DeShone Kizer came off the bench and delivered a miracle for Notre Dame early in the 2015 season.
Notre Dame and Virginia will meet on the football field for just the fifth time in history Saturday, when the Fighting Irish welcome the Cavaliers to South Bend for just the second time ever.
The year was 2015 and Notre Dame was fresh off a 38-3 destruction of Texas in Week 1. Next up was the program's first ever trip to the state of Virginia when it took on the Cavaliers on Sept. 12. The back-and-forth affair went into Notre Dame's favor in the third quarter as Malik Zaire found Will Fuller for a long touchdown and CJ Prosise dashed for a 24-yard touchdown run. The 26-14 lead wouldn't hold however as a pair of Virgina touchdowns gave the Cavaliers a 27-26 lead with just 1:54 to play.
Instead, DeShone Kizer rose to the challenge in the closing seconds, finding Will Fuller for another long touchdown, and breaking the Hoos hearts along the way. Check out the highlight that never gets old below.
