Does Notre Dame still have some gas in the tank?

The Irish are down but still fighting and now trail 31-15 after a big effort from Notre Dame wide receiver Jaden Greathouse. His first catch of the night, Greathouse hauled in a slant pass from QB Riley Leonard and immediately shook off his defender. He broke another tackle during his 25-yard trek to the end zone.

Here’s a look at Notre Dame’s best offensive plays so far:

As you can see, Notre Dame went for the 2 and converted, meaning this is now a 2-score game. The Irish would need a couple of stops and a couple of touchdowns with a couple of 2-point conversions to keep this one up.

But now comes the hard part: Slowing down Will Howard, Quinshon Judkins and the Ohio State offense. Howard and Co. has spread the love around, making it extremely difficult for Notre Dame to get into any sort of rhythm. Not to mention, Notre Dame’s usually stout linebacker corps played its worst game of the season so far.

Things will have to change, and change fast, if Notre Dame is really going to have a chance at a comeback. When play resumes, it will be Ohio State ball with 3:30 left in the 3rd quarter.
