In many ways, this game felt like the inverse of the Cincinnati game for Notre Dame’s defense. They didn’t give up explosive plays (only two plays of 20+ yards against them) and they held Virginia Tech down to a low total per play (4.4 YPP), but they had lapses with situational defense.
3rd down has been great for Notre Dame over the last month, but this game wasn’t a good one in that respect. They allowed conversions 43.
