First Quarter


The game kicked off with Notre Dame setting an aggressive tone early on. The Irish scored 14 points while holding the Hogs to just a field goal. CJ Carr led the charge for ND, completing passes that set up scoring opportunities and establishing a rhythm that would carry throughout the game.


Second Quarter


Notre Dame's offense exploded in the second quarter, adding another 28 points to their tally. Jadarian Price was instrumental during this period, rushing for significant yardage and securing one touchdown. Meanwhile, Luke Talich's interception halted an Arkansas drive, further solidifying ND's control over the game.


Third Quarter


After halftime adjustments by both teams, Notre Dame continued their momentum into the third quarter by adding another touchdown while keeping Arkansas scoreless. Boubacar Traore made his presence felt on defense with a crucial sack that disrupted any potential comeback from ARK.


Fourth Quarter


In the final quarter of play, ND added one more touchdown to seal their victory while maintaining a strong defensive stance against ARK's attempts to close the gap. Adon Shuler contributed significantly on defense with multiple tackles and forced fumbles that kept ARK at bay.


The Notre Dame Fighting Irish post-match stats highlighted an impressive performance across all facets of play: passing efficiency stood out as CJ Carr threw for four touchdowns without interceptions; rushing efforts were bolstered by Jeremiya Love’s two touchdowns; and defensively they recorded three sacks along with key turnovers.
