Notre Dame loses on controversial no call at the end to BYU, 28-24

Notre Dame’s weekend trip to Provo ended in heartbreak as a series of officiating miscalls and self-inflicted errors handed BYU a 28–24 victory. The Cougars struck first with a 75-yard opening drive capped by Bear Bachmeier’s touchdown run, while Notre Dame’s offense struggled to sustain momentum after Boubacar Traore’s ejection on a roughing-the-passer/targeting penalty.

CJ Carr’s late fumble on a spike attempt—followed by a missed delay-of-game call on BYU’s defensive line—sealed the first half, and the Irish’s second-half offensive stagnation (including two early punts) left them unable to recover despite defensive stops forcing BYU into field goals. BYU’s Kyler Kasper and Bachmeier orchestrated key drives, including a double-pass touchdown and a one-yard score, while Notre Dame’s offense, without Traore’s impact, faltered in critical moments.
