Notre Dame fell to Northern Illinois, a 28-point underdog, in one of the most stunning defeats in the program's storied history. The then-No. 5 Fighting Irish not only lost to the Huskies at home, but they were manhandled by a Mid-American Conference program that had never beaten an AP top-10 opponent.

There is early ACC women’s basketball action on Thursday, Jan. 9 with the No. 3 Notre Dame Fighting Irish taking on the Wake Forest Demon Deacons at Purcell Pavilion in South Bend, Ind.

Notre Dame's Mitch Jeter added to his playoff legend with a pair of 41-yard field goals, the second one for the winning points with eight seconds left.
