GREEN BAY, WI —This one wasn't nearly the laugher many predicted for Notre Dame football, but the fifth-ranked Irish eventually found their stride in a 41-13 win over unranked Wisconsin Sunday, Sept. 6.
Notre Dame (1-0) moved to 13-0 in Shamrock Series games, dating to their origin in 2009 against Washington State in San Antonio.
Successful homecoming: An emotional Green Bay homecoming ahead for Notre Dame's James Flanigan
Here is how we grade the Irish's performance against the Badgers.
As it turns out, losing a pair of first-round running backs to the NFL does impact a running game in the following season. At least it did in the first half, when Notre Dame's top trio of backs managed just 35 yards on 14 carries. Sullivan Asher replaced Styles Prescod at right guard to open the second half and made an impact as Aneyas Williams (two rushing touchdowns) got rolling after the break.
