Chris monday night, on espn, the seahawks and the lions. 8 15 on espn, streaming live on the watch espn app. Kirk clemson, got to think they run the football. The irish are thinking, stop them, use the last timeout, force the punt, get the ball about midfield, maybe your own 45 with about a minute to go. Still time to do what they need to do. Chris third and six a very safe play. Watson keeps it. But does not get much. The linebacker stopped him and now theyll spend that final timeout with 1 13. Punt coming up. Into the wind, by the way. Kirk brian kelly has been thinking the same thing that you and i are talking about. He decided to let that first down play go. Called the timeout on second and third down. Theyre going to get the ball with a minute to go without any timeouts and the way theyve been throwing the football, theyve got to feel pretty confident that they can execute football. May come down to a twopoint conversion. Chris swinney and scott and elliot electing to call safe plays, keep it on the ground. On a rainy night, into the wind. And then trust their defense to try to protect this lead. But kizers been making plays. Just making too many mistakes. Kirk no doubt. Hes thrown now for 284 yards on the night. Teasdall in his end zone. And fuller is set up at the 45. Hell have a play. Takes it at the 41. Fuller. Down to the 32 yard line and kizer and company set up perfectly. 1 05. No timeouts. But a lot shorter drive than when they were down at virginia. Kirk give this notre dame defense a lot of credit for hanging in there and doing what they needed to do to get the ball back to notre dame and now, if youre clemson and you are Brent Venables, dont you have to be thinking to yourself, that underneath crossing route, its been wide open. Weve been blitzing some linebackers, weve been getting lost a little bit in coverage. Its not just a long throw down field. Its the underneath route they have to be concerned about. Chris best starting field position for the irish. Snapped it at one. Lost the ball just came out of his hand. Kirk okay, remember, no timeouts. Hes got to have some urgency here. They work on this. He doesnt have a ton of experience in this, other than the virginia game. But hes got to crank. This is where you really got to have some intensity. Chris inside of 50 seconds. They loms about six yards there. Kizer. Steps up. Flips it short. Incomplete, out of browns hands. Kirk that is actually the best thing that could have happened to notre dame. If he caught that football, hes tackled inbounds and they dont pick up very many yards up and the clock just keeps going and going. Clemson doing a good job right now. Theyve got eight guys in coverage and theyre trying to keep notre dame inbounds. They want that clock to just keep going. Chris two plays to get 16 yards and keep hope alive. Kirk kizer cannot take a sack. Hes got to throw it away if he feels pressure. Chris they bring some pressure. Fires. Far side sliding play, catch carlisles got a first down in the red zone. They bring that pressure. Its right in his face and he knows if he takes the sack, the game could be over. He stands in there, he gets the time and he throws it. Now theyre going to fire it to kill the clock. Chris 25 seconds to go. Kelly decisive in asking his heres the catch. Underneath. Gets the legs involved. Whatever it takes to hold onto that football. But i couldnt believe the way he just sat in that pocket and waited for carlisle to break free. Didnt panic. Its one thing to make the throw. Its another thing not to panic. Chris does this remind you of a notre dame game on the road against the acc a year ago, a long third down conversion . Kirk we were there. Chris for Florida State. Kizer. Flips it. Near side. Prosise breaks a tackle gets down to the 2 kirk clock stops for the first down. A missed tackle there by clemson. They had him inbounds and short of the first down. They were not able to pull him down. How about the strength there of prosise . Chris clemson wasnt set. So, a flag comes in. Kirk clemson has 12 defenders on the field. Krf chris thats a problem. Kirk thats not good. Chris you are kind of torn, i guess, as a coordinator. Trying to get your short yardage package from the 2 yard line. Referee illegal substitution. Defense. Half the distance to the goal. Still first down. Chris what do you do . Do you dare run the ball . Kirk i dont think you can. You have to trust the quarterback. Hes had the football in his hands. Hes made good decisions. If all else fails, he also is a big body and he is go for that goal line and try to use his legs for a touchdown. Chris any play tackled inbounds is serious trouble, though. Kirk games over if you are tackled inbounds. Chris kizer loops it for the end zone. Touchdown torii hunter jr. With seven seconds to play the irish are a twopoint conversion away from overtime. Kirk you mentioned last years Florida State notre dame game. How about this . How about this right here . Perfectly executed to open it up. Exactly the same situation, the same side of the field, but this time, will fuller, give him credit. He looks into the quarterback, instead of, like, looking at the defensive back. Perfectly executed by notre dame. Ironic, a year later, the exact same corner of an end zone with the game on the line. Chris they need three more yards to force o. T. Kizer. Rolls. Runs into traffic and comes up a yard short boulware, watkins. And the clemson defense rises up. To hold off a furious notre dame rally. Brian kelly. Relying on the feet and the legs of kizer this is all about the defensive line of clemson. Work here. And then, you have the safeties come in and help out. But a great job up front. I mean, kevin dodd, 98, would not look at the extension there against a tight end, wisher. He just throws him back into the into the quarterback. Boulwares involved. You saw blanks get in there. Chris you saukellys disappoint. Watsons relief. The decision by kelly to go for two early in the fourth quarter. They got that first touchdown. It will be questioned now, the way things eventually worked out. Kirk no doubt about that. And you go to the last second here with seven seconds left. You had an unsportsmanlike penalty here on clemson, so, kicking from midfield for this onsides kick. And if they you know, its a slippery field, its wet. If you kick this and you somehow recover it, at least it gives you a chance at either a hail mary or a really long field goal. Chris Cassidy Hubbarth will be along in the studio. Have reaction from this one. Early in this quarter, clemson rolling. Up 21. They thought we can think about heading home early on a rainy night. The irish made them play right down to the end. But just like the