It’s hard to figure out what went wrong with the Trees, but they don’t have the outstanding players of the past. They have a 6’6″ QB who was the 3rd highest QB in that recruiting class that included Trevor Lawrence(1). In any event, ND has lately out recruited them and they are in a 3
Georgia Tech came to ND on Senior Day and ran into a buzz saw. Everything bad that could happen to Georgia Tech did including MTA’s fumble scoop for a 70 yard TD. Foskey punched the ball out of QB Jordan Yates and then Foskey blocked Yates all the way down the field. Yates also threw
