No. 3 Notre Dame has arguably the best defense in the country, and we've already seen one big play early against the Michigan State Spartans.
Fighting Irish safety Luke Talich, in for the injured Brautae Johnson, went up and grabbed an Alessio Milivojevic pass for an interception with 2:43 left in the first quarter.
Give the play a look below.
Can't just leave Luke open like that 🤷♂️#GoIrish☘️ | @LukeTalich
