Here's What We Have To Be Concerned About Today


If you did not watch the game and just looked at Notre Dame's offensive stats for the game -- you'd be hard pressed to think the Irish won the game, let alone by 28 points...

Here's what is concerning:

  • For the fourth straight week -- Notre Dame was lousy on 3rd down:
    • USC game:  ND was 3 for 10 on third down
    • Louisville game:  ND was 3 for 13 on third down
    • Duke game:  ND was 3 for 15 on third down
    • Ohio State game:  ND was 5 for 10 on third down
  •  The average this season for college football is 66.9 offensive plays per game
    • USC game:  ND ran 49 plays on offense
    • Louisville game:   ND ran 55 plays on offense
    • Duke game:  ND ran 63 plays on offense
    • Ohio State game:  ND ran 64 plays on offense
       

 We have to improve our offensive performance going forward.
