Brandon Wimbush is walking without a limp but not close to 100%.

Can't imagine Wimbush would be Book's backup today.

Book's first pass is a short screen to Claypool for a gain of 4.

Not a great start for a young QB under center for the Irish offense.

The same as going for two pts when you don't need to.

Classic example of out kicking the coverage. There was no one there when the returner caught it.

So far, disappointed in the offense outside of Book and Adams. Especially pissed at the receivers these first two drives.
