Q&A with From the Rumble Seat

I'd say there has definitely been some worry about the quality of opponents at the start of the season when comparing Tech and Notre Dame. The worry isn't necessarily about being up for the test, but fans have been concerned about some of the younger guys not getting that sense of an intense and competitive game with the first two weeks. Despite Texas basically being a cupcake for the Irish in that blowout, Notre Dame got their down-to-the-wire game in last week, and that's something that can only help a team going forward. The first quarter should be indicative of how the Jackets step up to the competition right away, and then it should be game on.
