Notre Dame dominated Oregon State in every aspect of Friday’s Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl. Some might even say the Fighting Irish closed their 2023 season by playing grrrrrrrrrreat!
Sorry, I had to.
Notre Dame stopped Oregon State quickly on the game’s opening possession and immediately marched down the field to take a 7-0 lead. That would be rinsed and repeated for most of the afternoon to the tune of a 33-8 Notre Dame victory.
The win puts Notre Dame at 10-3 to finish the 2023 campaign while Oregon State falls to 8-5 with the loss.
