Not really surprising was it? Most of the time even BAD Teams can score with 4 shots from a yard out?

If I remember correctly, Notre Dame had 3 1st and goal situations near the South endzone and failed on all three 4th down attempts.

I think he meant “did NOT score!” because they didn’t! I was there, too. It was the first drive of the game. Holding them changed everything. ND didn’t score until much later in the game. They made a two point conversion, but the game was already over by then.
Andy Hamilton dazzled their secondary. They never knew where he was. At one point, the ND All-American defending him (Clarence Ellis) made a complete 360 looking for him.
At the time, it was the worst defeat anyone had put on an Ara Parsegian ND team. And the crowd was large and hostile and out for revenge because everyone KNEW the game the year before in South Bend had been stolen by the officials. I was at that one, too.
