The Notre Dame Irish posted their first victory of the season (1-6) and did it in convincing style, beating Oklahoma 46-12.

Led by their strong pack, the Irish dominated both lineouts and scrums, as well as controlling the ball in loose play.

The Irish continued to take advantage of the forwards and pounded the ball inch by inch, where it paid off in multiple cases. Forwards Nolan Welsh and Tyler Plantz were able to touch the ball across the try line.

As the forwards wore down the Sooners with slow ball and hard, physical play, the Irish backs were able to take advantage. Inside center Ryan Robinson was able to get through the line on multiple occasions and it paid off twice, as he recorded two tries. Winger/Flyhalf Dominic Carsaro was also able to break through the strethched the defense and scored under the posts.
