Youth Movement and Growing Comfort Lead to Three Game Irish Win Streak

Irish Head Coach Marcus Freeman noted the electric atmosphere at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium last Saturday for the Notre Dame-BYU game. The Irish faithful were so loud, he said, “It sounded like a home game.”

The Irish felt about as comfortable in Vegas as they do at home in South Bend. Comfort levels are rising for their three-time starter quarterback Drew Pyne, for the offensive line, their running backs, and wide receiver Jayden Thomas.

“Our offensive line is just getting better… five guys are just gelling and really communicating and executing at a high level,” he said, as the offensive line continues to improve and open up holes the size of an actual bus for running backs Chris Tyree, Logan Diggs, and the new “Bus,” Audric Estime.
