Watch: NIU HC breaks down in interview after Notre Dame upset

Northern Illinois pulled off a massive upset and beat Notre Dame 16-14 at Notre Dame Stadium in South Bend, Ind. on Saturday. The win left head coach Thomas Hammock emotional.

Hammock, who played running back at NIU from 1999-2002, broke down in tears during his postgame interview on NBC after pulling off the huge upset, per Bobby Belt of 1053 The Fan.

“I told them all week, we don’t need luck,” he said. “We just gotta be our best. And it was their best today, and we were able to get it done.”
