Aneyas Williams Scores Twice as No. 4 Notre Dame Pulls Away from Wisconsin at Lambeau

Running back Aneyas Williams found the end zone for the second time Saturday night, extending No. 4 Notre Dame’s lead over Wisconsin to 34-14 in a game played at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

Williams’ second score came on a five-yard run with 10:48 remaining in the fourth quarter. The touchdown capped a methodical eight-play, 75-yard drive that consumed 4:26 of game time, helping the Fighting Irish take control late against the Badgers.

Notre Dame’s official football account highlighted the play on social media, crediting the offensive line for opening a lane that Williams powered through.

Media Context: NBC’s College Football Footprint

The game aired nationally on NBC, which remains a key platform in Comcast‘s sports programming portfolio. Comcast, whose media holdings include NBC Sports and Peacock, has leaned on marquee college football matchups as part of its strategy to anchor weekend primetime viewing and drive engagement across its streaming and linear properties.

Investors tracking the media sector will note Comcast shares closed at $26.49 in the most recent session, down 0.64% from a prior close of $26.66, putting the company’s market capitalization at roughly $94.4 billion. As live sports continue to command premium ad rates and draw hard-to-replace audiences, high-profile broadcasts like Saturday’s neutral-site game at the historic Green Bay venue illustrate the kind of content Comcast continues to prioritize for NBC.

Neutral-site college games at NFL stadiums have become an increasingly common draw, blending college football’s audience with the appeal of iconic professional venues — a formula that benefits both the schools and the networks carrying the games.

What to watch

• Notre Dame’s updated national ranking in the weeks following the game.
• NBC’s remaining marquee college football schedule for the season and any announced ratings figures.
• Comcast’s next quarterly earnings report, which may touch on advertising demand tied to its sports calendar.
