30 NOV. 7, 2016 BLUE & GOLD ILLUSTRATED Miami was able to make some plays in the pass game — especially in the third quarter — but the Irish secondary more than held its own. Senior cornerback Cole Luke had a crucial first-quarter interception, and freshman corner Julian Love handled himself well in coverage. The best of the bunch might have been freshman cornerback Donte Vaughn, who set a career high with a team-leading three passes broken up. Miami tested Vaughn deep early and often, but the freshman was ready for the challenge. "He plays the ball very well. He's got a good sense of when to turn," Kelly said of Vaughn's coverage in- stincts. "Some guys just have a blind spot to that. "He's long, and he can rake through the basket. He does a really good job with that." Kelly noted that Vaughn still has plenty to work on, but he was quick to point out that the Memphis na- tive has a bright future ahead of him. "He's going to be a really, really good player," Kelly said. "I love coaching him." ✦ NOTRE DAME INDIVIDUAL STATISTICS Rushing No. Gain Lost Net Avg.
