Michigan Beats Notre Dame 35-31 In Wild Finish
By Ty Duffy
965 yards. Eight turnovers. Cataclysmic defending. Three touchdowns in the final 72 seconds. It was simultaneously one of the best and worst games I have ever seen. Denard Robinson’s passing line was terrible. His chutzpah was tremendous. Despite the overhyped lights and obnoxious jerseys, the game, ultimately, was the spectacle.
Notre Dame averaged 8.1 yards per pass, 6.0 yards per carry, converted 8/14 third downs and still lost. That’s now ten turnovers in two games the Irish otherwise dominated. Had the Golden Domers been even moderately wasteful thus far they’d be 2-0. This offense’s primary focus heading into the season should have been cutting down turnovers.
