Since the bye week Notre Dame’s offense and defense have gone in opposite directions in terms of efficiency, and to discuss that Greg brings on Michael Bryan of 18Stripes.com to discuss those changes. Notre Dame started the season with five games post-FSU with teams that featured tough defenses and middling offenses and that has since flipped, with USC and UNC bringing their high-powered offenses to South Bend and dragging along their poor defensive units. That shift has precipitated the change in fortunes for Notre Dame’s units.
Topics include
- Adding context to the Marcus Freeman/Clark Lea comparisons
- Reasons for the drop in efficiency defensively
- The offense coming alive
- The sustainability of a Jack Coan led offense
- The sudden surge in the offense capitalizing on their available yards
- College football playoff discussion

UHND.com’s Notre Dame football and recruiting podcast hosted by Frank Vitovitch and Greg Flammang. Come for the football, stay for Greg campaigning for Kyle to play offense.
Notre Dame football’s independence status feels like it’s in a perilous state at the moment with conference realignment potentially sending the Irish on a collision course with either the B1G or ACC in the near future. We talked at length about the pros and cons of each and how we think this all plays out. We also dove into the commit-a-palooza that happened last week.
- Greg has a rational take on which conference he’d prefer (if forced into one) while Frank’s rationale is a whole lot pettier
- How surprised we both were with the suddenness of USC & UCLA’s move
- Why we don’t like where all this is headed
- Notre Dame’s five massive commitments in six days
- Some bad news on the recruiting front re: Jason Moore and Richard Young
- A multiple QB system in 2022 or nah?
- Lots of Q&A
