No. 2 Notre Dame falls short against No. 8 BYU in red zone

No. 2 Notre Dame lost to No. 8 BYU 28-24 on Saturday night in Provo, Utah. Missed opportunities in the red zone were pivotal, as the Irish failed to score on their last drive of the game and a critical first-half drive. Notre Dame's CJ Carr mishandled a spike attempt during the latter, resulting in a fumble that halted their momentum. After capitalizing on BYU's mistakes, including a fake punt gone wrong, the Irish narrowed the deficit but could not capitalize in the final moments, ending the game with Carr's incomplete pass to Greathouse in the end zone. This marks BYU's first win over a Top 10 team since 2018.
