Sixth-ranked Notre Dame wasted no time in ending once-unbeaten Army’s slim College Football Playoff hopes on Saturday, 49–14, at Yankee Stadium.
Irish quarterback Riley Leonard got things going with a 28-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Jordan Faison in the first quarter. Army (9–1), ranked No. 19 in the country, never recovered against the Irish (10–1) in a game the Black Knights needed to have any shot at the postseason.
