The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are quite simply, a bad football team. Whatever the reason and whatever the circumstances may be, the Irish have been unable to get it done this year. Notre Dame is 2-4 in what has been the easiest first six games in recent memory. If the team was even just “okay” they would be at least 4-2.

This team is most definitely not “okay.”
The good news is that on the surface, it doesn’t appear to be a complete dumpster fire. The team still seems to be playing hard and at no time do I believe that they had “packed it in,” nor do I think they will moving forward.
