UNDER THE DOME
46
Consecutive Associated Press polls in which the Notre Dame football team had received at least
one vote, dating back to the start of the 2012 season. That streak ended after the Irish were
defeated by Louisville (31-28) Nov. 22. In addition to not placing in the top 25, 7-4 Notre Dame was not
even among the 10 other teams that had received at least one vote.
738
Tackles recorded by Notre Dame heading into the
USC regular-season finale, with 668 of them — or
90.5 percent — credited to players with remaining
eligibility. Among the top 10 tacklers, fifth-year senior cornerback CODY
RIGGS, tied for 10th, is the only one out of eligibility in 2015.
