Part 3/6:
The second half proved to be a showcase of Notre Dame's exceptional skill on all fronts. Jaden Harrison's electrifying 98-yard kickoff return marked an impressive play, showcasing the third phase of the game—special teams—which is often overlooked but critical in tightly contested games. Within a mere 54 seconds of gameplay, they surged ahead to 20-3.
Despite Georgia's effort to respond, which saw them trailing at 20-17 late in the game, they faltered in critical moments and failed to convert on fourth downs. Notably, the defensive pass interference call sparked heated debates among analysts, but they agreed on the effectiveness of Notre Dame's defense throughout the game.
