After unranked Marshall went into South Bend and upset No. 8 Notre Dame on Saturday 26–21 as a three touchdown underdog, Thundering Herd coach Charles Huff heaped praise on his team for their effort in the road victory.
“I’m really proud of how my players competed,” Huff told NBC after the game.
“Notre Dame’s a hell of a football team, hats off to them. But our guys all week, we talked about control what we can control. We have good players, too. We knew if we didn’t beat ourselves that we’d have a chance. The kids did a heck of a job. Our staff did a heck of a job. I couldn’t be more proud,” Huff added.
