Carr helps lead No. 4 Notre Dame past No. 1 Miami, 31-24
(AP) — Notre Dame quarterback C. Carr said his father, former Michigan quarterback Jason Carr, didn’t hold back evaluating his first performance against Miami.
SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Notre Dame quarterback C.J. Carr, who had lost to Miami (27-24) and Texas A&M (41-40) in 2025, led the Fighting Irish to a 31-24 victory over No. 1 Miami in a crucial game. Carr, who stood 6-foot-2 and weighed 215 pounds, passed for three touchdowns and 319 yards. Following a 24-3 halftime lead, Notre Dame fell behind 24-17 after two unsuccessful drives, but Carr's composure allowed a fourth-and-two conversion, leading to a game-winning touchdown pass to Nolan James Jr. to seal the win.
Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman praised Carr's preparation, noting that he is always ready like a starter.
