SOUTH BEND, Ind. — This fall, Notre Dame remains undefeated deeper into the season than it has since 2012, when its first and only loss came in the national championship game against Alabama. With two games to go, the Irish are eyeing their first College Football Playoff berth, and they’ve gotten to this point thanks to stingy defense and a strong, if at times inconsistent, offense. The Irish have had two quarterbacks this year—first Brandon Wimbush, then Ian Book, and then Wimbush again last Saturday after Book was sidelined with a rib injury—and their star running back came into the year unproven and suspended.
