With the Notre Dame Fighting Irish a little more than 24 hours away from facing the Virginia Tech Hokies in what is sure to be a very lively crowd inside Lane Stadium, I sat down to briefly divulge a few last thoughts about the game.
It’s a common theme that in big road games like these, offensive coordinators love to try and score quickly to “silence the crowd.” In my view, however, this could be a mistake if Notre Dame tries to do just that with a play or two in the first series designed to push the ball downfield quickly.
