famous love statue that attooed on his right arm. thomas is back there as a kick returner. and that's avery williams, number 2, making the return to the 23. final reminder that goodyear providing you the aerial coverage. everything goodyear has learned making tires that go the distance inspire what they roll into yours. goodyear, more driven. official aerial provider. now, the owls find themselves behind again, kirk. and needing a touchdown. they are 76 yards away, 2:02 to play. >> kirk: think p.j. walker and the boys thought about this, walker and thomas, growing up together, same high school, thought about this opportunity? 2:02 to go, playing notre dame? a top ten team and a chance to >> chris: irish show pressure. walker escapes. darts up the middle. and is knocked down after he

makes a first down at the 38 by redfield. >> kirk: day got in there in a hurry and this time, you saw the ability to escape the pressure by walker and theat athletic ability. they want him to use his feet more. that's an example of needing to do that right there. >> chris: quick 15 yards. first down. delivers incomplete. anderson in traffic, could not make the catch with redfield bearing down on him. >> kirk: talked about these guys growing up, playing at the same high school. elizabeth, new jersey. had walker who was a little bit more heavily recruited, really not that much more. but being recruited, he told matt rhule, you have to look at my running back. you have to look at my running back. now here they are, playing for temple. >> chris: they met as 8-year-olds playing pop warner and basketball together. warner delivers a complete. and short of the first down, a couple yards short is deloatch who makes his first catch, so,

it's been a problem area for the owls. >> kirk: and brian vangorder not getting conservative. bringing pressure. bringing the blitzes from the safeties there on second down. >> chris: walker. loops it down field for anderson -- it would have been a very tough throw, over russell in coverage. and now it comes to a fourth and two. there's a flag down and sheldon day saying the owls grabbed him. hands to the face is the preliminary signal against temple. >> referee: personal foul. hands to the face, offense, number 72. 15-yard penalty. third down. >> kirk: i don't -- i don't see a 72 on the field. >> chris: neither does matt rhule. >> kirk: 75? >> chris: 52, lofton there.

sheldon day. that is a costly penalty for temple. >> chris: rather than a fourth and two, back them up to a third and long from the 32. walker escapes and then throws down field, intercepted! russell jumped in front of john christopher, and the irish are going to hold on. >> kirk: when the game is on the line, you need your better players to step up and make a play. walker's just trying to make a play. steps up in the pocket. looked like he may have had a chance, maybe underestimated the closing speed of russell. heart breaking for p.j. walker, but a good play by russell, who incidentally, against usc, with the game on the line, came up not only with a big interception, but also a tipped pass that led to an interception

so, back-to-back games, one of their better players, late in the game, needs to make a play, needs to do. that's an interception. >> chris: i think christopher thought he had a catch. russell came from out of nowhere to make the pick. the first turnover for temple tonight. owls can stop the clock twice. and prosise tackled and temple will spend the first time-out with 1:02 to go. cassidy hubbarth with the ford wrapup right after the game. we'll have more reaction on this one, as well, as the irish take an important step towards that 11-1 season, staying in playoff consideration, among the top one-loss teams, along with alabama, who plays lsu next week and, of course, stanford. those two teams will collide at the end of the year in palo alto.

you know how it is when you get to november. there are no foregone conclusions. when the rankings come out, the pressure becomes very, very severe and sometimes you have teams that have nothing to lose and they go in to play you and world. >> chris: 7:00 eastern time on espn, the ig naugural of the college football playoff top 25 show. the 12-person committee will be meeting in dallas and come out with their first set of rankings. that they can change a lot. we saw that last year. kizer. a very safe play, just keeps it. actually shakes a tackle. gets out across the 40 and the owls will spend their final

the lg v-10 moments of this saturday weren't any significant surprises. clemson was given a hard fight by nc state, but they dodge the potential look ahead to the noles, and they win it by 15. how about this one? favorite game of the day here, only 123 scores. >> kirk: oh, man. start watching some of those games in the big 12, it's painful. >> chris: goal line stand there to win the little brown jug against the gophers in minnesota. and vangorder never stops coaches. just in case they have to go back out there to defend perhaps a hail mary. he's still coaching them up. >> kirk: one of the things that the committee has to evaluate, some of the games in the big 12, where you see the shootouts and all the points being scored versus a game like this where you see notre dame go into philadelphia and play temple, if you don't realize temple is a really good foot wall team this year -- this is more impressive

