Late field goal seals Notre Dame win over Texas A&M

Notre Dame kicker Mitch Jeter put the dagger in Texas A&M with a late field goal that sealed the victory.

Field goals don’t get as much attention as touchdowns unless they win the game at the final gun. But Mitch Jeter’s kick with 30 seconds remaining sealed the deal for Notre Dame over Texas A&M.

Jeremiyah Love scored the go-ahead touchdown with 1:54 seconds left in the game, but Texas A&M had one more chance to tie the game. The Aggies went four-and-out, however, giving the Irish the ball back with 1:34 to play. Notre Dame ran the ball three times and bled a minute off the clock before calling on Jeter, knowing that a successful field goal would put the game out of reach.

Jeter drilled it and the Irish are now 1-0 after winning their season opener.
