Marcus Freeman Makes Notre Dame History After Marshall’s Upset

The honeymoon period for Marcus Freeman seems to be over as he falls 0–3 since taking over the head coaching position at Notre Dame. 

With an upset home loss to Marshall on Saturday, Freeman is the first coach in school history to lose his first three games, dating back to Fighting Irish’s bowl game. The Thundering Herd shocked No. 8 Notre Dame 26–21.

Although Marshall had the lead for two quarters, Notre Dame bounced back with an early touchdown in the fourth as quarterback Tyler Buchner scored the team’s second TD of the day. He then went on to run for a two-point conversion, lifting Notre Dame ahead to 15–12.
