Shaking off some early doldrums, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish picked up their fourth win in a row and improved their season record to 9-2 with a 40-7 thrashing of the Boston College Eagles. The victory came in the home finale and increased the home winning streak of Brian Kelly’s squad to 18 games heading into 2020.
The Irish entered the game as three-touchdown favorites, yet struggled for much of the first half to take control of the game. However, once they returned to the field following intermission, Notre Dame played like the better team, scoring all 23 points in the final two quarters, while narrowly missing a touchdown in the closing minutes.
