Kelly Needs To Simplify Notre Dame Defense

Notre Dame completed their 2015 season with a loss to Ohio State in the Fiesta Bowl to finish 10-3. Their two regular season losses to Clemson and Stanford by a total of four points showed how close the Irish came to making the College Football playoffs.

Injuries

One of the biggest stories was the amount of injuries the Fighting Irish faced especially on offense. They lost Malik Zaire, Taren Folston, Durham Smythe early for the year and others for parts of the season. Defensively, the Irish lost Jarron Jones and James Onwualu for most of the season.
