ESPN RECAP

Everett Golson, No. 6 Notre Dame get past North Carolina

SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Everett Golson and Notre Dame did just enough to overcome their own mistakes and beat North Carolina . The 50-43 victory Saturday, the highest-scoring game in the 84-year-history of Notre Dame Stadium, wasn't secure for the sixth-ranked Irish until Ben Koyack recovered the Tar Heels' onside kick with 47 seconds left. "We managed to find a way to battle back and get up on them and score 15 points late in the game and get a win," Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said. "There are many, many things I could delve into, but I would say the thing that points up for me is that our guys know how to win football games. They found a way to win this one." It marked the second straight game the Irish (6-0) rallied to win in the fourth quarter. Last week, they beat Stanford with a touchdown with 61 seconds left. The Irish are at No. 1 Florida State (6-0) next week.
