I never expected to be writing this week’s review of Notre Dame’s defense reeling after a loss to North Carolina State, and with Notre Dame having a record of 2-4. I can’t even remember the last time Notre Dame was 2-4 at the mid-season mark. I’m not one to point fingers, but I don’t think that the defense was to blame for this week’s loss. And yes, absolutely, playing in a hurricane was a definite challenge for both teams, but somehow Notre Dame could not overcome the obstacles placed in front of them. How did the Notre Dame defense perform this week against the North Carolina State Wolfpack?
