There weren’t many positives from Saturday nights meltdown, losing 45-14 on a wet night in the Big House. The team as a whole was a no show in a huge rivalry game which absolutely makes zero sense. They got dominated physically, emotionally, and mentally, and it wasn’t even close. This isn’t a fun week for Notre Dame fans and I guarantee it’s worse for the coaches and players — which I don’t think a lot of people realize or are taking into account. It will most certainly be the toughest week of the year.
As for the game, there was one player that really showed some pride, physicality, and some heart for all four quarters, and that’s the reason he’s the unsung hero from Saturday night.
