Notre Dame Beats Louisville in Crucial Match

Notre Dame secured a crucial 31-24 victory over Louisville, significantly impacting both teams' seasons. Louisville's self-inflicted mistakes, including three turnovers leading to 17 Notre Dame points, cost them the game despite a promising start. This win keeps Notre Dame's playoff hopes alive and moves them up to No. 13 in the US LBM Coaches Poll. The game was essential for Notre Dame, avoiding a potential second home loss and maintaining momentum with two top 25 wins early in the season. Louisville, now no longer undefeated, must regroup quickly for their next matchup against SMU.
