FO talks Irish

For the Notre Dame fans out there

Offensively, the Irish appear poised to keep rolling—if not quite at the level of last season, then close to it. Obviously Kelly’s track record at Cincinnati suggests he is capable creating an offensive juggernaut, and there are athletes all over the field that can fill the void left by quarterback Jimmy Clausen and wide receiver Golden Tate. One red flag from last year’s Bearcats team that I’ll be watching closely with Notre Dame was their boom-or-bust tendency—their three-and-out rate was abnormally high for an elite offense. If Dayne Crist can move the chains on that first series of nearly every drive, they’ll be in great shape.