of a win than maybe some people realize, because of what kind of team temple has. >> chris: you watch this game tonight, you know how hard-earned this victory was for the irish. they have temple take the lead with an incredible drive. couple of fourth down conversions, as kizer is knocked down just short of the marker. it will be fourth down and temple cannot stop the clock running at 45 seconds. 75-yard drive. did it in six plays. 2:36. and will fuller, philadelphia native, making the catch that may prove to be the game winner for brian kelly's team tonight. >> chris: looks like he's just going to let it run down to that one second, call a time-out. chris, we should say, if notre dame goes on to win this game, and we'll see, it's not over. we all watched the it's not over yet. if they do, this is a heck of a win by the irish, finding a way late, showing that toughness that they've had to show sometimes this year on the road.

they found a way to win. and for temple, they have nothing to apologize for. this is a big, big week for them. a lot of exposure, everybody wondered how they would handle the primetime, the spotlight, playing here where the eagles play, it's sold out, which doesn't happen that afternoon. and they took advantage, in my opinion, of this stage and of this opportunity and they put on a great performance coming up a little bit short. >> chris: did not come out here for moral victories, but i agree with what you said. they showed the country, this is a very, very solid team and a solid football program. this won't be just a one-year blep. you brought up the michigan/michigan state game. we have to run off the final five seconds here. brian kelly knows how good temple's been at blocking punts. >> kirk: five seconds, you snap the ball to the quarterback, you run backwards for three, four seconds and you take a knee. you got a couple personal protectors to take care of him

to help him out. >> chris: you don't even risk a punt here? >> kirk: i wouldn't. not at all. >> chris: and kizer is still involved in the conversation with kelly. >> kirk: if something happens like that against michigan and michigan state, everybody learns from it. you think you've covered it and everybody makes sure they have a little bit more time on thursday in practice to cover these kind of situations. >> chris: they put two seconds back on the clock. seven seconds to play. kizer, by the way, was an excellent punter in high school. he's been a pooch punter occasionally. >> kirk: no, no. >> chris: you could leave him in the game, just boot it down there, though. >> kirk: he could just drop back, throw the ball as high and far as he can, straight up, you know, land it about the 20 yard line. you could do that, too. or throw it out of bounds. just throw it as far as you can out of bounds. the clock will expire. >> chris: kizer in the game. who will do just that. drop back -- lost the ball mow momentary ily and just throws it in the bench.

oh, my goodness! the clock has run out. but very nearly a turnover and can you see that kizer -- knows they got away with something there. >> kirk: i was surprised that he -- i thought he might do that, but i didn't he would step in front of two defenders. 50 gets his hands on the ball and knocks it away. >> chris: if temple had been able to fall on that -- game is over. that perhaps would have had a second or two to throw it to the end zone. but the irish, as kelly congratulates rhule, come into philadelphia and take down a very game temple team. a come from behind fourth quarter rally by number 9, noter dame, to stay in playoff consideration. heather with brian kelly. >> heather: chris, thank you so much. coach, temple didn't make it easy. how did you keep this team believing? >> well, we've got a group that's, you know, veteran and they believe they're going to win, as well.

all year and, you know, we made a play when we needed to. we had too many missed opportunities, obviously, in the red zone, but we showed great resiliency against a very, very good team. >> heather: you've talked this week during your bye week that this is a team that is in march madness mode. how did you get them to play like it's one and done but not pressing too much? >> again, we're playing with a young quarterback. we have to play better around him but he made a huge play when he needed to. we mounted the big drive when we had to come up big and i'm proud of the way our kids competed tonight and found a way on the road to win a good game. >> heather: and your defense stepped up, as well, seeming the win with that interception. what was your reaction as your defense did that? >> we needed to make a play. we hadn't made many plays and it was good to see that play. and we knew we needed to, obviously, offensively, get a first down and obviously made it tough there at the end, but we found a way to win.

