After a long offseason, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish gave fans abroad and at home something to cheer about with a dominating SCORE over the Navy Midshipmen in Dublin, Ireland. The Irish scored touchdowns on its first five possessions of the game, and never gave the Middies any kind of chance to get in the game.
Notre Dame made the running game a focus early, and they were rewarded with touchdown runs by Audric Estime and Jadarian Price. Estime was a force for much of the game (16 carries for 95 yards and 1 touchdown), but did put the ball on the wet ground — even though the Irish retained possession.
