Notre Dame receiver hauls in catch of the year candidate
There is a new candidate for catch of the year in college football.
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish were at the Navy 38-yard line on 1st and 10 up 7-0.
Drew Pyne took the snap out of the gun, evaded pressure and launched a deep ball to Braden Lenzy.
The ball was underthrown, so Lenzy had to adjust somehow. So how did he do it?
