This time, a personal foul aided the Irish and Dexter Williams rushed 14 yards for a touchdown as Notre Dame leads 28-7 with 4:47 left in the half.
Spartan Stadium stood and roared as Scott burst through the middle and neared the goal line for a potential touchdown, but he was stripped of the football by Irish cornerback Shaun Crawford.
The Irish nearly scored when St. Brown caught a pass as he snuck behind Spartans defensive back Matt Morrissey in the end zone — but Brown’s right foot was out of bounds.
Receiver Darrell Stewart Jr. caught a 4-yard TD pass from quarterback Brian Lewerke to cut the Notre Dame lead to 14-7 with 6:33 left in the first quarter.
The Michigan State (2-0) defense has yet to allow an offensive touchdown, but that will be tough to repeat against a Notre Dame (2-1) team that compiled 515 rushing yards last week against Boston College.
