hurricanes. Elija Lofton and Cooper Barkate found openings as Darian Mensah got hot and closed the gap to 24-17 and 31-24.

However, it was Notre Dame's defense that stepped up. Luke Talich made a key interception that put the Irish in scoring position, while Boubacar Traore proved to be the game-changer the Irish lacked against BYU. After two seasons of defensive doubt, Notre Dame answered the bell and knocked off the No. 1 Hurricanes. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
