Most Points Given Up in Notre Dame History...
This is why Coach Kelly had to make the change in defensive coordinators.
In 128 seasons of Notre Dame Football -- we have never given up more points (134) -- in the first four games of a season...
NEVER.
The closest was Charlie Weis' 2007 team that gave up 133 points in their first four games -- on their way to a 3 - 9 season.
Here's the good news -- WE CAN STILL TURN THIS THING AROUND -- and I believe WE WILL!
