Kanon Woodill kicked a 35-yard field goal with 31 seconds left in the fourth quarter to help the Huskies defeat No. 5 Notre Dame 16-14 on the road Saturday.
The Fighting Irish – who beat Texas A&M to open their season last week – entered the contest versus Northern Illinois as 28.5-point favorites. It’s Northern Illinois’s first-ever victory over a top-10 opponent.
Notre Dame paid Northern Illinois $1.4 million to play in South Bend this season, notes Joe Pompliano of Huddle Up.