game we referenced a year ago in tallahassee, it looks like a notre dame perfect season is going to come to an end with a close call on the road in a tough environment against an acc team. Kirk absolutely. Lets see how this onsides kick goes. Chris well, this is the they practice this all the time, trying to get that perfect hop. And it does not get the hop. And its fielded by the tigers who are going to take a knee with a hardearned twopoint victory in death valley. Theyre 12th straight home win. That is a very relieved head coach. Kirk hes emotional right now. This is a big win for his program. Think about this. In the last three years. This Clemson Program is now 367 with wins over lsu, auburn, georgia, ohio state, oklahoma and notre dame. He has taken this program to a whole different level and so, what you saw there was not just relief but just he is so darn proud of his program and what theyve built here. Chris forget the stats. Clemsons outgained big time. Notre dame mistakes crucial for second half turnovers but they played a ton of heart and resilience on the road. Kizer, who helped lead that comeback, coming up one yard short on that twopoint conversion carry. Kirk thats what you need to take away from this game. Its a huge win for clemson early in the year at home against a good notre dame Football Team. But notre dame, with kizer at quarterback, on the road in these conditions, down big, looking like they didnt have any chance at all, they had four turnovers, theyre outgained by over 100 yards, how in the world is that Football Team going to have a chance to come back and have a shot at a twopoint conversion, getting it into give them credit. They can build on this. Chris the tigers have some tough folks ahead. Georgia tech is up next here on this field. They got hammered by the jackets a year ago, but tech is struggling. Clemson, kirk, with the loss ahead of them in the rankings, four of the top eight teams, a chance to really jump up in the rankings and become a big part of the conversation for that, potential playoff talk. And the irish with a tough schedule, not necessarily out of it with the twopoint loss on the road. Kirk yeah, yeah. Chris you saw how emotional dabo swinney was a moment ago. Hes with heather. Heather thank you so much. Dabo, congratulations. What does this kind of a win do for your program . Well, makes us 40, and it keeps us on track. For what were trying to do and thats have a great season. Hats off to notre dame. You know, they fought back. Thats what great teams do. Well coached. Man, im just so proud of our team. It aint always perfect, but what i told them tonight was, listen, we give you scholarships, we give you, you know, stipends and meals and a place to live. We give you nice uniforms, i cant give you guts. And i cant give you heart. And tonight, hey, it was b. Y. O. G. , bring your own guts. They brought the guts and heart and never quit until the last play. And thank you to the good lord and my dad, who was with me tonight. Just freaking play this play, dont worry about our screwups. Play this play. Win this down. And, you know, just happy, they never quit. But again, great effort by notre dame. And let me just tell you rain, sleet or snow, tiger nation, they show and they were here tonight. Great, great job. Were going to do the whip and nae nae tonight. Heather you want to do it right now . Bring your own guts, guys. Chris well, there will be a dance, just check in tomorrow. Dabo is going to get down. Kirk i thought he might pull the whip out down on the field there. Its going to get nutty in that locker room. Chris he knows it wasnt perfect. They have a lot of things to correct. But it was a resilient defense that had been burned a bunch. Notre dame was moving up and down the field, making big plays. Had come very close. They do force the four turnovers in the second half. They did limit prosise on the ground. They got in the backfield a bunch, kirk. But boy, they were really test ed ed. A yard away from overtime. Kirk remember we were just kind of mar vechling and they got voweler inable in the passing game. Kizer threw for over 300 yards tonight and it that aspect is what Brent Venables is probably going to work the hardest on to get his team ready to continue to trim to improve. Chris give you the at t strong performance. Just enough for clemson. You know what, when notre dame visits clemson, its only happened twice, the last four decades. Finish. Joe montana just got it done, the last time the irish were here and Deshone Kizer came very close to a comeback that would have joined the long list, notre dame just a yard short there. Something they can build on, even though its a loss. Kirk i think youre right. This is going to be a wacky year in college football. All you have to do is look at and especially today. Look at some of the scores. Its going to be one of those years where the committees homework. It wasnt going to be as clean as it was. Notre dame is not out of this thing. If they can learn from this, theyre going to be just fine. And for clemson, as well, i mean, clemsons a Football Team that theyve got a quarterback, theyve got a defense that they can be proud of. But theyve got enough that they can learn from today and continue to try to grow and just keep, as he said, were 40. Not going to hand us the trophy tonight. Were 40. Chris no, no. They now have to play eight more games in eight weeks. They had the long time off before this game. But its going to be a grind and no weeks off for clemson as they head into the acc schedule. Until until state Florida State comes here. Team thats had their number. Another look at the stop by the tiger defense on the twopointer. Kirk look at dodd. He sets the point on the edge. Doesnt let kizer get outside. And then the rest of that defensive line and the linebackers are there to clean it up. But really give kevin dodd a lot of credit for holding the point on the outside. That defensive line, when they had to turn it up tonight, they did for the most part. Chris we will never know what would happen had that conversion been good. This thing would have headed to overtime. Because notre dame would have brought the momentum into it. Well, the party on a rainy night in death valley is just getting startled here. Clemson holds on, 2422 over the fighting irish. Hope you enjoyed tonights game. For kirk herbstreit, heather cox and our entire crew, which worked beautiful little in these tough conditions tonight, im chris fowler. The ford wrapup show is coming up right now. Cassidy .

Derek henry, a career high 148 rushing yards and his tenth straight game with a rushing td. And speaking of a big rushing day, how about ohio States Ezekiel elliott .
