- The Irish drilled Georgia RB Trevor Etienne in the backfield and the ball popped out! It’s recovered by Notre Dame.
- What a big early defensive play when it looked like the Bulldogs were going to at least put a field goal on the board if not more.
- Two passes from Gunner Stockton to Dillon Bell and the Bulldogs are past midfield and nearing scoring range.
- The opening possession for the Irish doesn’t go much better, as they lost 9 yards and went three-and-out.
- The Irish have the ball back after two penalties on Bryce Young. He ran into the Georgia punter on consecutive punts, but Notre Dame had buried them behind the sticks.
- ND ball at its own 33.
- It was short-lived. Notre Dame’s defense had Georgia moving backward from there and the Bulldogs are forced to punt.
- The Irish were going to get out of the first possession pretty easy, but a defensive pass interference call has given the Bulldogs a first down.
- We are underway with the Sugar Bowl!
- Georgia will start with the ball.
