Notre Dame wasn’t going to come up short in another big game.
On the heels of an excruciating, last-second home loss to Ohio State last week, the No. 11 Fighting Irish went on the road Saturday and pulled out a thrilling 21-14 win over No. 17 Duke.
Notre Dame blew a 13-0 lead and allowed Duke to storm back and take a 14-13 lead with 9:17 to play. The Fighting Irish sputtered offensively for most of the night, and things looked bleak when Duke pinned Sam Hartman and the Irish offense at their own 5-yard line with 2:35 to play.
