Another week in the books for Notre Dame, and it's another loss after Duke beat the Irish 38-35 Saturday at Notre Dame Stadium. We're going to present our weekly report card for the Fighting Irish, and as you can imagine, it's not going to be pretty.
You'll have to excuse the relative cursory look we'll be taking at the positive aspects of Notre Dame's performance against Duke, because, well, the negatives far outweighed the positives. We know what's good; everyone can see the offense racking up yardage and putting up more than enough points to win most games.
