We will win by scoring more points than they do. ND will come out of Ireland with a W if they let the line punish the navy defencethe entire first half .

If we stop their option and don't turn the ball over.

Honestly though, it's bad to say but all ND has to do is just show up. I would be shocked if ND doesn't win by at least 2TDs.

it's pretty much a lock as long as we dont beat ourselves... Even if we beat ourselves, this game should be a victory.

ND should easily win this game but turnovers are always the big x-factor. We saw that last year

O-line needs to step up and dominate. D needs to play fast and shutdown the dive.

Stop the option. Even losing Floyd and Wood we should be able to line up with two TEs and play some power football, that'll score a few points for us. Important part is just stopping the option, watch the damn FB!

I think Diaco has figured it out

All in all, I really like the direction under Diaco, but I'm ready for us to shutdown some big time offenses like we used to do in the Holtz era. It would be great to see us give up 16 ppg as opposed to the 20.whatever we gave up last year.

I'm with you, but it's really quite amazing that we gave up as little as we did considering how often we turned the ball over.

Am I the only one worried about Navy coming out in some strange offensive sets again? Didn't Kelly allude to this in the 2010 game?

With a month to prepare, it wouldn't surprise me if Navy came out in the spread (only half kidding).

Good point. The lack of adjustments on D killed me in the 2010 game. That was painful to watch. Hopefully, ND has a plan B in case Navy comes out with some obscure offensive scheme. But I think if we control the line, it won't matter which offense they run.
