Though the 45-31 score doesn’t indicate it, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish defeated the Boston College Eagles with relative ease yesterday. Fittingly, Brian Kelly notched his 100th career with at Notre Dame while coaching in his home state of Massachusetts. The win moved Kelly into a tie with Lou Holtz for the 2nd most victories ever at Notre Dame, trailing only Knute Rockne’s 105 victories. Depending how the rest of the season plays out, Kelly could conceivably hold the wins record by the end of the season. As an ardent Kelly supporter in the past, I have received plenty of blowback from other fans and friends about my stance on Kelly.
