Notre Dame lost an old fashioned defensive slugfest last night to the Georgia Bulldogs. The Irish’s highly touted offensive line got dominated by the Georgia front seven while Notre Dame’s much maligned defensive line shined. As such, our weekly Four Horsemen post here is pretty light on offensive players but is full of some defenders who played well enough for Notre Dame to win this game.
1. Drue Tranquill
That was one of the best games of football we’ve seen from Drue Tranquill. He is clearly taking to the new ROVER position very well and he was in on another turnover this week with his 3rd quarter interception of Jake Fromm.
