The Notre Dame football team dominated the Pittsburgh Panthers and progressed more than in any game this year.
Many college football writers (including those here at Slap the Sign) believed the Irish would struggle with the Pitt Panthers because of their propensity to stop the run and Notre Dame’s inability to throw the ball deep.
The Irish shattered all expectations with 312 yards from the right arm of 5th-year senior quarterback Ian Book.
A connection between Book and graduate transfer wide receiver Ben Skowronek changed the entire complexion of Saturday’s 45-3 rout of the Panthers.
