Prediction Time: Defense

Last week I made some predictions for the 2019 season on the offensive side of the ball.  This week we will tackle the defense.  It would be a tall order for the 2019 defense to improve upon many of the impressive numbers they logged in 2018, but I do think some numbers can be improved.  The key will be to not let many slip.  What can we expect from the 2019 Irish defense?  

We will start with the most important defensive stats—points allowed.
