Alabama Football: The Irish have two incorrect assumptions about beating the Alabama Crimson Tide.
For Notre Dame to beat the Alabama football team, hopes and expectations must be realized by the Irish. Notre Dame has an excellent coaching staff, led by Brian Kelly. Their task is a gameplan that keeps the Fighting Irish close enough, maybe the Crimson Tide will beat itself.
Burning time off the clock with drives ending in Notre Dame touchdowns is job No. 1. That will be harder than the Irish expect. But, doing it successfully is not enough.
