Irish Down Miami in Instant Classic
In what many are already calling one of the greatest games of all time, Notre Dame scored on the first play of OT and recovered a Hurricane fumble to win 42-35.
In a snowy day in South Bend, Miami was surging up the polls and playing well. Notre Dame was up to the task early, but Miami stayed in the game, taking the lead in the fourth on a long drive.
Once again, Cierre Wood's late TD tied the game. On the first play of OT, Golson hit a wide open Tyler Eifert for a score. Miami got to the Irish 6 on their possession, where Prince Shembo forced a fumble which the Irish recovered for the win.
Cierre Wood had 130 total yards and 2 scores, firmly holding his place amongst the Heisman favorites.
