On the offensive: Cierre Wood's career-long 62-yard run was the lone TD in the first half and took some life out of Owen Field early.
Getting defensive: Manti Te'o was a beast, with 11 tackles, a key interception and a Heisman-highlight-in-wait sack of Oklahoma QB Landry Jones.
The number: 15. Rushing yards allowed by Notre Dame on 24 carries.
Still talking about: Oklahoma's Blake Bell -- aka, The Belldozer -- scoring the first rushing TD against ND all year and then having it called back on a holding penalty.
Looking ahead: A stretch of three eminently winnable November games begins with a home contest against Pitt.
