28-Point Underdog Northern Illinois Upsets No. 5 Notre Dame 16-14 in Historic Win
Sep 7, 2024, 10:52 PM
Northern Illinois achieved a historic upset by defeating No. 5 Notre Dame 16-14 in South Bend. The Huskies, led by head coach Thomas Hammock, secured their first-ever win against a Top-10 opponent. Northern Illinois, 28-point underdogs, took the lead with a 35-yard field goal with 31 seconds remaining. Notre Dame's final field goal attempt was blocked, sealing the victory for the Huskies. Hammock, who was emotional after the game, highlighted the team's unity and family spirit as key factors in their success. Notre Dame, a 28-point favorite, paid Northern Illinois $1.4 million for the game, making the loss even more significant. This victory also marked the first time a MAC team has defeated an AP Top 5 opponent.