confidence level you have in deshone kizer, after throwing two picks in the first half and coming to play in the second. >> it's the confidence that he has in himself. we're going to let him play. he made a checkdown in the red zone. we had a run play on. he checked out of it and threw a great ball in the corner of the end zone. >> heather: congrats on the win. >> thank you. >> chris: heather, thank you. a comprehensive analysis from coach kelly. the at&t strong performance focusing on kizer, who was 23 of 36, 299. had a late touchdown pass, the game winner to fuller. did have a couple of picks, and a great game on the ground, as well. ran for 143 and he's with heather. >> heather: chris, thank you so much. congratulations. we just talked to your coach and the level of confidence that he has in you. he said it's about your confidence level. where is it right now? >> you know, i've gotten a lot of experience in the first, you know, six, seven games of the season and i've been in a lot of situations as a young quarterback and it's kind of right now. the last drive there, that we

were playing, i already went through it once and twice and that experience is what's allowing me to be comfortable. >> heather: describe your mind set after two picks. how do you come out and have the second half performance that you did? >> it's tough. it's frustrating. going into the red zone in the first half two times and end up with two interceptions is unbelievable. that's uncalled for. i'm not allowed to do that. i'm taking that upon myself. i'm trying to fit balls into spots where they're not supposed to be. and that's, you know, that's laziness on my part. i have to make sure to improve with. that but to go into the locker room, see the guys that have the confidence in the irish offense, it makes it easier to play some good football in the second half. >> heather: describe how the play developed and how you guys reacted to your fellow teammate over here, the philly native and will fuller in the final game-winning touchdown drive? >> they were playing a lot of cloud coverage, bringing the safety overtop of will all game. i understood there was going to be a hole in that area that i wasn't able to come across

and once we came out, we came out with a run play. they put a little extra in the box. we broke it down and got into max pro and i trusted the best receiver in the country to get one for me. >> heather: well done. >> thank you. >> heather: chris? >> >> chris: and there is will fuller right there. an established starter has twice engineered fourth quarter converting and touchdown receptions by number 7. >> kirk: when things happen continually, you start to realize that -- i told him this before the game, at the 50 yard line, i said, there's some guys that work their whole careers to have that and there are other guys that are just born with it. and i really think his background as an athlete, he just handled himself when he's under pressure. he performs at his best when the game is on the line. we saw it in the very first time well were introduced to him as a notre dame quarterback in charlottesville when everybody

he stepped up and made plays and hasn't looked back. the clemson game, he played well enough to give them a chance. he's special. he believes in his team and his team more importantly believes in him now as their leader. >> chris: at pittsburgh, wake forest at home. that's their only home game remaining. boston college, then that road trip to stanford, which could be a playoff elimination game. the irish get a scare tonight, halftime. but they go to 16-0 all-time on halloween, to put that to bed. >> kirk: and notre dame is still going to be in the mix with the rankings, but for temple. they are still in the american conference, they still have a chance to go out and play a lot of the teams that are up there. going to against a chance against memphis. they will get a chance against houston. that chance of being a member of a group of five and playing a new year's six is still out there for the owls. >> chris: great point. they didn't get the signature win, but doesn't affect their chance of winning the american conference, which is their goal.

kelly's team marches the field toll snatch the victory away from temple. 24-20. tonight's game produced by be bonnell. for kirk herbstreit, heather cox and our entire crew, we wish you good evening on halloween from philadelphia. time not for the ford wrapup show, including more on this one, we send it now to the studio and cassidy hubbarth. thanks, chris. it's been a halloween filled with tricks and treats. and none more than the end of the miami/duke game. for three weeks in a row, we've had special teams craziness. how about michigan/michigan state? then last week at florida state/georgia and now this. after duke scored with six seconds left, miami down three and here on this crazy kick

eight laterals before finally it ends up in corn elder's hand. somehow he's going to find the end zone. and as you're watching this play -- it took awhile to develop and it took awhile to review. there was a nine-minute review of this touchdown. and after the review -- touchdown stands. miami wins an improbable yes. after an up and down week, miami hitting the huge win. staying in the acc, number 3, clemson, taking on nc state. fourth quarter. clemson up 47-34. deshawn e eshaun watson to ray ray mccloud. watson accounted for six total tds and 383 passing yards in the
