It was a testament to Brown and Bracy on the back end but also to senior defensive end Myron Tagovailoa-Amosa and ju- nior defensive end Isaiah Foskey for be- ing so disruptive up front. And to many Notre Dame players in between. Like Bracy said: unit strength. The Fighting Irish needed it without Hamil- ton. And they got it. Take it from senior linebacker Bo Bauer, who wanted no part in taking the lion's share of credit for his 79-yard interception return that prevented USC from scoring and led di- rectly to three Irish points early in the second quarter. "There are a lot of great guys on our team," senior linebacker Bo Bauer said of his red-zone interception early in the sec- ond quarter. "I'm just one-eleventh. On that play 10 other guys were doing what they needed to do, and I just happened to be in the right place at the right time." Now that's unit strength. ✦ NOTRE DAME INDIVIDUAL STATISTICS Rushing Att. Gain Lost Net Avg.
