Coach Kelly Talks Win Over Florida State...

Irish "Shake Off the Rust" in Win Over FSU...

 

It wasn't pretty...

Notre Dame's 42 -26 win had some highlights -- and some low lights, as the Seminoles took the lead on two separate occasions in the first half...

THE GOOD:

  • Two running backs going for more than 100 yards rushing
  • McKinley -- over 100 yards receiving
  • Not sure how often that has happened at Notre Dame

THE NOT SO GOOD:

  • Two turnovers deep in our own territory -- 10 points to FSU
  • Tackling -- worst we've seen this year
  • Pass defense was the worst we've seen this year

I'm not going to be concerned -- unless it continues into the first half of next week...
