A 10-2 run that bridged halftime turned a 6-4 game into a blowout in South Bend on Tuesday night as #10 Notre Dame came away with the 21-9 victory against Marquette. The Golden Eagles drop to 0-2 on the season after opening up with two teams receiving votes in the national polls.
The long and short of it is you saw the reason why Notre Dame was picked to finish third in the ACC this season while Louisville, MU’s previous opponent, was picked to finish seventh. While Marquette was able to run with the Cardinals in their season opener last week, that was not the case against the Irish.
