THIRD QUARTER: NOTRE DAME, 30-9 Top Moment: After Notre Dame's defense opened the half forcing a three-and-out, Jones burst through the left side on first down and, with excellent downfield blocking, raced untouched down the left sideline for an 84-yard score and a 27-6 cushion. Feature Performer: Senior defen- sive end Ade Ogundeji, who ended an Iowa State drive with a sack that resulted in a field goal, was one of many figures who led the stout de- fense, which forced three-and-outs on Iowa State's first two series in the second half. Stats: Notre Dame outgained the Cyclones 190-63 during the third quarter. Notes: Trailing 27-6, Iowa State drove to a first down at Notre Dame's 19-yard line, but the Irish defense again stiffened and forced a 42-yard field goal by Assalley with 4:58 left … Notre Dame answered with a 73-yard drive, highlighted by 21- and 20-yard catches by Claypool and fifth-year senior wideout Chris Finke, respectively, for a 19-yard field goal by Doerer with 15 seconds left. FOURTH QUARTER: NOTRE DAME, 33-9 Top Moment: Doerer rounded out the scoring and the lone tally in the quarter with his fourth field goal in as many attempts, this one from 39 yards with 3:53 remaining. Feature Performer: Owusu-Kora- moah recorded his fourth tackle for loss with a sack of Purdy on fourth- and-one with about nine minutes remaining. Stats: Notre Dame outgained Iowa State in total yardage 455-272, with the Cyclones finishing 187 yards un- der their average. Notes: In quarterback coach Tommy Rees' first game calling plays, the Fighting Irish offense saw Book finish 20-of-28 passing for 247 yards while the ground attack added 208 yards, and there were no turnovers. ✦ NOTRE DAME 33, IOWA STATE 9 Dec. 28, 2019 ✦ Attendance: 46,948 Camping World Stadium ✦ Orlando, Fla.
