No. 9 Notre Dame routed Syracuse 70-7 on November 22, 2025, scoring 35 points in the first quarter and building a 49-0 halftime lead, both school records. Jeremiyah Love rushed for 171 yards and three touchdowns on eight carries, including a 68-yard score, while the defense forced three turnovers, returning two interceptions and a blocked punt for touchdowns. The 70-point outburst marked Notre Dame’s highest total since 1932 and set a modern-era scoring record. Syracuse, winless in seven games since its quarterback’s injury, managed only a late touchdown by walk-on Joe Filardi. The victory extended Notre Dame’s winning streak to nine games and solidified its College Football Playoff prospects.
