Watch: Notre Dame QB Coan finds Austin as Irish take big lead over UVA

Coan throws his 3rd touchdown pass, this one to Kevin Austin

The Irish offense had gone quiet for the majority of the third quarter, but after Virginia went for it on 4th-down and didn’t complete the attempt, it was game on. The Irish marched down the field in under 2-and-a-half minutes, on just 5 plays that spanned 61-yards to add to their lead.

It was big play after big play, first a trick play to wide receiver Braden Lenzy for 31-yards. Then quarterback Jack Coan found tight end Michael Mayer for 11-yards. After two short runs on third down, Coan found wide receiver Kevin Austin in the back of the end zone to extend their lead over Virginia 28-0.
