Greg was back on the ISD YouTube page with another Buy/Sell video, this time talking about the Notre Dame defense that held the explosive Ohio State offense to 21 points last weekend. Yesterday, Greg talked about some buy/sell questions on the Irish offense that’s worth checking out as well.
- Is Notre Dame’s defense elite?
- Is the Irish Secondary improved?
- Can the defense carry Notre Dame in 2022?

The play calling is awful. Guys look unsure. They had better get this figured out, or this season will get away from them.
I hope that the offence will not require being “bailed out” by the defense. The DL is very good. However, I believe that not so many 3s and outs in a row would help any defense. I feel that the offense must step up for the defense to become elite.
Rocky, I agree. That sort of second half offense is an abusive act against or own defense, and typically fatal.
Also, someone on a different post praised the new ND staff/team for
playing a cleaner game
than BK’s LSU bunch. I could not care less about LSU, but I saw a remarkably flag riddled game Saturday for BOTH ND and OSU. Did we see the same game? I know first games can be rough and sloppy, but please – these are supposed to be two top rated teams. We can do better. Another post on that
page lamented that our special teams looked Kelly-like (2015, 2016 especially, but other years as well).
My thoughts exactly. Fix this stuff now.
