Leftovers & Links: On Javon McKinley, Notre Dame’s OL depth and lack of Irish injuries

Beating Syracuse 45-21 revealed little about No. 2 Notre Dame that will be applicable moving forward aside from reminding viewers what the Irish blue-and-gold looks like against orange-and-white. Fittingly, in a year defined by blue vs. orange, Notre Dame should be wearing its home uniforms against Clemson in Charlotte on Dec. 19.

However, fifth-year receiver Javon McKinley finding the end zone for not only the first time this season but for the first three times confirmed the Irish have found a deep threat even if junior Braden Lenzy remains slowed with a nagging hamstring.
