Nick Shepkowski’s Notre Dame-North Carolina Game Ball Awards:
Offensive: Kyren Williams
In a game that saw Notre Dame control the entire second half despite not extending the lead until late, there was no better offensive player on the field for either side Friday than Kyren Williams who continued his stellar sophomore campaign with 144 total yards and three touchdowns.
Defensive: Adetokunbo Ogundeji
The defensive game ball could go roughly seven different ways but to me nobody came up bigger than Ogundeji who recorded a pair of sacks but was also huge in the run game and showcased his speed in chasing down runners as well. In a performance that was full of defensive stars, his shined the brightest.
