Notre Dame tight end James Flanigan made history feel personal at Lambeau Field on Saturday, hauling in a three-yard touchdown catch as the fourth-ranked Fighting Irish rolled past Wisconsin forty-one to thirteen.

Across the Atlantic in Serie A, Juventus and AC Milan played out a tense draw after Federico Gatti equalized deep in stoppage time to salvage a point for the Bianconeri.
