Ladies and gentlemen, the nearly two-week gap between the Pitt game and tomorrow is nearly past us, so breathe a sigh of relief and crack a Hamm’s Premium. The Bye Week is over.
Tomorrow, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish will take on the Navy Midshipmen in San Diego at the very smooth-sounding San Diego County Credit Union Stadium.
The Irish come into the game ranked #3 in the country and sporting a flawless 7-0 record despite a number of flawed performances against some less-than-stellar teams. Nevertheless, the Irish’s stout defense and explosive offense have managed to get them within 5 definitely winnable games of an undefeated record and the program’s first College Football Playoff berth.
