After losing to Texas on Monday, Notre Dame was the subject of a joke by the social media department of a popular fast food chain.
Notre Dame came back from a 31-14 deficit in the third quarter to force overtime by blocking a point after touchdown attempt and returning it the other way for a score with less than four minutes to play in the fourth quarter. However, in the second overtime period, Notre Dame only managed a field goal on its possession. Texas responded with a rushing touchdown by Tyrone Swoopes for a 50-47 victory.
Despite leaving Austin with a loss, Whataburger suggested a way the Fighting Irish could still be winners.

Ouch. Gotta give them credit for capitalizing on the moment though. Well played, indeed.
