Heres why Notre Dames two-point conversion attempt

vallieklein — Wed, 31 Aug 2022 05:00:52 +0000

Notre Dame's on a two-point conversion that allowed No. 12 Clemson to escape with a 24-22 win on Saturday.Here's a breakdown of Mateen Cleaves Jersey the play, and why it didn't work.ND-CLEMSON: | PHOTOS: Frame 1:It's run all the way. Clemson defensive tackle Carlos Isiah Thomas Jersey Watkins does his job by forcing a double team with the center and guard. Defensive end Kevin Dodd pushes the tackle so that Kizer doesn't have the option to bounce outside.Frame 2:It becomes two Notre Dame blockers on three Clemson defenders in the running lane. Clemson linebacker Ben Boulware makes the biggest Chauncey Billups Jersey play by taking out lead blocker C.J. Prosise. That allows Travis Blanks to step into the hole as the free defender.Frame 3:Blanks steps up to Kizer and the four Clemson defenders Dennis Rodman Jersey are able to bottle up the play and stop Kizer short of the goal line. Watkins makes the tackle. Once Watkins and Dodd do their job and Boulware fills on Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Jersey the lead blocker this play has little chance to work.
