We’re going to need him to keep doing what he’s doing. I underthrew it and he went up there and made an unbelievable play. Just like did last week with the post, Jayden Thomas went up there and made a play. “He has all summer, he did in the spring. “JT has worked really hard,” Pyne said after throwing for 262 yards and three scores on 22-of-28 passing. That came from sophomore receiver Jayden Thomas on his first career touchdown catch, climbing up and above a BYU defender to pull in the 30-yard score. Yet he did not have the best catch of the game. And he provided the consistency needed even when the Cougars defensive front stopped Notre Dame in its tracks. He set the program record for catches by a tight end in a career. Mayer broke his own school record for catches in a game by a tight end, 11 exceeding a mark of nine he had previously reached twice. I challenged our guys, we have to match their intensity.” “I told them at halftime (leading 18-6), this team wasn’t going to quit. “We knew BYU was going to be a tough team,” Irish head coach Marcus Freeman said. Then, the Irish sought him out in the end zone, junior quarterback Drew Pyne twice connecting with his favorite target for scores.įor precision’s sake, it should be acknowledged Mayer fell to the grass on both of his touchdown catches, but obviously at that point, he had inflicted the necessary damage on BYU (4-2). He did, however, firmly establish his All-American candidacy while breaking some Irish records.Īt first, Notre Dame (3-2) leaned on Mayer to convert third downs, moving the chains on five separate third downs by the end of the game. Officially wearing that uniform this weekend, Mayer did anything but fall down in Notre Dame’s 28-20 victory against the No. doing his best Zach Galifianakis impersonation.
