Rewatch Notes | Notre Dame Offense vs USC

The only way Notre Dame’s offense could have started worse was if Drew Pyne threw a pick-six on the first series.

Going three-and-out to start the game was a disaster in a game where they only had three true possessions in the first half. Turning the ball over on downs on the second possession was just as bad.

From that point on, the only thing that stopped Notre Dame’s offense was themselves.

USC sold out to stop the run and the Irish greatly benefited from that.
