Notre Dame's dominanat defense let up only 10 points to Michigan State, and their good quarterback Kirk Cousins. Their defense continues to show everyone why they are ranked so high in the polls. Their offense, playing with starting quarterback Dayne Crist, proved that they are a force to be reckoned with as they put up 41 with ease. It's very early in the season but I can already tell it's the best team I have ever coached, and I have coached quiite a few teams. Next week we have to be ready against Stanford. It's gonna be tough but I think we can surprise them too."
"Not sure how many times I have to say it but I am proud of this team.
