END OF THE RAINBOW: No. 17 Duke football falls to No. 11 Notre Dame on final-minute touchdown

A ton was on the line for the Blue Devils Saturday night: a first 5-0 start in 29 seasons, a pair of top-15 wins and a stamp on the college football world marking “We. Are. Here.” Both Duke and visiting Notre Dame played a physical game and dug deep in their respective bags of tricks to find ways to punch holes in the staunch opposing defenses, but it was No. 11 Notre Dame who came out on top, 21-14, at a raucous Wallace Wade Stadium.
