No. 6 Notre Dame has its first touchdown at Navy.
After allowing Navy to score a field goal on the first series of the game, the Fighting Irish moved down the field fairly easily. A 11-yard touchdown pass from quarterback CJ Carr to wide receiver Micah Gilbert put the Irish on the board and gave them a 7-3 lead.
