No one gave Notre Dame a chance to win in Athens last night, but there they were, ball in their hands with less than two minutes to go down just six points. Unfortunately, their upset bid fell short on a 4th down desperation heave by Ian Book after yet another offensive line breakdown. While their is plenty for the lads to be holding their head high about today, it was the latest in a string of near-misses for the Irish.
We will have a lot on this one today because there is a ton to unpack, but for now, here the upsets from a heart-breaker in Athens.
