Glenn Earl wasn’t supposed to jump. Notre Dame’s season would have taken a precipitous drop if he didn’t. Earl was supposed to be guarding against a fake when Air Force kicker Dave Adams attempted a game-winning 28-yard field-goal attempt as time expired in regulation. Earl jumped instead and got a hand on it, clearing the way for Joey Getherall to score his third TD of the game in overtime as No. 19 Notre Dame beat Air Force 34-31.
